At about 1158 UTC on Wednesday, the 16th day of July 2025, I tuned in to KBS World Radio in the Republic of Korea (South Korea), broadcasting on 5920 kHz in the Indonesian language.

The broadcast was being transmitted from the Kimjae 100 kW transmitter in South Korea.
The overall reception of KBS World Radio was good. There was some slight interference from China Radio International in the Cantonese language on the same frequency. There was some occasional interference from a digital type signal.
