The KCA is part of the South Korean Department of Science and Information Technology.<\/p>\n<p>Representatives from JTV and the KCA are in Connemara on the 13<sup>th<\/sup> &amp; 14<sup>th<\/sup> June.

It is vitally important to TG4 that the independent production sector is growing and strengthening, particularly from a regional perspective.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018TG4 has a particular focus on companies that work through the medium of Irish. Many of these are based in the regions and particularly in Gaeltacht areas.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Funding to TG4 also keeps hundreds of people employed in the independent production sector and this Memorandum of Understanding will help to secure and build on that employment.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Another integral part of TG4\u2019s mission is the internationalisation of the independent companies and this Memorandum of Understanding is another very positive step in that regard.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This Memorandum of Understanding will also provide opportunities for individuals and help to develop their skillsets, as well as facilitating access to international markets for material produced here in Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018TG4 are very pleased also, that \u00dadar\u00e1s na Gaeltachta are supporting this initiative, offering advice and practical support to Gaeltacht companies who want to take part in the process\u2019.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Korean Communications Agency provides funding to support international co-productions: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kca.kr\/open_content\/en\/index.jsp\">http:\/\/www.kca.kr\/open_content\/en\/index.jsp<\/a><\/li>\n<li>The KCA is part of the Department of Science and ICT of South Korea: <a href=\"http:\/\/english.msit.go.kr\/english\/main\/main.do\">http:\/\/english.msit.go.kr\/english\/main\/main.do<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This agreement proposes to facilitate the exchange of best content and programmes; foster co-production of creative content; fund co-production projects; support marketing efforts and promote human resource development in both countries Jeonju Television is a public service broadcaster which accesses funding from the Korean Communications Agency (KCA) for international co-production of this kind.
