Flame Tree TV, parent company of local channel KSPN2 and Visitor’s Channel 3, will launch a second Visitor’s Channel in Korean on Friday, Aug. 1.
Visitor’s Channel 2 will run alongside the traditional Visitor’s Channel 3, which will remain focused on the Japanese market, in more than 4,000 hotel rooms in the CNMI.
“We are excited to offer a new level of service to the growing Korean tourist market and the companies that service them,” said Flame Tree TV president Chris Nelson.
Nearly 165,000 Koreans are expected to visit Saipan, Tinian and Rota in the coming year. Visitor’s Channel 2 will include information about where to go, what to see, and what to do. The channel will also have cultural, shopping and safety information, with the eventual addition of news and weather programs for Korean tourists. Local anchor Janet Ahn will host the new program, and with a full on-site production studio and Korean staff, Flame Tree TV’s Korean Visitor’s Channel promises to be up to date with the latest news and information on local restaurants, hotels and attractions.
Korean Visitor’s Channel 2 will air 18.5 hours daily on Channel 2. Between the hours of 6pm and 10:30pm local prime-time programming, anchored by the KSPN 2 News, will air.
