On the morning of the 12th, Candidate Yoon presented the normalization of public broadcasting through the '59-second Shorts'.
He plans to mandate KBS to produce historical dramas, which have not been produced for five years due to product placement (PPL) restrictions. He also intends to propose that the main news program allocate more than 30% of its airtime to international news.
