Nuclear energy in Korea began in 1958, when the Korea's atomic energy act was formulated and the relevant organizations were founded. Since then, notwithstanding the two catastrophe like TMI and Chernobyl accident, Korea made a wise decision to expand the peaceful uses of the nuclear energy as well as to localize the essential nuclear design technology of fuel and nuclear steam supply system. This decision resulted in the success of export of nuclear power plants as well as research reactor in 2010s. The Korea's nuclear policy, which well utilized 'international crisis in nuclear business' as 'opportunity of Korea to get. nuclear technology', is believed nice policy as a role model of nuclear new-comer countries. Based upon the success story of localization of nuclear technology, Korea had an eye for a niche market, which was a basis of development of SMART, Korea-made integral PWR. The operation of a SMART plant can sufficiently provide not only electricity but also fresh water for 100,000 residents. Last two years, Korea's nuclear industry team led by the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute completed the standard design of SMART and applied to the Korea's regulatory body for standard design approval. Now the Korea's licensing authority is reviewing the design with the relevant documents, and the design team is doing its best to realize its hope to get the approval by the end of this year. From next year, the SMART business including construction and export will be explored by the KEPCO consortium.

소셜네트워킹서비스와 쇼핑몰을 결합하면 오프라인 거래에서처럼 단골 관계를 형성할 수 있다. 한번이라도 물품을 구매한 고객은 SNS의 팔로우(Follow) 기능을 이용하여 자동으로 단골고객으로 등록하여, 구매자와 생산자와의 관계가 일회성에 그치지 않고 향후에도 지속될 수 있게 하여 잠재고객이 되고, 장기적으로 재구매가 이루어지게 한다. 단골이 된 고객에게 생산자는 신상품 출하 시 객관적인 물품정보 외에 재배하는 동안의 농장 모습이나 농작물의 성장과정 등 생생한 근황과, 파종에서 수확까지의 숨겨진 이야기를 통해 자신이 농사지으며 전원생활을 하는듯한 감성을 자극한다. 소비자는 자신의 SNS 홈에서 기존의 단골 관계인 생산자의 파종, 농사, 수확, 신상품 등의 소식을 타임라인에서 확인하여 필요한 상품을 원클릭(one click)으로 구매할 수 있다. 생산자는 소비자에게 뉴스 및 할인 등의 정보를 제공하여 단골로 만드는 고객 관리가 가능하고, 저장법이나 요리법 등의 다양한 사용법을 안내하며 새로운 물품을 추천하거나 홍보를 할 수 있다. 이러한 장점은 기존의 전자상거래에서 상품의 판매와 홍보가 분리되어 링크를 통해 외부로 연결되어야 하는 문제에서 벗어나 판매와 홍보가 하나의 계정 안에서 수행하도록 하여 사이트 접근성을 높여준다. 이처럼 SNS의 인맥 마케팅 기능에 더하여 시스템은 생산자의 판매 물품을 자동 분류한 카테고리로 소비자의 SNS 홈 페이지에 쇼핑물의 기능을 제공하여 소비자가 원하는 상품을 검색하고 구매할 수 있으며 구매는 자동으로 소비자와 생산자를 단골관계로 연결해준다. 또한 구매자 간에도 구매한 상품에 대한 구매경험을 공유하고, 상품추천, 구매후기 작성 및 기존 구매후기의 재배포가 용이하다. 이처럼 서로 알지 못하던 구매자 사이의 소통도 가능하게 하여, 상품을 추천하고 소식을 확산시키는 것이 'SNS 몰'의 가장 큰 특징이다.

사회적 혼란을 야기하는 이벤트는 발생 직후 어떻게 대응하느냐에 따라 소요되는 비용의 편차가 크다. 이에 따라 비정상적인 이벤트를 탐지하고 의미를 파악하는 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 또한 예측 분석에 관한 연구도 많이 수행되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 연구는 이벤트의 전체적인 미래 경향에 대한 수치 결과를 예측할 뿐, 이벤트가 내포하는 의미에 대한 예측 연구는 미비하다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 비정상적인 이벤트가 내포하는 토픽의 조합을 통해 미래에 어떠한 일이 발생할 수 있는지에 대한 시각적 예측 분석 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 먼저 트윗에서 실시간으로 비정상 이벤트를 탐지한다. 그 다음 과거 유사한 사례를 탐색한 다음 이벤트와 관련된 토픽들을 추출한다. 마지막으로 사용자는 의미 있는 토픽의 조합을 통해 미래에 어떠한 일이 발생할 수 있을지 분석할 수 있다. 실험은 두 가지 상황에 대한 예측 분석을 수행하였으며, 실험 결과 본 논문에서 제안한 방법의 타당성을 입증하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 역사적으로 한국언론에 나타난 교육위기담론의 의미구성방식과 주체 구성방식을 분석함으로써 한국사회의 진보-보수 언론이 갖는 대립적 입장과 이데올로기적 특성들을 드러내는 데 있다. 이를 위해 미셀 페쇠의 담론이론에서 제시된 언어체계의 선택과 조합방식들-선구성과 절합 메커니즘-, 그리고 이데올로기의 주체구성 방식을 이론적으로 검토한 후, 실제 사례분석에 들어가고자 한다. 사례분석의 대상은 조선일보와 한겨레신문이고, 두 신문의 진보와 보수라는 상징적 적대성을 근거로 선정했다. 이와 함께 "교실붕괴"나 "학교붕괴" 등의 교육위기 담론을 현장진술, 원인과 책임규명 그리고 사후대책의 범주 속에서 분석하고자 한다.

