The KBS Labor Union, a minority KBS union, met with the leadership of the Korean Federation of Trade Unions on the morning of the 26th to establish the Federation of Media Industry Unions under the Korean Trade Union. They aim to establish a media industry union alliance under the Korean Federation of Trade Unions in the second half of next year.

Currently, the KBS majority union is the KBS headquarters of the national media labor union under the KCTU. There is no media industry union in the Korean Federation of Trade Unions yet. Industry union means organizing workers in the same industry into one union.
