Hong Kong learns on Mobile TV from Korea






Last March, RTHK (Radio Television Hong Kong) asked me for an interview on Mobile TV in Korea. RTHK producer Annie, who was in charge of ‘Media Watch’, visited South Korea to film the competitiveness of Korean Mobile TV which was commercialized in for the first in the Globe. (You can get more information on Korean Mobile TV market and its development from www.tdmb.org)


My interview was focused on providing them the newest trends and insights from Korean Mobile TV experiences. Once the Hong Kong TV people finished filming on Korean mobile TV industry for a whole one week, they told me that they really impressed about the advancement of Korean Mobile TV industry.


As RTHK were not able to have the prior knowledge on Korean mobile industry, My company, Veyond Partners also provided relevant support on arranging the adequate players of Mobile TV which are Samsung, TU Media, KBS, U1 Media, iStation, Ministry of Communication, Korean Broadcasting Commission.

I heard from Annie (who became a very close friend during her stay in Korea) that the Hong Kong audiences were really interested on Korea's Mobile TV and also some Hong Kong companies expressed interests on Korea’s mobile TV experiences once the program were televised in 10th March in Hong Kong.

This is the sample clip that I appeared and I will try to upload some more later.
