This study discussed the meaning of a drone, and especially drone journalism and legal and ethical issues around that, at an introductory dimension, which is used in various social bases, but is still just an academic discussion at the beginning stage. As a methodology, content analysis was used. It seems that drone journalism has high diffusibility as a technology with high 'relative advantage', 'compatibility', 'trial ability' and 'observability' and low 'complexity' in terms of the diffusion of innovation theory. However, it will be very likely that controversies will be raised, such as safety issue due to collision and crash, a dispute over violation of privacy that may seriously infringe privacy like individual portrait rights and a controversy about the accuracy and source of information as drone filming low price and ease of use. Suggest solutions to legal and ethical issues based on existing research. Technical stability is required. Also, it is necessary to change the awareness of journalists about the drones coverage and to educate ethics, and it is necessary to establish social public opinion on issues such as privacy violation and establish system and legal measures through it. Future research is expected to carry out empirical research including journalists and public awareness surveys.

The purpose of this study was to classify VR programs according to their characteristics and associations by the disaster management phase and firefighting school curriculum, and set priorities among VR fire training and training programs using AHP analysis., The relative priority is given considering its importance and urgency. As a result of the study, firefighting education and training classes showed the highest level of response. The relative priority of the subcategories was highest in the prevention stage. The simulation implementation for the evacuation experience was highest in closed spaces, such as a subway, and the simulation for the special firefighting vehicle was highest in the contrast phase. In the response phase, real fire simulation training was the highest. In the recovery phase, virtual reality training was the most effective in determining the fire situation based on the fire database.

Virtual training is a kind of training that proceeds as if it were a real situation. In recent years, there has been a growing demand for experiencing a situation in which a virtual reality technology has not been experienced directly in the real world due to the rapid development of the technology. Especially, safety education is very necessary in Korea where safety accidents are caused by many disasters. Therefore, simulation of disaster response training using virtual reality is more urgent than ever. Although the automatic defibrillator is the medical device that is most needed to rescue patients with cardiac arrest, few people know how to use it. Therefore, there are very few cases where the use of automatic defibrillators has saved the patient's life in Korea. The proposed Automated External Defibrillator virtual training system enables immersive and experiential training in real situations and effective training at low cost.

With about 75% of the population of Korea criticizing the government's disaster policy and a failure to respond to large-scale emergency like the Sewol ferry sinking means that there is a deep distrust in the government. In order to prevent dreadful disasters such as the Sewol ferry sinking, it is important to secure a prime time with respect to disaster safety. Improving crisis management skills and managerial role of police officers who are in close proximity to the people is necessary for the success of disaster management. With disaster management as one of the most essential missions of the police, as a part of a national crisis management, a step by step strengthening of the disaster safety management system of the police is necessary, as below. First, at the prevention phase, law enforcement officers were not injected into for profit large-scale assemblies or events, but in the future the involvement, injection should be based on the level of potential risk, rather than profitability. In the past and now, the priortiy was the priority was on traffic flow, traffic communication, however, the paradigm of traffic policy should be changed to a safety-centered policy. To prevent large-scale accidents, police investigators should root out improper routines and illegal construction subcontracting. The police (intelligence) should strengthen efforts to collect intelligence under the subject of "safety". Second, with respect to the preparatory phase, on a survey of police officers, the result showed that 72% of police officers responded that safety management was not related to the job descriptions of the police. This, along with other results, shows that the awareness of disaster safety must be adopted by, or rather changed in the police urgently. The training in disaster safety education should be strengthened. A network of experts (private, administrative, and police) in safety management should be established to take advantage of private resources with regard to crisis situtions. Third, with respect to the response phase, for rapid first responses to occur, a unified communication network should be established, and a real-time video information network should be adopted by the police and installed in the police situation room. Fourth, during the recovery phase, recovery teams should be injected, added and operated to minimize secondary damage.

With an entering into force of OPRC-HNS started in June 14th 2007, establishment of response system in a nationwide scale to take care of accidents is required to respond rapidly and effectively. This necessities drove us to analyze national contingency plan for chemicals including national response system against accidents, which is in operation in the US. Main characteristics of the system are well described as an integrated incident command system with a cooperation of responsibilities facilities, manpower, and technical support. In addition, state anψor local authorities tend to have responsibilities on management of disaster with its response activities. Polluters are also charged to pay expenses 3 times expensive provided state or local authorities are conducted. In general, response activities are conducted by private sectors. However, the government will take action with Superfund if the response capacity is over than the polluters can. However, safety are regarded as a primary factor to be considered in the response activities, and try not to recover any pollutants. Personals belonging to USCG and EPA are required to complete specialized courses to promαe professional skills, and are also welcomed to participate in "certification program"

As a basic data to build a countermeasures against coastal disaster, the conscious survey of people living around the coastal are is needed. This study performed the conscious survey on 5 islands located at Korean southeast ocean including Youngdo of Busan. Among many respondents, 503 effective answers are got and followings are the analyzed results. Among the various kinds of disasters, especially the typhoon(28%), storm surge(19%), earthquake(15%) are selected as menacing disasters in mind to coastal inhabitants. Typhoon(60%) and storm surge(21%) were the representative disasters that the coastal inhabitants experienced. 67% among the respondents get the disaster-related information from TV and/or commercial medias, and other 21% depend on their own experiences. Although 33% of respondents attended the disaster-related training and the training time was less than 2 hours, they answered the training was very helpful. Over 85% among the respondents answered they will evacuate if a disaster occur, but only 19% know the evacuee shelter(s). Except the foods, various living goods are selected and willing to carry with for living at shelter if they have to evacuate.

The purpose of this study is to improve the capacity of public officials that can respond quickly and effectively in the event of food and medical products crisis. In order to improve the emergency response capacity, it must be preceded to identify what kinds of response activities and capacities are needed in case of food and medical product crisis. To this end, this study examined the definition of food and drug related crisis, and investigated and analyzed domestic and international leading researches and data about the capacity related to emergency, crisis or disaster. Based on the result of the analysis, the crisis response capacity was defined as 'the ability to quickly perform response tasks at the time of crisis', and the response tasks were identified by analysing the crisis response manuals of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. Since identifying the response tasks clearly can be a basis for training, exercise, and evaluation, it is expected to contribute to enhance the crisis response capabilities directly and effectively.
