Come and meet the amazing digital world of HCN.
The cable TV has overcome many difficulties such as the strict restriction on access and business from the start of the business, conflict with the cable community antenna television and issue on the transmission network to obtain 15,260,000 household memberships as of Mar. 2009.
As the cable TV has various channels such as news, movies, sports, education, home shopping and music, people can watch terrestrial broadcasting and satellite broadcasting through the cable TV. As the regional information media which provides the audiences with regional news and life information, it is the broadcasting media going along with local residents.
The environment surrounding the broadcasting industry these days changes day by day. Compared to the period when the cable TV was first introduced, now is the time when the changes in the broadcasting environment are accelerated.
The rapid technological development in the broadcasting and telecommunication fields or the technological development such as the digitalization results in the appearance of the means of new broadcasting and the communication medias such as satellite broadcasting or Internet broadcasting.
In the center of the changes in the broadcasting environment is the cable TV.
The cable TV can be said to be the core media which accepts the demand for change and innovation as it is not only the foundation of the 21st century broadcasting and video industry but also the basic media for the high speed information highway.
If the SO and the cable community antenna television are integrated due to the revision of the Broadcasting Act or if the certain relation is established or the program’s flexible window is expanded through the satellite broadcasting, the economical foundation for the cable TV industry would expand a lot along with the expansion of audience.
On the other hand, if the digitalization of the terrestrial broadcasting and the satellite broadcasting are conducted in full swing, there would be no clear difference in the broadcasting environment between the media and the competition between the media would get more severe.
By actively dealing with the change in the environment, the cable TV will lead the information community not only as the multi-channels professional broadcasting but also the core media providing advanced IT services such as Internet, home shopping, remote education and remote diagnosis.
