The new look for South Korea's MBC is part of a new graphic identity created by the ordinary.people group in conjunction with MBC' in-house graphic department.
Here is a compilation of graphics

Here is a minute long version of their new station song, as well

MBC should have let the ordinary.people to create news intro sequences too, so they fall in line with the rest of identity packs.

Also, a little complaint about the agency's use of Konglish (or broken English as used by Koreans) word in the video: They should have used "jingle(s)" instead of "logo song".

I don't know if ordinary.people was involved in the design of the new MBC Newsdesk and NEWS TODAY intros, but I think the two new intros have already incorporated a couple of elements from the new graphics, such as the slanting stripes with two colors rotating.

IIRC the news opens were produced in-house by MBC

I know, but the glossy 3D CGI intro based on flat and minimalist elements? I think that's a mismatch.

I see they've started letting the presenters read the headlines, as opposed to having the announcer do it; I always thought that was rather unusual. All in all, I think it looks all right, if a little cold. Also, I notice that their website hasn't been updated with the new colour scheme yet.

Well, I have to say that I still miss the 2012 theme...
