AXN is a South Korean cable and satellite television channel focusing on American crime and action TV series.
[1] Also, it was a version exclusively broadcast to South Korea, different from original United States television channel, in scheduling and programmes.
[2] In April 2011, after switching South Korean partner to what was known then as CU Media (which later became a television division of IHQ, which is in turn owned by cable television provider D'Live), AXN began broadcasting from Seoul, and became a part of CU Media.
[3] While respecting South Korean TV rating system and mandatory carriage of local programmes, this enabled Korean voice-overs on their trailers and broadcast of local commercial advertisements.
In January 2020, AXN South Korea, along with the other Sony-owned Asian channels, were sold to former Sony Pictures Television executives at KC Global Media.
