The sinking of the M/V SEWOL in April 2014 was not a mere marine accident, but a marine catastrophe. This grim case developed into a social tragedy that impinged the national sentiment and communal integrity. It is imperative that thorough provisions and measures be outlined at the national level with regard to massive marine accidents, oil pollution, and natural disasters that might critically affect government affairs. Pivoting on "The Black Swan Theory," a concept of improperly rationalizing a national crisis based on uncertainties, this research assesses a variety of response strategies that minimize the national economic and social damage caused by a large-scale marine disaster. Along with the effort of minimizing any potential defects in each protective barrier, the "Black Swan Detection System of the Marine Disaster" needs to be incorporated to prevent cases wherein such defects lead to an actual crisis. Maritime safety must be systematically unified under a supervisory organization, and a structure for maritime crisis on-scene command and cooperation must likewise be established in order that every force on the scene of a marine disaster may act effectively and consistently under the direction of an on-scene commander.

The purpose of this study is to propose a management plan of the pop-up library model that is developed as part of the outreach library service recently. Especially this study focused the method for meeting the citizen's right to know by providing various information of the pop-up library in social fields such as a national disasters. The survey and In-depth interview (a volunteer of Sewol ferry disaster and a participant of 2013 Busan International Film Festival) were done for this research. As the results of the investigation, the lack of communication and information between members in constrained situations were pointed pointed out as important problems. With these findings, this study suggested the pop-up library model management plan in information-constrained situations.

본 논문에서는 한국사회 내 2014년 이후 2022년 현재까지 진행되고 있는 다양한 생애주기별 재난안전교육 체계를 분석하여 재난 발생 시 자신의 생명과 재산을 보호할 수 있는 재난안전교육 인프라 구축을 위한 제언을 통해 시민 대상별 최적화된 재난안전교육 체계화를 모색하고자한다. 2014년 4월16일에 발생한 세월호 침몰 사고는 2015년 '재난 및 안전관리 기본법' 시행규칙의 일부 개정 및 이에 근거한 '국민안전의 날'이 국민안전의 중요성을 되새기자는 의미로 제정된 계기가 되었을 뿐만 아니라, 재난안전교육에 관한 전반적인 변화의 필요성을 깨닫게 해준 가슴 아픈 사건이었다. 이에 서울시 소방재난본부 현장대응단에서 2014년 말부터 시민대상 초기대응을 위한 재난안전 교육체계를 기획하고 10만의 안전리더 양성을 추진했다. 동시에 다양한 형태의 시민대상의 재난안전교육이 시, 도별로 진행되었다. 특히 서울 시민의 1%인 10만 시민안전파수꾼 양성을 위해 진행되었던 시민안전파수꾼 정책 사업을 위한 재난안전 교육체계는 시민을 대상으로 황금시간 목표달성을 통한 초기대응으로 재난규모를 최소화 할 수 있도록 안전에 관한 소양교육의 기본을 구성해 교육했고, 이는 시민 대상 재난안전교육의 방향에 대해 시사하는 바가 크다. 정책사업 초기 대학생 이상의 성인을 교육 대상으로 선정하여 교육이 진행되었고, 그 후 2018년 이후 고등학교 이상으로 교육의 대상범위를 확대하여 진행했지만 안전리더로서 역할은 한국사회 전체 구성원들의 인식이 필요한 부분으로 어린 시절부터의 반복 교육을 통한 안전문화가 시스템으로 구축되어 자연스럽게 습득되어 질 수 있도록 해야 한다는 필요성을 절감하게 되었다. 이에 다양한 생애주기별 재난안전교육 체계를 분석하여 국민스스로 재난 발생 시 자신의 생명과 재산을 보호할 수 있는 재난안전교육 인프라 구축을 위해 시민대상 재난 안전교육을 '황금시간 목표달성'을 준거틀로 기존의 중앙, 서울시, 부산시, 경기도 및 산하 교육청에서 실시해온 재난안전교육 체계 관련 문헌의 비교분석을 통해 시민 대상별 생애주기별 최적화된 초기대응을 위한 재난안전교육 체계를 모색하여 재난안전교육의 방향을 제시해 보고자 한다.

