The event is hosted by the Korea Cable Television and Telecommunications Association (KCTA) and the Daejeon Metropolitan City Government. Approximately 30,000 visitors and 80 companies including domestic and overseas cable TV industry personnel will visit the show.
The main purpose of the show is basically to increase cable TV viewers’ satisfaction with the service and strengthen the competitiveness of the HD content development sector through digital cable TV public relations.
In the show, companies such as the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Samsung Electronics, Aris Technologies, Alticast, and Humax Digital will show various kinds of merged solutions such as 3DTV, 1 GB digital cable transmission systems and widget set-top boxes, which show Internet content through the TV.
