Game Rating and Administration Committee


The Game Rating and Administration Committee is the South Korean video game content rating board. A governmental organization, the GRAC rates video games to inform customers of the nature of game contents.

However, a controversy occurred because the Korea Media Rating Board rated an arcade gambling game Sea Story as if it were suitable for everyone, with allegations of misconduct.

The GRAC has been criticized as one of the elements of the Internet censorship in South Korea.
