Trial 3D TV Service to Begin This Year
by Kim Tong-hyungThe Korea Communications Commission (KCC), the country`s converged regulator for broadcasting and telecommunications, is kicking off the three dimensional (3D) television drive, with the goal of having television stations beam terrestrial 3D broadcasts sometime next year.
