Don't think this is in HD elsewhere right in European skies?

 

[Analoguesat]

No I dont think it is.

The encryption flag appeared today, but still FTA. Does that mean, encrypted soon?

 

[dankargo]

Not viewable on a Sky digibox I guess?

Not if the encryption flag has been set.

My box may be deceiving me but it looks like this is FTA once again.

Has it been confirmed Arirang will be on the Sky platform?
If so the K-pop fans will be going in overdrive if it launches on Sky and yes it is fta again.

hoi,
Yes
Britain’s largest satellite network platform company, SKY, and free digital satellite network platform business, Freesat, will be airing Arirang TV throughout the U.K. within this year.
Arirang TV will begin satellite programming via the two platforms as soon as it obtains the Ofcom License, rents a satellite, resolves copyright issues and builds an EPG system.
