The two Internet-Protocol TV (IPTV) service providers have submitted to the demands of powerful broadcasting companies, agreeing to charge their users additional fees for viewing popular terrestrial broadcasting content such as dramas and sports shows.
KT and Hanarotelecom both began to charge their users 500 won per program to watch MBC content within a week of its airing. The same fee will also be charged for KBS and SBS programs from Feb. 15. However, after one week, the programs can be viewed for free."
