Word origin

The Korean compound joins 중계 (junggye, "relay") and 방송 (bangsong, "broadcast") to describe a broadcast passed on from another location.

Usage tips

  • English uses live to highlight timing, but this term can also cover a recorded relay, so live broadcast is accurate only when the event is happening as viewers watch.
