ABSTRACT

This study explores risks in digital TV transition and analog switch off process in Korea. The serious risks with the transition identified by the study include digital coverage problems, interrupted access of millions over-the-air households and difficulties in upgrading communal TV system that enable TV signal to be received by an antenna, and then relayed to the flats in a building via an electronic distribution system. Second, the risks in DTV transition trial is related with a tight budget to support vulnerable people, to improve viewer awareness and to prepare for rapid response to problems. We use policy Delphi which seeks to generate differing opinions and divergent response on the risks in DTV transition from an expert panel. In the results, we suggest that there must be plans in place to respond rapidly to those most vulnerable populations who end up losing service, so that they get the education and assistance they need. In addition to an aggressive ongoing monitoring and the efforts of risk management for the transition stages, the administration must allocate additional funds to ensure that all viewers can make the transition to digital TV service.
