'보편적 시청권' 강화법 국회 과방위 통과…방통진흥원 설립 가시화

South Korea passed broadcasting legislation requiring terrestrial networks to provide live coverage of major sports events through OTT and traditional TV, directly addressing concerns about JTBC's exclusive control and expensive resale of broadcasting rights. The law guarantees universal public access while consolidating public broadcasting institutions into a unified authority, marking a structural transformation in Korea's media ecosystem and regulatory approach to digital-era broadcasting.
