ENA will broadcast big sports games during the Chuseok holiday.
KT ENA (CEO: Kim Ho-sang) said it will simulcast the Oct. 6 match, which affiliate The Sky K (SKY K) is broadcasting, on the ENA channel.
ENA channel has strengthened its position as a youth-oriented channel targeting men and women ages 20-49 by presenting a solid lineup of dramas such as 금쪽 같은 내스타 and "Ms. Incognito", and original variety shows such as "나는SOLO", "World Dice Tour", "어디로 튈지 몰라", and "길치라도 괜찮아", and it plans to expand genres through this sports broadcast to offer a variety of genres in line with its slogan "everyday new ENA."
The Oct. 6 match is between MLS (Major League Soccer) club Los Angeles FC (hereinafter LA FC), the team Son Heung-min plays for, and Atlanta United FC (hereinafter Atlanta), and will air at 10 a.m. Korea time. The broadcast will feature top commentators Lee Young-pyo as analyst and Lee Gwang-yong as caster so viewers can enjoy the match comfortably.
Son Heung-min started and scored the opening goal just 53 seconds after kickoff in the 2025 MLS season Western Conference away match against the San Jose Earthquakes at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on the 14th, vividly demonstrating his presence.
Meanwhile, The Sky K (SKY K) began broadcasting MLS matches in March, and through this simultaneous ENA scheduling it plans to broaden coverage so many viewers in Korea who support Son Heung-min can watch the match on TV, solidifying its position as a sports channel. SkySports is set to change its corporate name to ENA SPORTS on Oct. 1.
