Media's watchdog role: Samsung slush fund and BBK scandal

The media circles in South Korea confronted numerous issues such as the BBK scandal and a Samsung's slush fund in the second half of 2007, but there was growing criticism that local news media did not play its role in monitoring the developments accurately. News media showed different approaches toward then presidential hopeful Lee Myung-bak in accordance with its political stances. Some conservative media outfits were said to be hesitant in covering the BBK scandal, while progressive and liberal media outlets raised the questions about the BBK issue, stressing the need to probe the candidate's character. In particular, the newspapers parted ways visibly following the prosecutor's announcement that there is no ground for wrongdoing. A group of media personalities took issue with the credibility of the prosecutors' probe, while others claimed that critical news articles on the BBK scandal were biased, citing the results of the investigation. The BBK scandal highlighted the political stances of General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 7

the news media, which in turn raised the issue about investigating the presidential hopefuls' background because such coverage could affect the election results. The Korean Broadcasting Commission's election supervisory committee sent a warning to MBC Radio for broadcasting Erica Kim's unilateral allegation. MBC and some civic organizations protested the KBC's decision, arguing that such a move would force the media to give up on investigating the qualification of presidential hopefuls, which is a basic obligation of the media. Some critics proposed that Korean newspapers should reveal their support for a presidential hopeful. The logic is that if newspaper editorials publicly support a candidate, other news articles will tend to seek a neutral and objective perspective. The Journalists Association of Korea conducted a survey of 303 reporters in August of 2007, and found that 56.6 percent of respondents favored the proposal, while 38.5 percent opposed such a move. But there was also lingering worry about the side effects. As long as there is no guarantee for editorial independence, news articles in other sections are feared to produce biased news articles. While the BBK scandal illustrated the political positions of newspapers, the Samsung slush fund coverage dented the traditional role of new media as a critical monitor of capitalist powers. In August 2007, a lawyer named Kim Yong-cheol dropped a bombshell announcement about the existence of slush funds at Samsung. Some news media, however, reported the issue in a cursory way, focusing only on facts. In particular, a handful of newspapers highlighted the counter argument from Samsung and raised the credibility of Kim, prompting complaints about going soft on Samsung. Some economic dailies even went so far as to oppose a special investigation into the Samsung scandal in the name of preventing an economic crisis. Such a pro-business move by the dailies came under fire. Another issue was that Samsung threatened to cut advertisement for newspapers that reported the scandal aggressively. Since the scandal broke out, there was no Samsung advertisement on Hankyoreh and KyungHyang Daily for about fifteen days. Samsung Heavy Industries carried an apology on major newspapers, except for Hankyoreh, concerning the leakage of oil in the Taean area. This move came under public criticism that companies tried to silence news media through advertisement. Citizens, meanwhile, carried advertisements criticizing Samsung's advertisement-based attack against the media and supporting independent news coverage. 8 2008 The Korea Press

Samsung's advertisement threat, in fact, highlighted the structural problem of most newspapers, which rely heavily on advertising revenues rather than subscription fees. The proportion of subscription fees in total revenue remains low, which pushes Korean newspapers to depend on the advertising revenues for survival. This situation leads to articles that cater to big advertisers, turning away more subscribers in a vicious cycle. The advertisement threat is reminiscent of the Sisa Journal scandal, which also involved Samsung. The underlying problem is the cozy relations between big advertisers and news media in the form of monetary contributions and support in return for removing negative reports. Concerns are mounting that the news media could not monitor big advertisers properly as long as they depend on the advertisement revenues. News media, therefore, is required to rethink its strategy to win back the trust of readers amid the worsening business environment.

