Currently, it is providing original self-produced contents such as "Chef Friendly," "Chinese Counterpoint," "Stargram," and "Hand Flavor Talk Show Veteran" along with the latest high-quality SBS and masterpiece dramas. [1] Meanwhile, the production division, which was SBS Productions' only deficit business, was merged in July 2009. [2]

UHD broadcasting began on August 1, 2016, and SBS Plus UHD (now SBS F!L UHD), a channel specializing in UHD, was launched.

In addition, SBS's Wednesday-Thursday drama "Rooftop Prince," which aired from March 21 to May 24, 2012, participated in the production of the mini-series on weekdays [3] [4] In the last episode, it was pointed out [5] that the streetlights, speakers, and information boards were broadcast, [6] Compared to the popularity of thrillers, the drama caused distrust among existing and new fans with its ambiguous and difficult genre setting of "Thriller Romantic Comedy," [7] but it has since been on the rise in ratings.
