KT Skylife, First Half 'Love Antenna' National Story Contest

[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] KT Skylife announced that it will hold a public contest for the "Love Antenna" stories from the public for the first half of this year for one month starting from the 24th.

Love Antenna is Skylife's representative social contribution activity. In order to expand universal viewing rights that all Korean citizens should enjoy, it provides UHD TVs, Skylife's UHD receivers, and lifetime free viewing rights for broadcasting services to areas with poor reception, such as hard-to-receive regions, or to facilities and homes of disabled and vulnerable groups who need to acquire culture and information through broadcasting.

Since 2016, Skylife has been supporting ultra-high-definition broadcasting facilities at a total of 308 locations nationwide through biannual public story contests to find places in need of Love Antenna benefits, such as media marginalized groups due to regional limitations and welfare facilities where broadcasting viewing is difficult.

This story contest is being conducted together with the Korea Association of Welfare Facilities for the Disabled, KT Group Hope Sharing Foundation, and the Korea Health Family Promotion Institute. Any Korean citizen can apply by writing the place and story where Love Antenna is needed through the Skylife website and submitting it via email. The company will review the submitted stories, select recipients for the first half Love Antenna donation, and announce the results on the website on the 30th of next month.

Hong Gisub, Head of External Cooperation at Skylife, stated, "Due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, we plan to expand the installation of Love Antennas more than last year to provide direct help to marginalized neighbors in broadcasting welfare such as vulnerable groups and welfare facilities. Through the newly established Social Contribution Committee, we will expand social contribution projects that are more professional and can provide practical help to marginalized groups in the blind spots of social support."
