Abstract
Retransmission battles between broadcast television and multichannel video programming providers(MVPD) including cable television systems and direct-broadcast satellite are taking place frequently. Korean Broadcasting Law clarifies that retransmission of channels not subject to compulsory retransmission(or non-‘must carry’ channels) requires agreement between broadcasters and MPVDs. This article reviews retransmission rules and provisions under Korean Broadcasting Law, how to regulate retransmission battles when the disputes do harm competition of the market, whether retransmission rules are in line with market principle by looking into retransmission battle cases.
