The Ministry says the money will be provided over five years and is aimed at boosting the infrastructure needed for Net broadcasting, localizing the production of Webcasting software and hardware, and to support local content development.
The Korean Government aims to make Webcasting into a "leading next-generation IT industry" exporting content to the value of $1 billion by 2005.
