About SBS TV Advertising, South Korea.

A little background on the channel and why advertisers keep coming back.

SBS is a South Korean terrestrial broadcaster. Its October 2026 schedule runs the Friday-Saturday drama slot, which launches Doctor X (닥터X) on Friday 9 October, alongside Running Man, My Little Old Boy, Inkigayo, Unanswered Questions, TV Animal Farm and the SBS 8 News.

Airtime is sold programme by programme. Every programme on sale carries a published price for a 15-second spot placed directly before or after it, and most also sell a spot inside the programme's mid-break at twice that price. The prices fall into five bands, shown as the options on this page, from daytime and overnight programmes up to the Friday-Saturday drama and My Little Old Boy.

Spots of 30 seconds or longer take a 20% length discount on before-or-after positions; mid-programme spots are excluded from that discount.

Live on air

Your spot airs in the channel's real broadcast, alongside the same programming millions tune in for every day.

05 · Why this channel

Why advertise on SBS TV Advertising, South Korea.

Programme-level buying: pick the band that holds the programmes you want; each band's line-up is shown under Compare packages.

03

Mid-programme breaks: most programmes also sell a spot inside the programme, at twice the before-or-after price.

Every commercial passes Korea's broadcast advertising pre-clearance before it airs, so the creative needs Korean dubbing or Korean subtitles.
