Before the establishment of Jiangsu Broadcasting Corporation, the local television stations first aired in Nanjing and southern Jiangsu in October 1952. JSBC was established in June 2001 to compete with other major Television networks and expanded its network through nationwide satellite television in January 1997.
JSBC has broadcast notable programming such as If You Are the One,[1] often referred to as the Chinese version of the Australian dating game show Taken Out.
