Far East Broadcasting Company (FEBC)-Korea Chairman Billy Kim announced on Wednesday that the Christian broadcaster is prepared to expand its ministry into North Korea once the isolated state allows it. During a press conference at FEBC-Korea's headquarters in Seoul, Kim emphasized that despite the decades-long suppression of faith in North Korea, the broadcaster's resources and training are ready to establish local broadcasting branches if given the opportunity.
The press conference coincided with FEBC-Korea's 70th anniversary, commemorating seven decades of broadcasting history and outlining the organization's future vision for peace and spiritual outreach in the region. Under the tagline "70 Years of Gospel, 70 Years of Grace," FEBC-Korea highlighted its growth from a modest Christian radio network established in 1956 to a major network of 13 FM stations and 14 relay stations across the country.
The broadcaster aims to serve as a vital link to North Korea as it continues to expand its ministry.
