Controversy over low-quality broadcasting service' Teabing should be polite about baseball first
Tving, which holds the exclusive Internet and mobile broadcasting rights for professional baseball, is controversial for using expressions that disparage baseball as well as its broadcasting service.
On the 4th, KBO officially announced, 'We have signed a contract with CJ ENM for wired and wireless broadcasting rights for the 2024-2026 KBO League, and will conduct wired and wireless broadcasting through TVING, Korea's leading OTT service, for three years from 2024.'
This wired and wireless broadcasting rights contract is worth a total of KRW 135 billion over 3 years (annual average of KRW 45 billion), which is the largest wired and wireless broadcasting rights contract in the history of domestic professional sports. It is a very large contract whose average annual amount has more than doubled.
KBO signed a TV broadcasting rights contract worth a total of KRW 162 billion (annual average of KRW 54 billion) over three years with the three terrestrial broadcasters, and took a big step in industrializing the KBO league by signing the largest wired and wireless broadcasting rights contract in history. ' he welcomed.
Fans who had been enjoying baseball for free through large portal sites were greatly disappointed by the lower quality service than TVing's paid broadcasting. Tving is marketing that for the price of a cup of coffee, you can enjoy baseball broadcasts as well as various OTT services for a month, but the dissatisfaction of fans is so strong that some say it is a waste of money to even pay for a cup of coffee from a vending machine.
In the highlight subtitles, the subtitle 'SAVE' was added in a 'SAFE' situation, or the player was introduced as 'batter number 24', and the player's uniform number and batting order were not distinguished. There were also absurd mistakes such as not knowing baseball terminology properly, such as sacrificial fly after sacrifice play, hitting third base, and home run.
The list of replay videos provided by the TVING site is marked by episodes 1 and 2, like dramas. If you go into detailed information, you can see the date and team information, but it is difficult to see at a glance and search is inconvenient. On the 9th, when the opening game of the exhibition game was held, it took 4 to 5 hours for the highlight video to be uploaded. The service was so slow that the full game replay video was not uploaded until the next day.
Until last year, baseball fans could view highlights provided by portal sites immediately after the game. The replay video was also uploaded within an hour. All videos were free.
