1) Online streaming sites
The streaming sites are by fans who have KBS KONG and they stream it online for other fans to watch. It is easy since you just need to go to their site, and you do not need to log in at all. The down side, slight delay in broadcasting and you are not able to leave message to the DJs. And if the adminstrator is not free that day, you will not get to see any stream at all.

2) KBS KONG
This option is more complicated. You need to become a member of KBS first, download the software KONG, then you are able to listen and watch Bora of KTR. Good thing about this is that it is faster and you can leave message on it, where the DJs will read during broadcasting. Leaving messages on KONG is free. Here is the step by step on how to get membership and use KONG.
