The Korea Media Rating Board (Korean: 영상물등급위원회; RR: Yeongsangmul Deunggeup Wiwonhoe; KMRB) is a public organization that classifies films, videos, and other motion pictures into age-based ratings and recommends domestic performances of foreign artists. Through these rating systems, the Korea Media Rating Board provides domestic viewers with accurate information for their viewing and protects children from harmful and unsuitable materials.
Established in 1966 as the "Korean Art and Culture Ethics Committee", the organization changed the name to the "Korean Ethics Committee for Performing Arts" in 1976 and The "Korean Council Performing Arts Promotion" in 1997. In June 1999, it finally changed to the current name of "Korea Media Rating Board".

Film ratings
The Korea Media Rating Board (영상물등급위원회) in Busan divides licensed films into the following categories:[1][2]
ALL (전체관람가) – Green label: Film suitable for all ages.
12 (12세이상관람가) – Yellow label: Film intended for audiences 12 and over. Underage audiences accompanied by a parent or guardian aged 19 and over are allowed.
15 (15세이상관람가) – Orange label: Film intended for audiences 15 and over. Underage audiences accompanied by a parent or guardian aged 19 and over are allowed.
18 (청소년관람불가) – Red label: No one under 18 is allowed to watch this film.[3])
Restricted screening (제한상영가) – White label: Film needs a certain restriction in screening or advertisement as it is considered a highly bad influence to universal human dignity, social value, good customs or national emotion due to excessive expression of nudity, violence, social behavior, etc.
On January 1, 2021, the KMRB updated their maturity icons.[4]
Classification ratings are determined by the following:[5]
Theme (주제) - The effect on the formation emotions, values of group of age as well as the ability to understand and accept the theme.
Sex and Nudity (선정성) - Level of exposure of human body as well as caress, sexual intercourse and other sexual activities.
