In the midst of the rapid changes in the digital media environment, this study try to examine the challenges of the public service broadcasting(PSB) news as a representative public sphere in a democratic society, and sought realistic alternatives through a case study of the BBC, one of the most successful digital policies of PSB in the world. The study found that the BBC's 'Digital First' strategy pursued a fundamental change in news formats, thereby simultaneously innovating on content. It was also interesting to see that the news consumers' needs for social media and video content were selectively analyzed and approached with a strategy of choice and focus. Finally, the production of customized digital content by analyzing news viewing behavior by each age group also suggests a lot to Korean PSB. I hope that the cases of this study will be reflected in the digital policies of Korean PSB.

Disasters are now becoming commonplace and especially the vulnerable group such as the disabled, the elderly, children and foreigners are in a state of overlapping disasters. In this situation, ATSC 3.0-based UHDTV disaster information service for the visually and hearing impaired has been developing. This study focuses on the demand data collected through in-depth interview with the impaired. The demand analysis data is very important to development process of technology. The results of the interview show that it is essential to link the UHDTV disaster signals with home-network, IoT, wearable devices, and various assistive devices for the impaired (hearing aid, smart light bulbs, warning light, etc.). In outdoor space, UHDTV disaster information must be connected to public display media, digital signage, kiosk, screens in bus or taxi. If communication aids for the visually and hearing impaired are equipped with a function that can transmit and receive disaster information, it will help to minimize disaster damage.

The purpose of the study was to analyze agricultural and rural news in mass media reporting. This study analyzed the representation of agricultural and rural news of Korean Broadcasting System (KBS), established in 1947 as a public service broadcaster and the Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS), established in 1990 as a private service broadcaster in Korea. There has been criticisms of isolated and anecdotal reporting of agricultural and rural issues, thus, leading to negative public perception mainly influenced by mass media even though there has been increases in the publicity activities regards agricultural policies in the KBS and SBS broadcasting news. This study was designed to reveal the merits of the preceding criticisms. For this purpose, a total of 437 news items issued between September 2004 and August 2005 were analyzed via content and framing analysis research methodologies. The major findings and conclusions of the study were as follows: 1. Content analysis of agricultural and rural news revealed that the lack of relative quantity and 'in-depth analysis' in agricultural reporting and the thematic concentration on negative news and flash events were the most prominent characteristics of Korean broadcasting news. 2. The quantity of agricultural news was relatively insufficient and qualitatively superficial and stereotyped lacking in comprehensive understanding of agricultural and rural issues and inclined toward flash events and crisis-oriented. Based on the findings and conclusions, following recommendations are offered; 1) Agricultural institutions should consider changing the images of rural society and farmers implementing agricultural and rural policies in the future, and perception of the general public should be considered in reporting agricultural and rural news. 2) Further research should be conducted to provide practical implications for the broadcast media on the agricultural information system.

Due to the development of network and device, it is called mobile age that boosts various distribution routes of multi-media content and it constructs a new digital content consumption trend. N-screen is one of the new-introduced examples in the digital age and broadcasting industry believes it as a crisis and challenge as well. It becomes a ubiquitous multi-media environment that people watch multi-media content everywhere and any time they want to and competition happens beyond the boundaries such as network industry, terminal industry, pay TV market, traditional terrestrial TV, etc. And then how should the broadcasting service prepare for the N-screen business? The present research proposes a few terrestial broadcasting content strategies in the multi platform environment. First, instead of N-screen, it proposes multi platform, especially One Source Multi Platform(OSMP). Second, so-called 'Integrated Terrestrial Broadcasting OSMP Alliance(IBPA)' must be founded. Third, IBPA should support multi-tasking UX for viewers to have rich experience. Last, it becomes more important and necessary to support local terrestrial broadcasting service for public service in the multi platform age.