Journalists enter politics : polinalist

It is hardly a surprise that journalists join the political camp during the election season. But the trend notably accelerated during the presidential election of 2007 and the general election of 2008. As the presidential race started, a number of journalists joined presidential camps. With the inauguration of the new administration, some journalists got positions at government agencies. Those who favored the journalist-turned-politicians argued that journalists are also entitled to choose their jobs freely. But critics claimed that some journalists used their position in the media as a spring-board to enter politics. The predominant public view was that journalists, though entitled to pick their jobs in new fields, should not give up their position as the critical observer of politicians just to join the political circles because of the moral obligation involved in the role of journalists. The debate about "polinalist" sparked controversy about the media- politics collusion and the objectivity of news reports. During the 2007 presidential election campaign, forty former journalists worked for the Lee Myung-bak camp. Most of the former journalists came from major newspapers and broadcasting stations, a fact that raised questions about the possibility that the camp was using the human network to minimize negative reports in the media. The former journalists applied for the party nomination for the National Assembly seats or got elected at media-related state agencies in 2008. Some journalists did not join the campaign, but entered the presidential Blue General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 9

House or other government agencies once the election was over. But there were controversies about objective reporting because they had been engaged in news reports right before they entered the Blue House or government agencies. In the eighteenth general election, thirty-six former journalists made it to the National Assembly. Of them, twelve were first-term representatives. By party affiliation, the Grand National Party had twenty-one journalist-turned- representatives, which was the biggest figure, and the Democratic Party had seventeen. There were three non-affiliated members, two pro-Park Geun-hye members, and one Democratic Labor Party member. Organized by news media, KBS topped the list with six reporters entering the National Assembly, followed by MBC (5), Dong-A Ilbo (4), JoongAng Ilbo (4), Chosun Ilbo (3), Hankook Ilbo (3), SBS (3), Hankyoreh (2), KyungHyang (1), Seoul (1), Herald Media (1), Hankyung (1), Kyungin Ilbo (1), and YTN (1). As the critical voices were raised both in and outside the media circles about the journalists jumping into politics, they began to come up with proposals to deal with the issue. Many of the suggestions are in favor of internal regulations or collective agreements that set a grace period for engaging in political activity. However, some people cast doubts over the implementation of the regulations. Back in 2003, KBS revised the internal ethics rules, blocking TV and radio news anchors and those in the political news department from engaging in political activity for at least six months after their duty is over, but the latest National Assembly election demonstrated that such rules were largely ignored. Considering the ineffective regulations, more realistic and reasonable measures should be taken in connection with journalists who find their new career in politics.

Joint operation of newspaper and broadcast networks

President Lee Myung-bak promised to repeal the ban that blocked the joint operation of newspaper and broadcast networks by a single company, which was one of his major campaign issues. After the election was over, the presidential transition committee announced on January 1, 2008, that it would propose a real of the current Law on Newspaper in favor of a new law that allows a single company to own both newspaper and broadcast networks at the same time. The presidential transition committee spokesman Lee Dong-kwan said, "The alternative law will reflect the fast-changing media environment and allow the joint operation of both newspapers and broadcast networks, while streaming newspaper-related agencies 10 2008 The Korea Press

