The Korean medical expense insurance system can be said to be a hybrid system in which public insurance and private insurance are subscribed. It is necessary to examine what factors of the subjects cause differences in the willingness to cancel private insurance. The subjects of this study were composed based on the 2nd Korean Health Panel data from 2019. Chi-square independence test and logistic regression analysis were used to identify the major factors affecting the cancellation of private health insurance. The willingness to cancel insurance was lower for women, and in terms of lifestyle habits, the willingness to cancel insurance was lower for subjects who had regular exercise habits in the past year, were non-smokers, and drank less frequently. In addition, subjects with chronic diseases had a lower willingness to cancel compared to subjects without chronic diseases, and in particular, subjects with cardiovascular disease, malignant neoplasms, and joint disease had a lower willingness to cancel compared to subjects without the disease. In terms of the subjects' health awareness status, subjects without depression or anxiety had a lower willingness to cancel.

This study aims to reveal the various differences within the factors that influence use satisfaction, continuous use intention, and media substitution intention, specifically in regard to the use motives and use behaviors of Netflix viewers. This study's results demonstrate that the following various factors affected use satisfaction, continuous use intention, and media substitution intention in differential ways. Firstly, the diversity of content influenced use satisfaction to a greater degree than social relations; and the diversity of content, social relations, and active participation all positively influenced continuous use intention. In other words, the more positively users appreciated the diversity of content, and the more strongly they had social relations, and the more actively they participated within communities, the greater degree to which they increased their continuous use intention for Netflix. However, the diversity of content and the convenience of use also had a negative effect on the media substitution intention for Netflix, which means that the more diverse the content and the more convenient the use of Netflix, the fewer the number of users who intended to cancel Netflix and subscribe to another OTT service or resubscribe to traditional media sources.

Internet shopping mall business has taken its place as a major form of e-commerce and is evolving constantly. At the same time, disputes of various kinds are also arising in proportion to the evolution. A typical example is when a consumer purchased a product from an internet shopping mall and the seller wants to cancel or withdraw the sales contract saying that he miswrote the price or other important information when posting the product on the internet. It's about the error on the seller's part. Civil Law Chapter 109, legal principles on errors, appears to assume the case of natural declaration of intention. It was observed that legal principles on errors defined by the Civil Law are also applied in internet shopping malls, where declaration of intention is made electronically. In transactions involving internet shopping malls, where the seller's indication and advertisement constitutes an inducement to offer, the seller may cancel a contract concluded by the consumer's offer and the seller's acceptance if the seller finds errors on his part, and adequacy of the cancellation should be judged depending on specific cases. That is, the judgment of the important ground that comprises prerequisites for cancellation and presence of negligence may depend on how much difference there is between the normal price and the posted price on a specific case. Also, considering the cases where negligence was not perceived on the seller's miswriting of the price, the seller may cancel the transaction in a similar situation.

In this paper, The Supreme Court of Korea 2016. 1. 28. 2015Da9769 was reviewed. In the previous case, Korean Supreme Court 2009Da17417 for the element to requirement for permission of the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments, the patient's consent for withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments was assumed a declaration of intention to terminate the contract. But the consent for withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments corresponds not to those. The consent for medical treatments is not the juristic acts but the real acts. If the presumptive intention about these withdrawal regards as the termination of medical contract, the contract must be up to the starting the civil proceedings. According to this case, although the partial cancellation of medical contract is admitted, on the other hand medical expenses obligation ist exempted only after the final decision. At the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments the medical obligation ist exempted because of the inability to providing the medical payment, which confirmed by the final decision about the withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments. Therefore the judgement of this case ist appropriate in that sense, the medical obligation ist waived only after the final decision. However that legal basis lies not at the partial cancel but at the partial inability.
