SEOUL, Dec. 31 (Korea Bizwire) — Time spent watching television increased throughout all age groups this year due to the coronavirus.
TNMS, a Seoul-based company that tracks viewership, conducted a study of 9,000 people from 3,200 households, revealing that the average time spent daily watching TV per household was 9 hours and 3 minutes, up by 32 minutes compared to last year.