to create more efficient support system." On the same day, the Korean Broadcasting Commission reported an amendment proposal to the presidential transition committee, under which the Article eight, which blocks a newspaper or wire service operator from owning more than thirty-three percent in cable or satellite broadcast networks, would be revised in a way that raises the stake limit. The White Paper of the presidential transition committee, released in March, 2008, clarified the new government position that the existing Newspaper Law would be repealed in order to ensure freedom and fairness in the media, allowing a newspaper company to own a controlling stake in a broadcasting firm. The White Paper said, "The measure which allows the joint ownership of newspaper and broadcasting networks will deregulate the media industry so that a global media group can be created." It also added that a wide range of supportive measures will be implemented for the newspaper industry and other policies will be introduced to ensure a diversity of public opinions. At the ceremony for Newspaper Day held on April fifth, President Lee Myung-bak said, "We should work together to help newspapers join forces with broadcasting and wire services so that they can play a better role." Lee added that he would push for a revision to the Newspaper Law and Press Arbitration Law; a declaration that was interpreted as a sign that he would allow the joint operation of newspaper and broadcast networks by a single company. In the eighteenth National Assembly election in which the Grand National Party won in a landslide victory, the key media policy issue was whether the cross ownership of newspaper and broadcasting networks should be allowed. Under the current law, newspapers are allowed to own general channels at the cable networks, but the Grand National Party claimed that the limit should be loosened significantly so that newspapers can own not only cable news channels but also terrestrial broadcasting networks. But the Democratic Party argued that such cross ownership would create a massive media group, which will monopolize the media environment, voicing its opposition. Meanwhile, the National Union of Media Workers, the Citizens' Coalition for Democratic Media, and the Journalists Association of Korea criticized the government's move, saying that the cross ownership and the repeal of the Newspaper Law will undermine the diverse voices in public opinion. The Citizens' Coalition for Democratic Media said, "The cross ownership of newspaper and broadcasting networks is a very important issue that involves the diversity of public opinions, and it is necessary to investigate the issue comprehensibly." The General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 11

National Union of Media Workers held an emergency committee meeting at the Student Education Hall in Gwangju City on May ninth and finalized a joint industry agreement that opposes the cross ownership and favors the revision of information disclosure law.

Abolition of "Globalizing Support for News Reporting"

The Roh Moo-hyun administration implemented the hugely controversial "Globalizing Support for News Reporting" measures toward the end of his tenure. The measures, however, were abolished in April 2008. The media policy was based on the assumption that the existing press room system undermined fairness in coverage and encouraged media-politics collusion. The Roh government initially eliminated the press room system and introduced what it called the "open briefing system." But the new briefing room began to function as the existing press room, and journalists complained that the new system made it very difficult to contact government officials. In response to this criticism, the Roh administration came up with the Globalizing Support for News Reporting. Under the new measure, all the briefing rooms of government agencies were integrated into three, and the electronic briefing system was introduced in order to provide as much information as possible to the public. But the Roh's new media policy sparked strong protest from the media. Reporters covering ministries and media organizations issued statements against the new policy. Munhwa Ilbo filed a suit against the government's measure at the Supreme Court, arguing that such a measure undermines the right of press freedom and the public's right to know. At the heart of the issue is the limited access of reporters to government ministries. The limited access would make it difficult to cover each ministry, which would force reporters to rely only on press releases. Especially, the media criticized clause that requires reporters to consult with the press official before contacting any government official. The tension hit a pitch in December 2007 when major press rooms were abolished, including the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency. But the tension disappeared quickly with the inauguration of the new administration. Lee Myung- bak, when he was a presidential candidate, pledged to restore press rooms. Once the new administration was launched, the Roh Moo-hyun's policy initiative was abolished. Consequently, the press room policy went down the drain at a staggering cost, which would make it difficult to discuss the future policy for press 12 2008 The Korea Press

rooms.

Korea Communications Commission launched

It was in 1998 when the Broadcasting Reform Committee was formed to explore a new entity that would encompass both broadcasting and communications. Now, the debate about the integration was over. On February 26, 2008, a bill that would pave the way for the establishment of a new government body was passed at the National Assembly. Three days later, on February 29, the new Korea Communications Commission was launched to supervise broadcasting, telecommunications and new media. On March 26, President Lee Myung-bak appointed former Gallup Korea president Choi See-joong as the inaugural chairman of the commission. The issue for an integrated body gained momentum in July 2006 when the Committee for Integrating Broadcasting and Telecommunications was set up inside the Prime Minister's Office. In April 2007, the committee proposed a bill to the National Assembly, which will lead to a new government body that supervises broadcasting, telecommunication and related functions. The proposal also said that the new body would take the form of a committee under the direction of President in order to ensure independence and fairness of the broadcasting services. At the same time, the committee suggested that the new body would be given independence in consideration of new economic engines coming from the related field. Under the proposal, President would appoint all the five standing committee members. But the bill did not pass at the National Assembly due to the intense conflict between parties involved. The timing was also bad because lawmakers were yet to welcome a new administration. Once Lee Myung-bak was elected as president, however, the bill went through the process at a rapid pace and got passed on February twenty-six. According to the final bill, one deputy chairman post will be reserved, and all the committee members will be allowed to issue proposals, while they are required to consult with Culture Minister for broadcasting policy. In addition, all the discussions at the committee will be disclosed to the public and the standing committee members are limited to three, including chairman and deputy chairman. The launch of the Korea Communications Commission signals that Korea is finally taking steps to handle the integration of broadcasting and General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 13

