The purpose of this study is to identify the conflict frames in the process of designating the national geopark, among local residents, geology experts, and local public officials. For this purpose, the progress of the public hearing on the implementation of the national geopark in Buan and Gochang were recorded with prior consent from the participants and transferred in text form. Subsequently, we developed a reference frames for analyzing conflict frames through literature review, and analyzed the conflict frames by three researchers based on this. These analyzed conflict frames were again analyzed by using semantic network analysis. The results are as follows. In the Buan area, 'Sagree' frame, 'Snot' frame, and 'Sdisagree' frame showed high eigenvector centrality, and 'Gharm' frame and 'Cmeconomy' frame were closely connected to the 'Snot' frame located at the center of the semantic network. In the Gochang area, 'Aresource' frame, 'Cmexample' frame, and 'Gharm' frame showed high eigenvector centrality, and 'Gharm' frame and 'Cmproblemsolution' frame were closely connected to the 'Snot' frame located at the center of the semantic network. Through these results, we could see that there is still the conflict about the certification of national geopark between stakeholders in Buan, and that Gochang's stakeholders are proudly aware of their own resources. The Buan's stakeholders focused on economic gains in resolving conflicts, while Gochang's stakeholders focused on problem solving. This result of this study provides information in conflict from the national geopark in other regions.

This study attempted to characterize and compare wetland conflicts in Korea and United States, which caused serious social and environmental effects. First of all, such 3 different survey methods as open-ended questionnaires, Likert-type and ranking questionnaires were adopted for 5 selected study sites in Korea and 12 cases in the U.S. in order to understand and measure these effects. 53 subjects were contacted for open face-to-face interviews in the U.S. and 258 in Korea and overall 567 disputants were for other questionnaires. Analyses of survey results revealed that disputants involved in the wetland conflicts had developed different concept of conflict frames. The study also identified the reframing is the key for conflict resolution Based on these results, a idea of public mediator was suggested to resolve and mediate conflicts.

Documenting environmental conflicts will be a priority target for documenting localities, because those conflicts are critical events that make intensive 'place experiences' of local residents. This study is to design a narrative structure for documenting conflicts in the process of Transmission Towers Construction in Miryang. This study begins with analysing the characteristics of environmental conflicts, and draws a conflicts documentation model including basic rules, narrative structure and development process. Basic rules are set up as mixed documentation of memory and evidence, application of 'frame', and dynamic description. Based on the rules, this study suggests a dynamic and open narrative framework adopting the metadata model of ISO 23081. This model is applied to documenting Transmission Towers Construction Conflicts in Mi-ryang. The full narrative and 'frame' of the conflicts are set after analysing development and issues of the conflicts, stakeholder, and properties of each conflict problem. Records descriptions are related to the context(each event occurred in the conflicting conditions, mandates, and stakeholder) descriptions to make multiple narratives in digital environments. Event description contains elements for articulating the 'frame' of each party of the conflict. The merits of this model are; i) to accumulate the adequate context information systematically by adopting dynamic narrative model, and ii) to acquire the new items and connect them to related items easily and consistently through multi-entity description. This documentation model of environmental conflicts may support to shape the collective memory of community, and to achieve good governance by managing conflicts in the process of locating non-preferred facilities with due regard to values and perceptions of residents and communities.

This study examines how television news constructed an issue of social conflict between nationwide and local broadcasting. Especially, this study focused on new ariport of east-south region in Korea. To do this, this study conducted frame analysis on KBS, MBC, SBS main news including national and local ones, broadcasted from 1 January, 2011 to 15 April, 2011. In addition, frame analysis was divided into two aspects, formal and substance. As a result, the findings are as follow: First, in formal aspect both national and local broadcastings are dealing with episode style news frames, while subject style is just 7.5%. Second, in substance aspect, 6 categories are founded: site decision frame, competition and conflict frame, economic frame, rescission and response frame, government countermeasure and alternative frame, etc frame.

This study critically reviewed whether the South Korean press reported the issue of conflict between South Korea and Japan in a way consistent with their journalistic values. To this end, this study conducted frame analysis and textual analysis for the articles of three press(Chosun Ilbo, Hankyoreh and KBS) from the three major branches of conflict (Korea's Supreme Court's ruling on forced labor compensation in October 2018, the Japanese government's decision to regulate exports in July 2019 and the Korean government's decision to end GSOMIA in August 2019) to one week. There were many superficial reports of simply relaying conflicts around the occurrence and outcome of events, and there were few reports that analyzed the context in depth or suggested alternatives. And partisan reporting, which is cited as a key issue in the Korean journalism, has been strongly revealed in the midst of a conflict between Korea and Japan, a national emergency situation.

This study conducted a frame analysis of the news reports of Chonbuk bus strike broadcasted via local broadcasting companies of the Jeollabuk-do. The results showed that all Chonbuk local televisions gave more emphasis on 'episodic' frame by emphasizing demonstrations and struggles between capital and labor. In the case of content frames, news reports did not present the solution or an alternative of the strike, and the democratic process frame or the institutional improvement frame was not embossed. Therefore, local television news of Chonbuk bus strike was insufficient in reporting causes and backgrounds of the strike. Also, it displayed existing press routine in reporting the issue of social conflict such as a bus strike.

This study examines how national newspapers interpret, evaluate and report the Korean grand canal and rebuilding four major rivers through the news writings. For this research, ChosunIlbo, the Hankyoreh Shinmun and HankukIlbo are selected. A total of 961 news writings are analyzed by using the concept of news frame designed by Gamson(1993). As a result, the findings are as follows: First, the most frequently reported news frame for ChosunIlbo is economic consequence; the Hankyoreh for ecological environment, and HankukIlbo for authoritative political execution by the administrative. Second, the most frequently interviewed group through all of the papers is the administrative and the ruling Grand National Party, the main body of rebuilding the Korean grand canal. On the country, voices of environmental protection groups, non-profit civic organizations and the ordinary people are reported rarely. Third, the ratio of authoritative political execution by the administrative and economic consequence are very high. Finally, in terms of the framing activity by the interviewed groups in the newspapers, ChosunIlb reports 'Outcome' the most frequently, the Hankyoreh does 'Loss-gain' & 'Process' and HankukIlbo 'Process' & 'Substantive'. Thus it concluded that ChosunIlbo does not play a role as a social mediator for the social disputes. However, the Hankyoreh and HankukIlbo try to represent environmental and civic organizations fairly.

As social diversity is increased recently, conflict between government and non-government organizations is also being increased. This conflict disturbs social development and also social cost to solve the conflict is very high. Therefore, it is necessary to set up a mediation organization which can draw reasonable decision making while minimizing social conflict. In this study, we compares Samangeum reclamation project and Youngweol dam case to find out how their recognition framings are formed, confronted, or adjusted and also how the process affects their conflict.

This frame analysis attempts to shed light on the process by which the Korean press constructs crisis as social reality through a series of risk reporting on food safety. Based on the FSSI(Food Safety Sentiment Index) developed by KIHASA(Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs), 11 cases of food safety reports from 1989 to 2005 were collected from the Korean Integrated News Database System(KINDS) and analyzed to yield the following salient features: risk diffusion frame; attribution of responsibility frame; conflict frame. It was observed that the press exhibited a tendency to approach the food safety incidents from a bi-polarized perspective, amplifying dichotomy between the victim and the perpetrator rather than treating them as scientific, or environmental hazards that require precise and synthesized information for resolution. This occupational habit of attributing status to agents of news was also found to contribute towards construction of crisis as social reality.
