Korean Educational Broadcasting System (Korean: 한국교육방송공사, romanized: Hanguggyoyugbangsong-gongsa) or EBS is a South Korean educational public broadcaster and radio network covering South Korean territory, and the only major South Korean radio and television network without a separate regional service. It was established as KBS 3 and KBS Educational Radio in the 1980s, and became an independent corporation in 1990.
Funding
[edit]Though nominally a public broadcasting entity, EBS gets most of its yearly budget from advertisements and sales revenue. In 2012, 72.1% of its revenue came from textbook sales, publications and ad revenues on its TV Radio and internet platforms, while the rest came from TV license fees (EBS gets 3% of the total License Fee being collected by the Korean Broadcasting System) and government grants.[1]
Channels
[edit]- EBS1 — EBS' main terrestrial channel for premium documentaries, preschool and youth program. (Channel 10.1)
- EBS2 — EBS' second terrestrial channel. (Channel 10.2)
- EBS FM — A EBS' radio channel, the station focuses mainly on language learning. The actual CSAT listening comprehension examinations are broadcast on this station annually at 8:40 AM and 1:10 PM on the day of the CSAT.
