At a meeting chaired by Kim Jong-cheol, chair of the Broadcast, Media and Communications Commission, the proposed fee reportedly fell from 35 billion KRW (26.25 million USD) to 30.4 billion KRW (22.8 million USD) and then to 25 billion KRW (18.75 million USD) before JTBC lowered its offer to 14 billion KRW (10.5 million USD). <\/p>\n<p> Amid debate over universal viewing rights\u2014arguments that a national event should be available to the entire public\u2014public broadcaster KBS moved first to find common ground with JTBC. On the 15th, MBC submitted a counteroffer of 12 billion KRW (9 million USD) for the broadcast rights and put forward additional conditions; if JTBC accepts those terms, MBC is expected to join as a co-broadcaster. SBS is discussing JTBC\u2019s proposal internally, but its participation remains uncertain. <\/p>\n<p> JTBC said the agreement with public broadcaster KBS has eased concerns about limiting the public\u2019s access and that it will continue negotiations with MBC and SBS. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2026 North America World Cup will be broadcast not only by JTBC
