It is reported that CBS in the United States has poured a large amount of up to 10 billion won into an exclusive interview with the Prince Harry and the couple of the United Kingdom.
The Wall Street Journal reported that CBS paid $7 million to up to $9 million, and about 1 billion won in our money to Harpo Productions, the production company of Oprah Winfrey, to purchase a license for a two-hour interview with Prince Harry and Princess Meghan Markle.
CBS’s interview with Prince Harry is scheduled to be aired on the evening of the 7th in the United States by Winfrey on CBS.
US media reported that other major broadcasters, such as NBC and ABC, have also stepped up before securing licenses to obtain the right to broadcast interviews.
After securing the exclusive license, CBS has charged about 370 million won per 30 seconds, which is twice the usual advertising cost for advertisements on this interview broadcast.
Michelle Tober, senior editor of the American magazine People, told Reuters that “I have never seen people go so crazy about royal stories after the wedding of Harry and William.”
Ahead of the airing of this interview, where Prince Harry and Princess Meghan Markle are expected to make a’bomb remark’ on the process from marriage to leaving the royal family, the nervous war between the royal family and these couples continues to rise.
In the video released in advance, Markle said, “I feel really liberated,” and “I can speak for myself.”
Recently, a British media reported that Queen Markle was harassing royal staff, and the royal family announced the launch of an investigation.
According to Reuters, on the day of the interview broadcast between Harry and Markle, the British royal family plans to deliver a message commending the unity and dedication of the Commonwealth countries in the Corona 19 pandemic.
