South Korea's largest public broadcaster KBS said Monday that it has nominated the head of an affiliate as its new president.
The KBS board of directors said it plans to ask President Park Geun-hye to appoint Ko Dae-young as the new head of the broadcaster as early as Tuesday.
South Korea's broadcasting law stipulates the president's right to appoint the chief of KBS.
Ko, 60, is subject to a parliamentary confirmation hearing, though the National Assembly does not have the power to block Ko's appointment.
The nominee joined KBS in 1984 and has held various positions, including a correspondence job in Moscow, before becoming president of KBS Business, a KBS unit in charge of maintenance of broadcasting facilities. (Yonhap)
