GOM Player (Gretech Online Movie Player) is a freeware media player for Microsoft Windows. It is the primary client player for South Korean GOM-TV and is more popular in South Korea than any other media player. Key strengths are the ability to play the majority of media files without the need to obtain a codec, and the ability to play some broken media files, both advantages over traditional players, like Windows Media Player. GOM player can also play .flv files. It was created by the Gretech Corporation of South Korea. It was criticized for stealing code from Media Player Classic (not Home Cinema) by Gabest, the project founder.
