They launched something, But..

I just knew POSTECH launched service offering the video of open lecture on their media website. This is av.postech.ac.kr
However,, I'm afraid to say that's suck... it doesn't mean they are really suck. I think they could be better, and should be. But they've been not yet, even though they could afford to be cool.

I know they have high quality open lectures, forums run by a various research centers, and notable faculties. Most of all, they have the great reputaion for top-notch science school.
For example, the university has grown into an institution that is known for its research and its professors have written an average of 4.4 SCI (Science Citation Index) research papers per professor in 2005. Earnings from research conducted at POSTECH total 435 million won ($370,000) per faculty a year ,according to Koreaherald 15Mar2007. Article 1:POSTECH Spent Most Money on Students [The Chosun Ilbo 23Sep2008], Article 2: Kaist takes back No. 1 spot from Postech in rankings[JoongAng Daily 29Sep2008]

That's reason why they can afford to gather good enough videos more. They need to live up to their reputation.
