The Game Rating and Administration Committee (Korean: 게임물관리위원회, romanization: Geimmul Gwalli-Wiwonhoe; GRAC) 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.

Before 2006, the Korea Media Rating Board was the authority in rating video games, until a controversy struck when they rated a gambling game supposedly "suitable for all ages", and thus the Game Rating Board (GRB) was born. Under the current guidelines, games containing elements of gambling must be "rated 15+" or higher.

Ratings

  • 전체이용가 (Everyone) – Games that can be played by anyone.
  • 12세이용가 (Rated 12+) – Games that are available from 12 years and above.
  • 15세이용가 (Rated 15+) – Games that are available from 15 years and above.
  • 청소년이용불가 (Unavailable to minors) – Games that are not available to minors.
  • 등급분류거부 (Refusal of classification) – The classification of the game was rejected by the GRAC and cannot be legally sold or advertised within South Korea.
