Korea Media and Communications Commission, also known as KMCC or KCC, is a State Owned entity headquartered in South Korea. Founded in 2008, the organization functions as a South Korean media regulation agency, modeled after the Federal Communications Commission of the United States of America. It was established on February 29, 2008, combining the former Korean Broadcasting Commission and the Ministry of Information and Communication, with decisions made by the five members of the Commission. The organization was renamed Korea Media and Communications Commission in October 2025 under the Lee Jae-myung government, adding the media component to its mandate.
The Korea Communications Commission (KCC) recently outlined plans to invest KRW 72.7 billion in broadcast media research and development through 2030, with a focus on AI-driven technologies. This initiative, part of the "Digital Media Innovation Technology Development Project," includes eight new projects selected for 2026, receiving KRW 7.9 billion in funding, and aims to boost the global competitiveness of South Korea's broadcasting and media industry. Previously, on April 28, 2026, the KCC, in collaboration with the Korea Association for ICT Promotion (KAIT), published the '2025 Online Damage Counseling Casebook.' This publication details common online damage cases reported to the Online Damage 365 Center in 2025, highlighting incidents such as personal information theft through used goods trading applications during job search processes. Earlier, on April 24, 2026, the KCC and the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) announced changes to registration requirements for bulk message transmission businesses, introducing a Transmission Qualification Certification System to prevent illegal spam.
