Hundreds of foreign broadcasters crowd Arab radio waves today -- some backed by nations like the US and Russia, others by transnational movements from the Muslim Brotherhood to the Catholic Church. One network, operating on a modest budget, stands out for punching way above its weight: the Korean Broadcasting System's Arabic service. In this short documentary, Joseph Braude tells the story of the Korean network, the people who run it, and the broadcast's implications for Middle East policy, with exclusive interviews from Seoul and Washington.
