The relationship between streaming platforms and broadcast networks is changing. Once considered competitors actively trying to poach each other's viewers, they are now sharing content and forging partnerships. Streaming originals have increasingly premiered on broadcast television, while broadcast content is distributed on streaming platforms, reaching new audiences even after release. The trend, continuing with MBC's "Anna" to "Bonjour Bakery" on KBS, is a prime example of the changing content distribution structure. Streaming platforms no longer confine their content to their own ecosystems, instead expanding into traditional broadcast networks. Broadcasters likewise view streaming services as partners capable of expanding their content offerings. Previously, as domestic and foreign streaming platforms grew rapidly, audiences shifted from television to consuming content on demand through mobile devices, PCs and tablets. Broadcast networks experienced the double blow of falling ratings and a slumping advertising market. Conversely, streaming platforms viewed the powerful content and p

Alfonso Cuarón, the visionary Mexican filmmaker behind contemporary masterpieces like "Gravity" and "Roma," is set to make his first-ever visit to Korea for the 31st Busan International Film Festival (BIFF). The two-time Academy Award winner for Best Director will headline a star-studded lineup at Asia's premier film gathering, taking place across Busan from Oct. 6 to 15. Known for rewriting the rules of modern filmmaking with his sweeping long takes and immersive storytelling, Cuarón will walk the opening ceremony red carpet, host a highly anticipated masterclass and lead a special Q&A session following an IMAX screening of his 2013 space thriller, "Gravity." Cuarón’s career spans landmark achievements across global cinema. He first captured international acclaim with his raw coming-of-age drama "Y Tu Mamá También" (2001), which won Best Screenplay at the Venice Film Festival. He later reinvented a blockbuster franchise with "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" (2004) before staging the visceral dystopian chaos of "Children of Men" (2006). In 2018, his deeply personal blac

Rosé of K-pop supergroup BLACKPINK released her new single "New Trick" on Friday, her agency said. The energetic garage-punk track carries a message on overcoming hardship and moving forward with one's own "new trick," according to The Black Label. Amy Allen, who worked on Rose's megahit "APT.," and Andrew Wells, who collaborated with the singer on her song "Stay a Little Longer," co-produced the new track. The music video for "New Trick" was filmed in collaboration with Apple on the occasion of the release of the iPhone 18. It was directed by Dave Meyers who has worked with pop stars Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar and Ariana Grande.

The Korean television and content industry are aggressively integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into its domain, ranging from technical background processing to front-of-camera narrative devices. The shift is most visible in non-scripted entertainment, where human relationships once formed the absolute core of viewer engagement. SBS’ reality show "My AI Partner — Strange Romance" recently placed humans and digital avatars side by side in double dates. During a recent episode, webtoon artist Kian84 introduced his AI partner Na-hee to his close acquaintance, Ji Ye-eun, casually referring to the digital persona as "honey." Despite the synthetic nature of the interaction, Ji reacted with skepticism, insisting that it seems hard to date an AI and adding that her own feelings were "real" love. Kian84, however, defended the psychological comfort provided by his digital companion, saying that "there is a sense of security that a human simply cannot give." Yet, as the boundaries blurred, he confessed to a complex inner conflict: "Rather than Na-hee becoming human, I feel like I am becom

A romance scam exploiting the name and likeness of actor Lee Dong-wook has defrauded a fan of tens of millions of won, stirring widespread public dismay and prompting his management agency to intervene to prevent further victimization. Appearing on SBS's "News Hunters" in a broadcast on Wednesday, a woman in her late 30s said she exchanged private messages for about eight months with an individual claiming to be Lee, believing they were in a relationship before wiring 35 million won ($23,700) that she has been unable to recover. The victim said the online relationship unfolded entirely across social media, where the impostor groomed her into believing they were romantically involved. "He more or less professed his love for me. We even talked about visiting my parents and arranging a meeting of the families," she said. "It grew into a romantic relationship. I called him 'oppa' (an affectionate Korean term for an older male) and he called me 'honey.' He told me he had chosen me as his spouse." Yet throughout their eight months of relationship, the two never once met face-to-face or spoke by

