History
editSBS TV is South Korea's second commercial television station after MBC TV, and was established on 9 December 1991. SBS commenced its official broadcasts in Seoul at 10:00am on the same day, which would be designated as "The Day of Birth of SBS",[1] as it broadcast by MBC on the program MBC Newsdesk.[2] On the same day, SBS Eight O'Clock News was launched as the network's newscast.
Initially, SBS were only broadcasting terrestrially in Seoul and its surrounding areas. On 9 October 1992, the government began accepting applications for private broadcasting stations in other regions of the country. SBS had planned for a television and radio broadcast affiliate network to air SBS' programs on other new regional channels before its 5th anniversary. In 1994, the private channels KNN in Busan, TJB in Daejeon, TBC in Daegu, and kbc in Gwangju were created after government approval.[3] On 14 May 1995, SBS launched a national television network with these channels as its local affiliates, airing SBS programs as well as creating local programming.[4]
