I don't know the details of how they use licensed music, but KBS World broadcast most of their variety shows all over the world and on the web, and wouldn't 'get away' with that, and I'm not so convinced you're right about MBC either. I don't see any proof that they haven't paid for the use of the music like any other TV / Radio station.

They probably have a set rate contract with all the companies where they just pay $X a year for free use of the entire libraries (I think the BBC has something similar?) for limited broadcast rights.

Yes they could indeed be paying a licence, but Watertower (the company that own the inception soundtrack) are very, very expensive vs alternatives such as EMI etc. Also, the trailer music for each of these films are not attacked to a commercial licence, they are strictly B2B and are sold individually at huge costs. (often when a music song is bought for a trailer, it has strings attached to be reformatted and used only for their product (see Star Trek 2009 trailer)).
Honestly, every channel in the world has at one point or another used music they do not have the licence for. You might also notice that they use the soundtrack for Naruto (Morning scenes) in RM, something that they would never get the licence too from NHK. So it's just a case of hoping no-one pays attention really. Eventually as S.Korean TV starts being exported more over the years, you will see this use of music being removed.
Interesting note, is that the BBC used a song from FFVII back when it had been released to promote a hospital drama on their air. About 1000 people reported it to Square and the BBC had to quietly remove the advert, as well as pay a substantial fine under the table.

It does, copyright infringement is everywhere and often encouraged. TV producers tell their staff that they want That exact music/That exact graphical look/That exact location, with the aim of producing an almost 1:1 replica. There is very little inspiration outside the concept design for TV, because they are too busy stealing each others ideas (and the ideas outside Korea), to notice. You can see this in a lot of graphic design, photography and website design.
I'm only talking about this with a little authority because I worked with a bunch of guys who used to work for KBS (and some for MBC) who worked in production, and they left the country because using an idea that had not already been used by another company was considered as crazy talk.
And yeah, Gwangsoo and Yuri have such great scenes together. When the subtitle comes up with, "You are a true friend" to Joongki, I couldn't stop laughing.

Oh man, I thought that was the cutest part.
Trickster said:
Pretty-boy Joonki is leaving to pursue his acting. Daesung is the goof in BigBang. Hyori is solo K-pop fox and variety queen.
This is Hyori: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=27429534&postcount=3403
Early Eunjung.
Trickster said:
Ever seen family outing? Either way, these are them
They were on the same show as JongKook and Jaesuk before RM and have amazing chemistry together. They have only said Joongki was leaving, they haven't really stated officially that he would be replaced.
Early Eunjung is great Salazar.

Yeah it was quite awesome. You could see that she was getting really upset about it and started to cry, which caused everyone to step back a bit and the MC to try and save face. Well everyone stepped back instead of Haha, who went in for the kill!

HaHa recognising his villain role has been so amazing.
Tence said:
Yeah - they did a quiz and made it so that she lost - having organised it beforehand with the producers that if they could do so without her realising that something was wrong, they would get running balls - which are the prizes of the game.
Tence said:
The point of the show is to get the Running Man balls. The more you have, the more chances you have to escape punishment. For certain guests, the main cast team up and have to trick the guest somehow in order for them to win a ball each. In this case, they had to have her fail at the game or something like that. She felt so bad that she sucked she started to cry.
Trickster said:
You need to see the episode, because she tried really really hard to get them to understand the answer to the questions, and they tried to act incredibly stupid.
I'm not going to stoop down to the flame, but I do think the T&C should be changed to make mocking women who cry a banable offence.
its a joke
wasn't it kind of that she was letting the team down by being bad at it? she thought they were all working together, and they were being a bit mean about how much she sucked
when really they were tricking her and making her look bad because everyone else was cheating, so that they could get the balls.
her WAAAAAAAA was hilarious. so powerful
