Three Main Kinds of Channels in Korea
Although I blogged about specific programs such as One Night Two Day Season 2 and Korean song TV shows, I forgot to mention three major broadcasting channels that I will mostly talk about in this blog. They are SBS, KBS, and MBC. SBS stands for Seoul Broadcasting System. KBS stands for Korea Broadcasting System. MBC stands for Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation. These three broadcasting systems are shown around the world and all of Korea, even the small islands.
In this post, I will focus on SBS which is Seoul Broadcasting System. SBS’s representative dramas are Sandglass (1995), All In (2003), Stairway to Heaven (2003-4), Lovers in Paris (2004), Something happened in Bali (2004), Money’s War (2007), Iljimae (2008), Gourmet (2008), Brilliant Legacy (2009), Giant (2010), and Secret Garden (2010-2011). Out of these, I like Gourmet and lljimae the most. Gourmet is one of the first drama that made food the main focus of the drama. In Gourmet, the actor’s names are Kim Rae Won (Lee Sung Chan), Nam Sang Mi (Kim Jin Soo), Kim So-yeon (Yoon Joo Hee), Won Ki Joon (Min Woo), Choi Bool Am (Chef Oh). In the 2008 SBS drama awards, Kim So-yeon received the Female Supporting Awards - Special Planning Drama. Also Iljimae is a drama that is based on the Chinese folktale from the Ming Dynasty. In Iljimae, the actor’s names are Lee Jun Ki (Gyeom/Yong/Iljimae), Han Hyo Joo (Eun Chae), Lee Young Ah (Bong Soon), and Park Si-Hoo (Cha Dol/Shi Hoo).
