Not only does VTV broadcast 4K television channels, but previously SCTV has also done so and brought a lot of success to this station. VTV plans to experiment with broadcasting on paid television systems and DVB-T2 terrestrial digital systems. This is also considered a suitable time to launch programs with 4K content support because this is the time when almost every family chooses a 4K TV for themselves.