telecommunications in terms of government regulations, while reducing the abrasive costs due to the longstanding conflict between the now-defunct Ministry of Information and Communication, and the Korean Broadcasting Commission. The new entity is also expected to speed up policies for IPTV, which has been stuck with regulations for years. But the Korea Communications Commission was set up hurriedly ahead of the inauguration of the Lee Myung-bak administration, which resulted in hasty compromises over key issues. Some critics also expressed concerns that the formation of the commission was connected with the political dealings in connection with the overhaul of the government agencies.

Passage of IPTV Law and competition in IPTV market

After years of wrangling, the law on Internet Protocol TV (IPTV), which attracted attention as a case of broadcast-communication integration along with DMB, got finally passed. On November twenty-third, 2007, the Broadcasting Communication Special Committee at the National Assembly passed the Internet Multimedia Broadcasting Business Bill, and it went on to pass at the plenary session on December twenty-eighth. The Korea Communications Commission held a meeting on June twenty- sixth and finalized the IPTV law. Accompanying articles were made public on August 12 after consultation among the Deregulation Committee and other government agencies, including the Cabinet Meeting. Under the new bill, companies whose assets are ten trillion won or more will be barred from owning an IPTV channel. In other words, companies whose assets are between three trillion won and ten trillion won will be allowed to own general and news IPTV channels. The KCC said the decision aimed at lowering the entry barriers in order to spur the growth of integrated businesses between broadcasting and telecommunications. The KCC also decided that an accounting of IPTV business should be separated from other business units to block the transfer of dominant power to a new sector, and yet companies which take up IPTV channel business need not spin off the IPTV business units. Compulsory programs for IPTV will be decided by the KCC, considering the ratings, public interest, and fair competition rules. As for the opening of networks, operators which have existing network facilities should be required to rent out their network gears to other competitors only when the procurement of network equipment can seriously undermine fair competition. 14 2008 The Korea Press

As the bill became finalized, the licensing of IPTV providers was done in August, followed by the application, registration and certification of content providers. IPTV is now expected to kick-start within 2008.

Suring Internet newspaper

The Act on Guarantee of Freedom and Functions of Newspapers (the Law on Newspaper) was signed into law in January, 2005 and implemented on July twenty-eighth, which gave legal standing to Internet newspapers as legitimate media. Three years after the Law on Newspaper was introduced, Internet newspapers emerged as the fastest-growing media in Korea. As of the end of 2005, there were 286 Internet newspapers. At the end of 2006, there were 626 registered Internet newspapers. According to the Culture Ministry's publication registration data, the Law on Newspaper allowed a whopping 1,040 online newspapers to obtain the media company status as of April thirtieth, 2008. In other words, more than 1,000 Internet newspapers popped up in a three-year span. Given that there are many unregistered Internet newspapers, the actual number of Internet media is estimated to be much higher than 1,040. Among 1,040 registered Internet newspapers, about half (48.5 percent, or 504 companies) are based in the Seoul metropolitan area, and 14.6 percent (152 companies) are based in Gyeonggi Province. In total, 63.1 percent of Internet newspapers are based in Seoul and surrounding areas. The Korea Press Foundation conducted a survey for publishing a yearly report and discovered that among 958 registered online newspapers as of February fourteenth, 2008, the number of papers in operation stood at 764. Recently, the number of bloggers is sharply going up, and even professional bloggers with expertise in specific fields are reshaping the way people access information on the Internet. The production and distribution of user-generated content, which is known as UCC (user created content) in Korea, is also diversifying Internet media sources. In addition, personal Internet broadcasting and online communities specializing in news production and public opinions are on the rise, suggesting that online media's influence will continue to rise in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the legal disputes about Internet newspapers and personalized online media are expected to continue for a while. General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 15

