The international news and current affairs television channel France 24 is now broadcasting in English in Korea through CJ’s portal TVing.
Launched on Dec. 6, the 24-hour channel’s mission is to cover international current events from a French perspective and to convey French values.
Funded by the French government and based near Paris, the channel offers variants in English and Arabic in addition to French to overseas markets.
