Behind the Track: the business after the song
A Korean-language music-industry guide covering royalties, rights, contracts, release procedures, AI rules, and practical calculators.
- For
- Korean musicians and independent music operators
- Worth noticing
- A stream calculator estimates rights-holder shares using an explicit four-won-per-play assumption; the site also links a separate shop-music fee calculator.
Field notes
The homepage divides its coverage into recurring series, including regulation explainers, a weekly-number column, and contract-clause analysis. Its calculators use concrete inputs: stream counts for estimated rights-holder allocations, and venue details such as business type and area for music fees. The featured stream example states its four-won-per-play assumption, while the page notes that approval documentation for a forthcoming rate change was not yet available.