Portal's responsibility and legal status in dispute

A growing number of people rely on major portals as the source of news. The influence of portals as a news provider, therefore, is on the rise. At the same time, portal sites are under fire for avoiding social responsibility even though they actively exercise influence by editing the news section and selecting top search words. In March 2007, the Ministry of Information and Communication unveiled a set of measures against pornographic materials on the web, indicating the social responsibility of portal sites. Afterwards, in May, the National Assembly held a forum in which lawmakers weighed the bill dubbed "Portal Law," opening a debate about the regulation of portal sites. There are three directions concerning the regulation of portal sites. First, the government could include portal sites in the category of online newspaper, forcing them to take responsibility as media companies. Second, portals could be subject to the Press Arbitration Law, applying the existing press regulations to portals. Third, the government might attempt to regulate all the services provided by portals, while treating portals as traditional media firms. On May eighth, 2008, the Fair Trade Commission announced a corrective measure against the fair trade law violations of Internet portal site operators. The FTC classified NHN, operator of the Naver.com, as a dominant player in the market. It struck a penalty of 227 million won on NHN, and dropped the charges against Daum Communications, Empas, KT Hitel, which runs Paran.com. The FTC said that NHN is a dominant player in the market in consideration of its revenue (48.5 percent share in the market as of 2006) and search queries (69.1 percent as of December 2006). NHN said it would file a suit against the FTC's punitive measure, arguing that the Internet portal business is a market of full competition where there is no entry barrier. There was a court ruling that placed a portal in the category of news media. On May eighteenth, the Seoul District Court said in a ruling that portal Web sites should be held responsible for libel damages. The ruling said, "Internet portal site, Naver.com, provides news in partnership with various news media companies, and its role does not stop at delivering the filed news but plays the role of a news media, handling coverage, editing and distribution of news." Government regulations are expected to step up for portals and a legal control is also likely to be introduced in the near future as both ruling and opposition party lawmakers are proposing bills that would control portal sites amid 16 2008 The Korea Press

a flurry of court rulings viewing portals as news media.

Candle light vigil and portal's role in shaping public opinion

The candle light vigil concerning the import of American beef began in Daum's online community, Agora. Netizens began to pay attention to the harmful effects of American beef, and expressed their concerns on Agora, which then spread to other communities and Internet cafes. Messages about American beef and candle light vigils were vigorously posted on Daum's Agora and other online cafes, and Daum's power as a major portal helped spread all the information far and wide, demonstrating the influence of a portal. Daum's Agora quickly emerged as the hub of online debates about candle light vigils against the import of American beef, but it also got requests to remove messages encouraging people to unsubscribe to conservative newspapers and threatening advertisers not to carry ads in those papers. Daum asked the Korea Communications Standards Commission to deliberate on the issue. Chosun Ilbo, a major conservative newspaper, sent a formal document to Daum, asking the portal to delete messages that staged a campaign against advertisers affiliated with Chosun. The government and other newspapers also sent warnings to Daum, and the portal operator had to delete controversial messages and replies. The candle light vigil incident led to a dispute about the political standing of major portal sites. Some netizens claimed that Naver.com is conservative because it delivers news chiefly from Chosun, JoongAng and Dong-A newspapers, while Daum was regarded as liberal media because Agora allowed for free discussions. But portals are basically functioning as places where news is delivered, and Naver.com's news section and Daum's Agora, where discussions are held, are fundamentally different. Daum, meanwhile, seems to push for a participatory discussion channel while Naver.com aims to become an information distribution channel. The candle light vigil sparked an intense dispute about portals' political stance, and Daum's Agora touched off a confrontation between portals and major newspapers. At Agora, there were campaigns against advertisers linked with Chosun Ilbo. In retaliation, Chosun, JoongAng and Dong-A decided to stop providing their news to Daum. Afterwards, other newspapers such as Maeil Business Newspaper halted providing their news to Daum. The Korea Communications Standards Commission ruled that it is illegal to put pressure on General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 17

