What does the Korean word "방통위" mean?

The term 방통위 doesn’t appear in online dictionaries, so it’s easy to become confused about what it means.

The word “방통위” is an abbreviation of 대한민국 방송통신위원회(大韓民國 放送通信委員會), which is the Korea Communications Commission.

In English Korea Communications Commission is often abbreviated as KCC.

I’ve highlighted the characters which correspond to the abbreviation:
