Seomin has been used frequently in mass media and political discussion. However, who is Seomin, how to define Seomin, and whether Seomin and middle class are different has been rarely discussed. This study conducted both national level of survey and in-depth interviews and explored how to define Seomin and who respondents think as Seomin. The majority of respondents consider themselves as Seomin and that monthly income is the most important criteria to define Seomin. Seomin was considered as those who have high school education and 200~300(million won) monthly income, live in a rented house, and work as a small-scale self-employer, skilled laborer, and low level of white collar workers. Also, Seomin is a precarious group which can achieve upward or downward mobility and is located between low and middle class. Those who have Seomin identity tend to have pride in their social status and hope for upward mobility rather than depreciate their social status or envy the middle class. In order for Seomin to be able to achieve upward mobility and to maintain pride in current status, diverse social policies are needed. Further analyses on examining characteristics and policy needs of Seomin are needed.

Tactical networks are evolving into an All-IP based network for network centric warfare(NCW). Owing to the flexibility of IP based network, various military data applications including real-time and multi-media services are being integrated in tactical networks. Because each application has diverse Quality-of-service(QoS) requirements, it is crucial to develop a QoS provisioning method for guaranteeing QoS requirements efficiently. Conventionally, differentiated services(DiffServ) have been used to provide a different level of QoS for traffic flows. However, DiffServ is not designed to guarantee a specific requirement of QoS such as delay, loss, and bandwidth. Therefore, it is not suitable for military applications with a tight bound of QoS requirements. In this paper, we propose a multi-layer network virtualization scheme that allocates traffic flows having different QoS requirements to multiple virtual networks, which are constructed to support different QoS policies such as virtual network functions(VNFs), routing, queueing/active queue management(AQM), and physical layer policy. The experiment results indicate that the proposed scheme achieves lower delays and losses through multiple virtual networks having differentiated QoS policies in comparison with conventional networks.

To celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of korean comics, the various and meaningful programs are organized.

This study employs model of susceptibility to imported media to examine Korean drama exposure, evaluation and viewing intention among viewers living in foreign cultural background. Analyzing data collected from 176 female viewers in the U.S., it founds knowledge about Korea and general drama exposure give direct effect on the future viewing intention. Korean drama exposure directly affects drama evaluation and viewing intention. Korean network, however, has no significant effect on the dependent variables. Result of the present study shows that cultural capital of foreign viewers has effects on Korean drama consumption. Another result that behavior of general drama consumption has contributed to Korean drama consumption gives meaningful implication for the policy of Korean television export.

The OTT service in Korea is not as popular as that in the U. S. This study argues that one of the major reasons of poor performance of OTT in Korea is that the OTT service providers did not acquire attracting contents, thus failing to appeal to Korean users. The other reason is Korean users are not willing to use OTT services because of high telecommunications fees to use OTT services. That is why most OTT users are using OTT services in WiFi zones, such as house, workplace, or school. This study investigated the popular OTT contents in recent three years, and how these popular OTT contents are provided in OTT service platforms, and how these contents are used in different places. The results of this study may provide several implications for OTT service providers' strategies in the future, and propose policy implications for the development of OTT services in Korea.

As the ubiquitous paradigm that allows users to access the Internet anytime and anywhere is expanding, the expectation and interest of the Internet is increasing. As interest in the Internet has increased, interest in open source hardware has also increased. As a result, the maker, who is a creator who actually uses the digital production tools to create a product that he thought, is emerging as a new trend. As these makers shared how to make products, the 'maker movement', an open source manufacturing movement, spread. In the case of the domestic market, the government's policy support is also stimulating the maker movement. However, compared to developed countries, there is not enough awareness and environment of maker culture, and only open platform hardware and software are used without special education / development equipment or kit for maker.

This study aimed to investigate recognition of dental scaling and recognition of and satisfaction with health insurance coverage of dental scaling and make an efficient healthcare policy for dental health insurance; to do this, a survey was conducted in 389 residents in North Jeolla Province, drawing the following conclusion: First, the respondents were most likely to suggest that it was desirable to get dental scaling 'twice a year' and to start it 'in their twenties'. Second, those who were female and who were more concerned about periodontal health were more likely to recognize coverage of dental scaling. Third, those who were female and who were more concerned about periodontal health were also more satisfied with the coverage. It is therefore necessary to make PRs by using teaching media positively as well as by giving correct information with the objective of improving recognition of dental scaling on a continuous basis.

The right to be forgotten is a world-wide issue after the decision of the European Court of Justice which accepted that right. This essay discusses about the guide lines for protecting the right to delete, a category of the right to be forgotten. I classified those guide lines as follows : (1) sensitiveness of the personal information, (2) offensiveness to reasonable and ordinary people, (3) intention of writing the article, (4) value of historical record, (5) importance of privacy comparing with right to know with time flow, (6) public figure, (7) article based on fact or opinion. To effectively protect right to be forgotten and delete, we have to consider Privacy Impact Assessment, using blind system, unification of multiple institutions, and reforming press arbitration system.

The film has far-reaching power than any other media. For this reason, a censorship has existed in some way but censorship is like a double-edged sword. If KMRB stood in front of a desire to preserve the morals of society and youth protection, creativity of artists must be shaken. On the contrary if free will is emphasized, social chaos will be increase. Thus most countries made various censorship systems in order to overcome this contradiction. In recent years, mainly on the issue of censorship and the rating is a tendency to transfer to the voluntary deliberation agency. However, this issue is still dealing with this problem at KMRB in Korea. Then KMRB mistakes itself as the guardian of situation ethics and morality. Recently various problems appeared in the film rating system. KMRB should be devolved on the voluntary deliberation agency in order to solve the problem. therefore this study The study will be to review the need for voluntary veliberation agency.

To ensure excellence in logical software education for smart IT technologies in schools, the study was conducted to determine whether a course on mobile application (app) content creation using an app authoring tool can be introduced as a part of the regular curriculum. As an approach method, five sessions of related training for characterized high school teachers as well as three sessions for elementary, middle and general high school teachers nationwide and a satisfaction survey were conducted for a total of five surveys. The average of 91.4% for more than moderately satisfied' is judged to reflect the perception of a highly successful study. In conclusion, the introduction of an app development education program using an authoring tool in schools is considered essential, and furthermore, the need for establishing new national technical qualifications is still rising.