newspaper advertisers on the Internet. Amid concerns that the ruling would undermine the free of expression on the Internet, even prosecutors began to investigate the case. As a result, local online users began to move to foreign web sites such as YouTube Korea, Google, and Yahoo! Korea because these foreign sites are relatively free from government regulations. The massive move to foreign sites, however, raised concerns that local Internet portals might lose their control on the market to foreign competitors. There was also a view that the current situation puts local portals at a disadvantage compared with foreign operators.

Online media and news copyright

News is increasingly distributed through the Internet. But the side effect is that more illegal copying of news or links creates social problems. The widespread misguided perception is that news content is free on the Web. Not only individuals, but also corporations and organizations, often violate news copyrights. The Korea Online Newspaper Association sent a formal document to portals, calling for site operators to delete news that are sent seven days ago or earlier. In September 2007, 240 news content providers led by the Korea Online Newspaper Association, the Korea Internet Newspaper Association, and the Korea Internet Contents United formed the News Content Copyright Holder Association in order to protect their intellectual rights against portal sites. As the conflict between portal sites and news media intensified, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (whose name has since changed into the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) consulted with related organizations including the Korea Online Newspaper Association, the Korea Internet Newspaper Association, the Korea Internet Contents United as well as portal operators before setting up a news usage guideline in September 2007. The final version came out in November 2007. The agreement governs the way news intellectual property should be protected in relation to news copyright expiration, limit on modification, direct links and prevention of abusing. It also includes clauses aimed at ensuring editorial fairness by specifying technical issues such as the disclosure of editorial design and preferences at portal news sites, channels to seek damages for malicious reporting, prevention of illegal copying, standardization of classification and delivery. Newspaper companies also set out to ensure their intellectual property protection for their news content. The Korea Press Foundation took over the online 18 2008 The Korea Press

news copyright management from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and launched News Korea (www.newskorea.or.kr), an all-in-one news content distribution site. As of the end of June, 2008, New Korea has been joined by fifty- six media companies including national dailies, regional newspapers, weeklies, media newspapers and online newspapers. Ten news media led by Chosun Ilbo, set up News Bank (bbs.newsbank.co.kr), a news content copyright management site aimed at increasing members' ad revenues. The site is designed to handle news advertisement implementation, which is currently operated by portals, in order to boost ad revenue and enhance ad effects for advertisers. In addition, News Bank has adopted an open-type copyright platform in a bid to resolve the illegal circulation of news on the Internet. News Bank has signed up twenty-nine media firms as of the end of June 2008.

One-person media and civic journalism

The year 2008 will be remembered as the watershed moment for one-person media. With the candle light vigil held against the import of American beef, Internet broadcasting and blogs provided a key venue for sharing opinions and latest developments in real time. One-person media, or otherwise known as "street journalism," took off thanks largely to the public's disillusionment of the existing mainstream media. The surging popularity of one-person media prompted mainstream media to introduce live blogs. Further, reporters rushed to establish their online brands. Some reporters attracted bigger audiences through their personal blogs. Internet personal broadcasts played a central role as the venue for civic journalism. Africa TV, a personal broadcast site, covered the candle light vigils twenty-four hours a day, and more than eight million visitors hit the sites to watch the candle light vigils, setting a new record. This type of personal media differed dramatically from existing media channels by offering user created content (UCC), real-time replies, text messaging. Viewers left their views while watching the related videos on the Web. As the live coverage by one-person media gained momentum and began to exercise real influence, existing media companies followed suit. Hankyoreh, KyungHyang, NoCut News tried to cover the events in real time. Outdoor studios were set up in a bid to offer a different angle to the developments with urgency and vividness. Discussions and interviews of citizens General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 19

