방미통위 표류 언제까지?…1분기 정상화 사실상 무산

South Korea's broadcast and media regulator (방미통위) faces significant leadership vacancies that delay critical policy decisions on OTT regulation and media law, creating a regulatory vacuum as global streaming platforms rapidly expand live content and advertising models. The policy stalemate particularly impacts the cable TV and traditional media industries, which face mounting uncertainty about future regulatory frameworks and funding mechanisms. Without swift committee normalization, regulatory uncertainty will intensify across the media sector, undermining the government's ability to respond to fast-moving industry changes.