This study analyzed the punk style shown in the movie Sid and Nancy (1986), based on a true story. The purpose of this study was to prove that the styles of the main characters had some discriminatory mode as an anti-fashion with not only the value system of the subculture but also the diverse cultural codes applied, revealing their identity. The scope of this study covered the 1970s when Sid died while a member of the Sex Pistols, but was limited to the analysis of Sid and Nancy's costumes. As theoretical background, this study reviewed the preceding studies, specialty books, movie-related sites and their postings, and on-line news reports. To analyze the movie costumes, relevant scenes on the DVD were captured, and thereby, the scenes were categorized per character and style but a performance scene was categorized Sid and Nancy as same punky wedding style because of intention spirituality to marriage by director, and thereupon, 17-cut images were used for the analysis of main characters' styles. Sid's style consisted primarily of black leather jackets, symbolic T-shirts, and jeans, whereas Nancy's style implied a punk style with added fetish styles. Even in the same punk style, their identities were symbolized through bricolage. Through this, subculture styles, were able to confirm that in addition to the value system of subculture, discriminatory modes as anti-fashion with various cultural codes played a role in revealing their identity.

본 연구는 글로벌 콘텐츠에 나타난 AI 윤리의 문제적 상황을 진단하고, 인간의 정체성을 강화하기 위한 담론이 무엇인지를 파악하고자 했다. 연구 진행을 위해 넷플릭스(Netflix) 오리지널 콘텐츠 <소셜딜레마>(The Social Dilemma)를 분석대상으로 선정했다. 연구방법은 서사분석을 채택했다. 분석결과 <소셜딜레마>는 전통적인 시사 다큐멘터리 구조를 보였으며, 이야기 전개를 위해 주로 전문가와 통계자료를 활용한 것으로 확인되었다. 미얀마 학살 사건, 가짜뉴스 전파 등 국내외 사례를 열거하며 콘텐츠 핵심 주장을 강화하기도 했다. 인물의 관계에서는 개발자와 미디어 기업, 이용자와 광고주 사이의 이항대립이 명확하게 드러났다. 해결책으로는 기업에 대한 강력한 규제와 소셜미디어의 이용 중단을 주장했다. 하지만, <소셜딜레마>는 AI 기술의 오남용을 지적하는 수준에 머무르며, 인간 고유의 정체성과 사회적 관계를 외면하는 서사를 구성했다. 이러한 결과는 AI 시대를 맞아 인간의 사회성과 관계성, 학습 능력의 중요성을 강조하는 콘텐츠의 필요성을 제기한다.

Purpose - Media is a significant distributional channel in sport. In terms of determining the influencer in building sport media contents, recent sport media studies have employed agenda-setting theory, assuming media itself as the agenda provider. In a real-world situation, however, sports stars have been deemed key factor determining distribution contents in sport. The starting point of this study is the "tacit premise" of agenda-setting theory. Given the agenda-setting theory, the current study attempted to explore the function of sport stars as an agenda provider, which is a key determinant of sport distribution. Research design, data, and methodology - This study has reviewed articles of Yuna Kim, Sang-hwa Lee, and Hyun-jin Ryu from daily newspapers including as dong-a ilbo and joongang ilbo (2013 to 2017). The study collected data, portable document format (PDF), from the online archive of dong-a ilbo and joongang ilbo. We coded the length of the article, the frequency, the size of the picture, and the structural form of the article. Inter-coder reliability was compared with data previously investigated by the researcher. Inter-coder reliabilities for study 1 and 2 was .89 and .85. To examine hypotheses, descriptive analysis, correlations, and cross-tap analysis were performed. Results - The results partially supported the hypotheses proposing the significant role of sports stars as the agenda setters in distributing sport media contents. In specific, the study found that the number of articles about sports stars prevailed the number of articles about regular athletes. Besides, studies found that the use of photos was more frequent in articles of sports starts than that of regular athletes. In sports newspaper articles, featured story articles were used more than straight-articles for news relating to sports stars. Also, sports newspaper of sports stars contained more information associated within an event rather than outside of an event. Conclusions - In sports journalism, this study challenges the current theory that the media affects the composition and the content of sports coverages. As the principle of the agenda-setting of sports media, the influence of sports stars must be continuously studied along with a follow-up study.