at the demonstration sites were introduced on the spot. Some newspapers attempted to differentiate themselves by assigning well-known figures to host the live coverage. The broadcast of the candle-light vigils by existing media firms were transported to popular Internet video sites such as Africa and Pandora TV.

Newspaper and broadcasting industry in 2007

The total revenue of newspaper and broadcast networks in 2007 reached 22.7 trillion won. This breaks down to 3.3 trillion won in newspaper revenue and 19.4 trillion won in broadcast revenue. The figure for newspapers excludes those from IT newspapers and other specialized magazines. When these and other specialized magazines are combined, the total revenue for newspapers is estimated to be around four trillion won. Meanwhile, newspapers accounted for 14.6 percent of the total media revenue, while broadcast networks' portion was 85.4 percent.

Newspaper and Broadcast Revenue in 2007 (Unit: 1 million won) No. of Average Revenue Percentage in total industry firms revenue Newspaper 442 3,318,621 14.6 7,508 Broadcast 342 19,385,973 85.4 56,684 Newspaper & Broadcast 784 22,704,594 100.0 28,960

The total revenue figures are based on the data of thirty-nine newspapers (eleven national dailies, fourteen local dailies, six economic dailies, two IT newspapers, three sports dailies, three free dailies) submitted to the Financial Supervisory Service. The figures for other companies are based on the "2008 Korea Media Yearbook." In total, sixty-nine newspapers were considered for the calculation, including twenty-four dailies whose revenues were unavailable for this report. As for the newspapers whose revenues were not revealed, the coefficient between their employee figures and their revenues was identified (Pearson coefficient= .807, P<.01), and then three groups were formed based on the number of employees (1-50, 51-100, 101 or higher). Among the groups in question, the companies that submitted their financial data to the Financial Supervisory Service were excluded. The highest and lowest figures were then removed before computing for average revenue. This is intended to minimize the errors in estimates involved in the inclusion of newspaper companies whose assets are 20 2008 The Korea Press

more than seven billion won and required to submit their financial data to the Financial Supervisory Service. Among newspapers covered by the Korea Media Yearbook, those which were established after January 2007 and did not announce their annual revenues yet were excluded from the estimate. A total of 295 regional weeklies were included in the estimate figures. Of them, eighty-eight companies were covered by the Korea Media Yearbook while estimated revenues were complied for 207 magazines. When it comes to the data for the 207 magazines whose revenues were unavailable for this report, the method employed for newspapers was adopted, with the extreme end of the revenue spectrum removed before computing to produce an average. The revenue for broadcasting companies was based on the 2007 Broadcasting Company Financial Statement Release, which was put out in June, 2008. The revenues of thirty-nine newspaper companies listed on the Financial Supervisory Service were about 2.78 trillion won, accounting for an 83.7 percent in the total revenue of all newspapers. Unregistered newspapers generated a combined revenue of 540 billion won, which was 16.3 percent of the total. By category, national dailies carved out the biggest share of 55.4 percent. The top three players — Chosun Ilbo, Dong-A Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo — accounted for 30.9 percent. In the total revenues of broadcast networks, the three major networks accounted for fourteen percent. In particular, the average revenue of the three heavyweights was near 900 billion won.

