Arirang TV CEO Sohn Jie-ae was the only Korean included on a list of Asia's 32 most powerful women working in the world of media by Singapore's ContentAsia magazine, released in September.

In an interview with the magazine, Sohn said, "Women execs in Asia should make a much more aggressive effort to be included in major decision-making processes in the corporate world."

She added that the hardest part of being a female leader in Korea is balancing work and family life given the high expectations of women to take care of their husbands and children in Korean culture.
