Zone Vision’s ‘Club Channel’ launches in Korea

Club Channel, owned and operated by Zone Vision Networks Ltd, has today launched in Korea.
The Club Channel will air 24-hours a day, seven days a week, initially to one million cable subscribers. Series such as the popular ‘Globe Trekker’, ‘Saturday Kitchen’, ‘Fashion File’ and the ‘Uncovered’ series, will be among the titles included in the 60% of acquired content for the channel.
The remaining 40% of content for the channel will be produced locally. One of the MSO’s which Club Channel will launch on is CJ, one of Korea’s leading producers and distributors of entertainment products and services in Korea.
Alan Hodges, General Manager Asia Pacific, Zone Vision, said: “Asia continues to be a key growth area for Zone Vision, and we are delighted that our next channel launch will be in Korea. Club Channel has such an eclectic mix of programming, we are sure that its shows will appeal to the broad spectrum of viewers in Korea.”
Ki-Myung Kim, Managing Director of Programming & Strategy at Club Channel in Korea, added: “Club Channel Korea has unlimited potential to fascinate young generations who love clubbing, party, and leading new cultural trends. This channel will build up club maniacs and grow with them to be the best lifestyle channel specialising in clubbing. Based on this unlimited potential of channel style, we are expecting the number of subscribers to increase considerably over the next 12 months.
