Korea Educational Broadcasting System (Korean: Script error: No such module "Lang".; RR: Script error: No such module "lang".) or EBS is a South Korean educational public radio and television network covering South Korean territory. It is the only major South Korean radio and television network joint venture Ministry of Science and ICT and Ministry of Education without a separate regional service. It was established as KBS 3 and KBS Educational Radio in the 1980s, and became an independent corporation in 1990.

Funding

Though nominally a public broadcasting entity, EBS gets most of its yearly budget from advertisements and sales revenue. In 2012, 72.1% of its revenue came from textbook sales, publications and ad revenues on its TV Radio and internet platforms, while the rest came from TV license fees (EBS gets 3% of the total License Fee being collected by the Korea Educational Broadcasting System) and government grants.[1]
