Its footprint covers ten Asian territories, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan, Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar and Australia, with carriage on 40 platforms, reaching 7.8 million households.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to rebrand channel M as tvN to cope with our expansion plan in Southeast Asia. We see many growth opportunities for Korean entertainment businesses in the region,\u201d said Samey Lee, CEO of CJ E&amp;M HK. \u201cWe noticed the change of viewers demographics. K-wave has been widely spread from teenagers to other target groups such as university students, young executives and families. A growing demand of diverse K-contents is seen from Southeast Asia, and tvN is providing the answer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Expanding its regional portfolio, the Korean media conglomerate is also set to launch tvN Movies, tapping into the appeal of South Korean feature films.
