Game industry is one of the most marketable area in the age of the $4^{th}$ industrial revolution. However, game industry in Korea is restricted by social and cultural issues. This study investigates biased image of game players and sexual commercialization of game contents as obstacles of Korean game industry invigoration. We find that the biased image of game players is still existed, and the commercialization of sex is considered as disincentive to develop modern game industry. Most of the respondents reports that sexual commercialization of game contents should be regulated as a factor that would harm Korean game industry.

Ryuseo(類書) is a type of traditional books and seems like today's encyclopedia. For compilation of this book, the contents with good ideas and the improvement in method of editing are very important. The process of development, basic form, reception and transformation, the method of succession in today were investigated with the traditional Ryuseo through this study. In Korea, the publishing of this book in the beginning was just republishing of Chinese Ryuseo. During the reign of king Sunjo of Chosun dynasty, Ryuseo for Korean, "Daedongeunbugunok(大東韻府群玉)" was published. Also the basic form of Ryuseo had to be changed in this period. Kimyuk increased practical use of this book by summarizing "Samunryuchui(事文類聚)". The first complete Korean Ryuseo was "Kosachalyo(故事撮要)" that was published in 1554, king Myungjong. In the book was included contents about diplomacy and daily life by Eosukkwun. In 1771, king Youngjo, "Kosashinseo(故事新書)" was published. It had more information about actual life than Kosachalyo. Ryuseo should be considered with two things when it is read by modern readers. One is the development of material for study and another is to ensure the readers. So Ryuseo could be a good basic material for developing contents of internet. Reproduction of this book by new one should be considered with increasing its function. Because reforming classical material by digital one is necessary for daily life in today.

<Deep Sea> is an 3D animated film that stands out for its exceptional special effects and distinctive artistic style. The film employs a multitude of dazzling and vibrant ink particles, creating a strong sense of three-dimensionality and weightlessness, while simultaneously portraying a dreamlike and elegant representation of a deep sea ink painting. Furthermore, through the utilization of fragmented stream of consciousness narrative technique, the film establishes a unique artistic effect infused with a Chinese atmosphere. This paper by analyzing the unique particle ink art style and color and stream of consciousness narrative methods in film, this paper discusses the innovative art style generated by traditional ink art style combined with three-dimensional technology, and the integration of traditional ink art ideas and artistic conception in animated films.

The Japanese colonial authority investigated and institutionalized Korea's cultural properties for the purpose of governance. This process was conducted by Japanese officials and scholars, and systematized after making some changes. The Reservation Rule (1916) and the cultural properties designated in 1934 were actually the starting point for Korea's current cultural property policy. In the view of lineup of 'committee' that consider all of cultural property and changing of 'cultural property list', this study discusses the cultural property policy implemented by Joseon's Government-General, which can be summarized as follows. First, Joseon's Government-General formed a committee (Preservation Society) to formulate the cultural property policy, and had the policy implemented by appointing Governor officials who accounted for more than half the total number of officials of the institution. Although some Koreans were concerned about this, they had no influence on the matter. Second, the cultural properties listed by Joseon's Government-General are divided into three periods according to the lists. The compilation of the first list was led by Sekino Tadashi, who represented the grading system (1909~1916); while that of the second list (1917~1933) was led by Guroita Gatsumi, who represented listing (1917~1933). Guroita Gatsumi tried to erase Sekino Tadashi's list by formulating the cultural property policy and the list - a situation that was revealed in the system and the actual contents of the list. The third list was made as a list of designated cultural properties in 1934. This list also reflected the results of Sekino Tadashi investigation of the important cultural properties at existing temples that had been excluded from the previous regulations (1934~1945). In this way, a basic framework for the listing of Korean cultural properties was established in 1934.

In order to revitalize the regional economy and culture, understanding what cultural resources are about is of prime importance. When considering cultural resources, one ought to appreciate that developing content industries can contribute to the development of the regional economy and the sustainability of the country. Recently, vast amounts of aid and financial resources have been earmarked for the development of the national cultural industries. Each region of our country has enhanced its autonomy in terms of decision-making, thus increasing the resort to cultural and natural resources. However, when industrializing and excavating hidden cultural resources, vitality should be breathed into regional and national economies. Moreover, as an issue of national importance, this could held resolving pressing matters such as the creation of added-value jobs, the merger of industries, basic architecture, societal problems and the revitalization of rural communities, to name but a few. Therefore, so as to develop regions through the revitalization of regional economies and the improvement of infrastructures, it is necessary to encourage cultural industries and the excavation of cultural resources. The present research suggests to upgrade the values of regional and cultural resources so as to revitalize cultural regional resources through concrete policies. This basically implies carrying out a program which aims at diffusing cultural values by resorting to cultural resources as tools of revitalization. Finally, the importance of cultural resources must be reflected in a diversified spectrum of policies aimed at bringing values out of cultural resources. Yet, thorough researches on proposals for a better use of regional resources are still much needed.

In regard to media contents of digital heritage reconstruction, they are actively produced in museums, art galleries and special exhibitions. However, there is no concrete guideline for the productions and the pipelines are not systematic either. This makes the process ineffective regarding time and cost. Media contents production of digital heritage reconstruction might seem similar to film or documentary production, but it is important to construct its specific pipeline based on its specific purpose. The digital Heritage group in research center for culture technology of KAIST produced media contents which digitally reconstructed various heritages such as Persepolis, Iranian remains, with National museum of Korea, Sukgulam, and Hue, an ancient city in Vietnam, with Cultural heritage administration of Korea. From these experiences and case studies, this paper will present a pipeline model for efficient production.

Globalisation has intensified the international movement of labour and South Korea is no exception. Korea, which in the past was itself a labour-exporting country, has seen a reversal in human mobility since the late 1990's with a rapid growth in immigration and a transformation of a previously almost ethnically homogenous society. In this context, the important questions about the cultural and political implications associated with the construction of minority representations in the media have remained highly unexplored. The starting point of this study is an examination of the vital role of public service broadcasting (PSB) in Korean society, where ethnic minorities have increasingly become visible. The study shows the significant role of PSB in representing cultural diversity in public debates and the ways in which such representations and their dissemination reflect media power.