Recently, the disaster situation has been diversified and compounded worldwide as well as in Korea. And the damage scale of each disasters have increased, and following economic loss is also increasing immensely. In Korea, especially the out break frequency of large-scale disasters has increased. Disasters caused by earthquakes are also very likely to occur. When a major accident such as Mauna resort collapse accident, Ferry sewol sinking accident occurred, systematic emergency medical care at the site at the time of disaster occurred in order to operate an emergency medical facility corresponding to the site, which is not systematic. The need for this service is urgent. If highly reliable emergency medical system function at appropriate times in the disaster site, secondary damage can be reduced and the whole situation would be back to normal shortly. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an emergency medical system capable of quickly and safely responding to disaster sites in relation to various damage scale. For the purpose, thorough analysis on mobile medical units of inside and outside the country was accomplished. As a result, Mobile Medical Unit of outside the country are trailer type, tent type, container type etc. At home, these types have been studied and will be proposed early next year as a temporary solution. Here we introduce suitable types for our country.

This study identified terminologies related to the proximity and frequency of disaster by social network analysis (SNA) and text mining, and then expressed the outcome into a mind map. The termdocument matrix of text mining was utilized for the terminology proximity analysis, and the SNA closeness centrality was calculated to organically express the relationship of the terminologies through a mind map. By analyzing terminology proximity and selecting disaster response-related terminologies, this study identified the closest field among all the disaster response fields to disaster response and the core terms in each disaster response field. This disaster response terminology analysis could be utilized in future core term-based terminology standardization, disaster-related knowledge accumulation and research, and application of various response scenario compositions, among others.

After the Sewol ferry-sinking incident in 2014, the public interest in safety at sea increased. In order to save and secure the initial response time required for sea rescues, not only the rescue organization, but also the victim needs to save and maintain golden time to secure the necessary time for rescue personnel. The purpose of this study was to investigate ways to maintain the psychological stability of victims during their rescue in the case of a mass rescue operation by using the oil boom installed on board oil spill response vessels. Through buoyancy tests and the development of oil booms in sea areas, it confirmed the buoyancy of two adults weighing 70 kg each per meter of oil boom could be maintained when a lifeline was installed on the side of the oil boom, and that it was possible to keep afloat four persons weighing 70 kg each on both sides of the oil boom. It also confirmed the buoyancy for three adults weighting 70 kg each per eight meters was maintained when riding on the top of the oil boom. As a method of rescue, it was found that the fastest and most accurate way to rescue victims was a rescue boat held at the rear end of the oil boom to lead to victims. In conclusion, the rescue team could utilize the oil boom installed on board the oil spill response vessel located near the marine accident site to save and secure the initial response time required for the rescue team to arrive. The victims in distress holding onto the lifeline or riding on the top of oil boom kept afloat at sea could maintain their psychological stability until the mass rescue operation initiated.

Disaster is externally an incident that causes enormous damage to society and humanity. Disaster also internally stimulate a variety of personal and collective complexes in the human mind. The sinking of Sewol Ferry in 2014 was a disaster that took away countless lives. People not only in South Korea but around the world were deeply affected by the incident. While directly taking part in disaster mental health support and meeting with people who were sunk in sorrow and helplessness and feeling the collapse of conceit against modern technological civilization, I realised the need to conduct study and research on the conscious and unconscious response from the viewpoint of analytical psychology. This research investigates the response and management of disaster in prehistoric times mainly through myths and petroglyphs. This study aims to consider the problems and improvements of disaster response in the modern times by finding the distinct cultural characteristics and the universal, fundamental, and archetypal human nature inherent in the concepts of disaster and responses to disaster and discovering their meaning and wisdom. Creation myths around the world show that in the beginning there was a disaster as part of the universal creation. Humanity has understood disaster as a periodic renewal of the world by the oppositeness between destruction and creation and had the idea that violation of taboo to be the cause of disaster since prehistoric times. Disaster could be interpreted as the intention of the Self that renews the fundamental consciousness through the externally appearing destructive action. Various rituals performed by man on earth renovates the human consciousness during a mental crisis situation, such as a disaster, and corresponds with the unconscious to create an opportunity for psychological regeneration that seeks harmony. Modern society has neglected the importance of internal dealing and the suffering human soul and concentrated on the external, technological and administrative actions related with disaster response. We cannot determine the occurrence of a disaster, but we can determine how to deal with the disaster. While developing external disaster response, we need to ponder on the meaning of disaster and conduct internal disaster response that care for human mind. Through this, we will understand the meaning of pain and have renewed mature psyche.