Newspaper industry

According to the revenue figures compiled by the Financial Supervisory Service, the revenue of newspapers increased 3.4 percent in 2007, up from a year earlier. This figure is lower than a growth of 11.6 percent in 2006, but the statistics show that newspapers' revenue continued to rise at a steady pace. The yearly growth was minus 10.9 percent in 2003 and minus 8.0 percent in 2004, fueling worries about the shaky profitability of newspapers. The upward trend in revenue in the past two years, meanwhile, is due to the rise in revenues of national dailies and economic dailies. National daily newspapers, which play a central role in the entire newspaper General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 21

market, witnessed a revenue growth for three years in a row, which was in line with the broader market trend. But the figure stopped short of surpassing 1.9 trillion won set in 2002 (the revenue in 2007 was about 1.8 trillion won). Regional dailies maintained 260-270 billion won in revenue until 2006, but saw the figure slide to 250 billion won in 2007. Economic dailies pulled off a rise in revenue from 2004 and the figure for 2007 was 450 billion won. The major factor that boosted the revenues in newspaper companies was the diversification strategy and the growth of advertising income.

The rise in revenue of economic dailies was helped by the public interest in investment and an increase of advertisements for insurance and real estate. The differentiated content, in other words, boosted the revenues higher than other subcategory of newspapers. The revenue of economic dailies accounted for 13.1 percent in total newspapers listed on the Financial Supervisory Service in 2002 but climbed to 16.2 percent in 2007, the second biggest after national dailies. Along with the rise of economic dailies, also notable was the growth of free newspapers. Meanwhile, sports dailies staged a turnaround in revenue in 2007 after suffering a steady decrease since 2002. IT newspapers maintained a similar level in 2007 after witnessing a slight decrease in 2002.

Broadcasting industry

The revenue of the Korean broadcasting industry is estimated to reach 19.4 trillion won in 2007 (Korea Communications Commission, 2007 Broadcast Financial Statement Release, 2008, June). This is compiled from the financial statements and related data submitted by 342 broadcasting companies in accordance with the Broadcasting Law, Section 98, Article two (forty-four terrestrial networks, 103 cable operators, 185 PPs, one multi satellite operator, eight terrestrial mobile multimedia operators, one satellite operator). The survey results show that 185 PPs accounted for 66.1 percent, the highest figure among the broadcasters, followed by forty-four terrestrial networks (20.2 percent), 103 cable operators (11.0 percent). The reason for the bigger share of PPs is that additional non-broadcast revenues, such as home shopping and telecom operator's business income, were added to their figures. The market conditions for the broadcasting industry faced a fast and turbulent change, thanks largely to the advent of various broadcasting platforms. For advertisers, there are now more tools for marketing their products through different media. But the changes are pushing broadcasting firms to wean off from the longstanding source of income: advertisement. The total advertising market expanded 4.7 percent in 2007, compared with a year earlier. The newspaper's advertising segment rose 4.6 percent, radios managed to hold the growth rate at 0.3 percent, magazines saw a 5.4 percent increase, and Internet sprinted ahead with a whopping 30.9 percent growth rate. However, advertisements for broadcasters slipped by 3.5 percent. In 2002, the broadcasting industry pulled off a respectable 24.9 percent growth rate. But since then, its growth rate has been in a negative General Trends in the Korean Media in 2007. 7 ~ 2008. 6 23

territory, except for 2006. Meanwhile, the details of advertisements allocated for different media showed that traditional media firms such as TV, newspaper, radio are suffering a steady decrease, while cable TV and online companies are staging a continued growth.

Against this backdrop, the three terrestrial networks (KBS, MBC, SBS) posted a revenue of about 2.7 trillion won in 2007, little changed from 2006. Regional MBC stations have posted 430-440 billion won since 2002. The revenue growth of the three terrestrial networks was negative in 2003 and 2004, before switching to positive in 2005 and 2006. But the rate was in negative territory in 2007. Regional broadcasters also witnessed a negative growth of 0.6 percent in 2007, after witnessing a whopping 58.5 percent increase in 2006.
