These buildings mark the headquarters of South Korea's government-run broadcaster, Korea Broadcasting System, usually abbreviated and referred to as KBS.

As a public broadcaster, KBS has the right to collect license fees on every television set in the nation, an arrangement also used by the BBC and many other national public broadcasters. KBS also runs international broadcasting service KBS World, which can be received via a number of channels (World Radio Network for the radio service, for example - and in North America, SiriusXM carries World Radio Network); again, KBS World is similar to other countries' national broadcasters' English-language international services.

The glassy middle building is the International Broadcast Center, which was built to allow foreign media crew to broadcast coverage of the 1988 Summer Olympic Games here in Seoul, to their home countries. It still displays the symbol of the 1988 Games.

KBS-produced soap operas and dramas are a key component of the so-called Korean Wave that has taken Asia, and parts of the world beyond, by storm.
