From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The
Foundation for Broadcast Culture
(
Korean
:
放送文化振興會
), is the only institution dedicated to the promotion of broadcasting in South Korea. Partly to address concerns following the country's 1987 democratic reforms, the
National Assembly
established the Foundation for Broadcast Culture to insulate MBC from political influence and KBS. The foundation was established as a
not-for-profit statutory corporation
in accordance with "The Foundation for Broadcast Culture" Act (Ordinance No. 6137) first formulated on December 26, 1988.
[1]
It is a major shareholder of MBC (
Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation
) to which 70% of the stocks of MBC was donated as "the initial fund for the promotion of broadcasting culture" from the government.
[2]
Except for the corporate structure, the concept of the foundation is similar to
Channel 4 Television Corporation
in the United Kingdom (formerly a subsidiary of the British
IBA
).
