Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

Every source for this story reports from South Korea.

K-pop boy group Riize will release its second full-length album in spring 2027. According to SM Entertainment, the group's label, a prologue single will be released on October 26 ahead of the album.
