CEO Message

CEO Greeting
“Greetings! My name is Hong Bum Shik, President of Korea Radio Promotion Association (RAPA).”
Today, radio serves as the core infrastructure for various convergent technologies—including 5G/6G wireless communications, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI). In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it has become a critical foundation that, though invisible, permeates every aspect of our daily lives and industries, enabling connectivity, communication, and the creation of new value.

Since its establishment in 1990, RAPA has leveraged its accumulated expertise and experience to advance research and technological development, foster skilled professionals, and promote the growth of the radio industry ecosystem. In a rapidly changing digital environment, we will continue our utmost efforts to ensure the sustainable progress of the radio industry and help our nation become a global leader in this field.

In particular, we believe that communication among our member companies, RAPA, and the government is crucial to the continued development of the radio sector. We will actively listen to our members, build an efficient communication and cooperation system, and faithfully serve as a bridge to achieve co-prosperity and innovation.

We kindly ask for your continued interest and support so that RAPA may remain a trusted partner in the radio and broadcasting communications sectors, shaping and leading the future of Korea’s radio and broadcasting communications industry.

Thank you.
