This study reviewed academic research related to the cyberethics in the field of humanities and social sciences. The most active and vibrant field of cyberethics is Pedagogy, followed by Law, communication, philosophy, social welfare science, sociology, business administration and psychology. In the field of cyberethics every major has different research themes. The research trend of cyberethics does not reflect distinctiveness of cyberspace, remaining in previous ethical philosophy. Further, it just establishes abstract morality. In the overall research of cyberethics lacks recognition of information human rights, therefore, it shows little tendency to living ethics. Moral recognition based on information human rights should be emphasized, and multi-disciplinary study is requested for future studies.

As artificial intelligence services targeting humans increase, social demands are increasing that artificial intelligence should also be made on an ethical basis. Following this trend, the government and businesses are preparing policies and norms related to artificial intelligence ethics. In order to establish reasonable policies and norms, the first step is to understand the public's perceptions. In this paper, social data and news comments were collected and analyzed to understand the public's perception related to artificial intelligence and ethics. Interest analysis, emotional analysis, and discourse analysis were performed and visualized on the collected datasets. As a result of the analysis, interest in "artificial intelligence ethics" and "artificial intelligence" favorability showed an inversely proportional correlation. As a result of discourse analysis, the biggest issue was "personal information leakage," and it also showed a discourse on contamination and deflection of learning data and whether computer-made artificial intelligence should be given a legal personality. This study can be used as data to grasp the public's perception when preparing artificial intelligence ethical norms and policies.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for developing future ethics education programs by surveying healthcare providers working at institutions of various sizes, using Ethical Issues in Clinical Practice tool. Data were collected from 149 healthcare providers working at medical institutions in G-do. Analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Multiple regression with IBM SPSS WIN/21.0. Needs for ethics education was inversely correlated to end-of-life treatment issues (r=-.22, p=.007) and patient care issues (r=-.28, p<.001). The most influential factor on the subjects' needs for ethics education was patient care issues (β=-.246, p=.035), followed by Buddhism (β=.208, p=.010). The explanatory power was 13.4% (F=5.596, p<.001). Therefore, when organizing the contents of ethics education program, patient care issues should be included to meet the needs of the subjects. Also, a customized program regarding the subjects' religion is necessary.
