To tune in and listen to content transmitted via radio waves.
Contexto cultural
The 'Visible Radio' (보이는 라디오) phenomenon is huge. Most major stations (MBC, SBS, KBS) stream their studio live on YouTube or their own apps so fans can see the DJ and guests. Late-night radio hosts are often called 'The Guardians of the Night'. Students studying for the Suneung (CSAT) often rely on these programs for emotional support. Sending text messages to radio stations is a common hobby. Stations have short codes (e.g., #1077) where listeners send 'Sayeon' for a small fee. Radio is considered the most reliable medium during national emergencies or North Korean provocations, as it doesn't require internet or complex infrastructure.