K-pop singer Chungha was taken to an emergency room early Friday and has canceled a scheduled performance at a university festival. The student council of Kyonggi University's College of Tourism and Culture announced Chungha's absence from the festival on its official social media account Friday. The singer had been scheduled to perform at the university that day. "Early this morning, Chungha was taken to the emergency room due to a health issue and is still receiving treatment there," the student council said. "As a result, it appears that her scheduled performance today will unfortunately not be able to proceed." The council said organizers were working with an agency to find a replacement artist. "We sincerely apologize to the students who had been looking forward to the performance for having to deliver this sudden news," it said. Chungha debuted in 2016 as a member of girl group I.O.I after competing on Mnet's hit audition program, "Produce 101." After the group's activities ended, she launched a solo career. She recently left MORE VISION, the entertainment company founded by rapper a

Producers of the SBS investigative program "Unanswered Questions" have asked the public for information on the whereabouts of rapper and producer Perry (Perry Thomas Borja), an early musical pioneer for YG Entertainment who has been missing for 16 years. The production team posted an appeal on its official social media account Thursday, saying, "We are seeking information from anyone who knows the current whereabouts of Perry, who was active in Korea's music scene from the mid-1990s and is reported missing after he was last seen in Los Angeles in 2010, or from anyone in contact with his family." Perry, who hails from Oakland, California, is a rapper and producer who entered the Korean hip-hop scene in the 1990s. He helped shape YG Entertainment's defining hip-hop sound, working on songs for acts including Jinusean, 1TYM, Lexy and SE7EN. He released a solo rap album in 2001 and disappeared from the music scene after working on BIGBANG's 2010 Japanese single "Beautiful Hangover." Perry was reportedly last seen in Los Angeles that year and his whereabouts have remained unknown since. In 202

Former 1TYM member Song Baek-kyung's cryptic comments about producer Perry are drawing renewed attention after a SBS investigative program asked the public for information about the longtime YG Entertainment producer, whose whereabouts have remained unknown for years. Song posted a lengthy message on his social media account in January, reflecting on his relationship with the producer and the abrupt changes he noticed more than two decades ago. "Maybe because I've been getting more submissions lately, a lot of people have been asking me various questions," Song said. "The question that stands out the most — and one that I'm also extremely curious about — is how Perry is doing." Song also hinted that he had an idea why Perry eventually left YG Entertainment, but stopped short of revealing details. "I can roughly guess and read between the lines as to why he left YG, but I can't say it directly myself," he said, adding another layer of mystery to Perry's disappearance from public view. Song recalled that around 2000 to 2002, Perry smoked cigarettes and regularly joined him for nights ou

Fresh off critical acclaim in Toronto, director Yeon Sang-ho’s latest film "Paradise Lost" — a project rooted in a story passed down by his mother — is making its way to home. The psychological thriller centers on So-young (Kim Hyun-joo), a grieving mother whose world is upended when her son, Sun-woo (Bae Hyeon-seong), whom she presumed dead after a camping bus went missing nine years ago, miraculously reappears. The film made its world premiere on Sept. 13 at the 51st Toronto International Film Festival. Following last year's "The Ugly," this marks Yeon's second consecutive year being officially invited to the festival's Special Presentations section — further expanding the ever-growing "Yeon-iverse." Based on the novel "Black Inferno," the plot follows So-young as she relies on an artificial intelligence program called "Children of Paradise" to interact with a digital avatar of her young son just to get through each day. Then comes the shock: Sun-woo returns home alive. While the public erupts over his miracle survival, So-young is gripped by a growing dread. Covered in scars,

Singer-actor IU has donated 200 million won ($144,436) to mark her debut anniversary Friday, her agency said. IU, whose real name is Lee Ji-eun, donated 50 million won each to four organizations, using the name IUaena, a combination of her stage name and the name of her fan community, Uaena, according to Edam Entertainment. The donations, made to charities that include Korea Welfare Services and Habitat for Humanity Korea, will be used to help young patients from low-income families, war veterans and people of merit, it added. Lee has regularly made donations in the name of her fan community on special occasions, including her debut anniversary, birthday and the year-end holiday season. In May, she donated 300 million won on her birthday to organizations supporting patients facing financial difficulties, single-mother households and elderly people living alone.
