과연 콘크리트 구조물에 있어서 누수 균열은 문제가 되는 것일까？ 이에 대해 설계, 구조 시공, 재료(콘크리트), 방수, 품질 및 안전의 관련 전문가는 여러 가지 이견을 말하고 있다. 또한 콘크리트 구조물에 관계하는 발주자, 건축주, 사용자, 시공자의 입장도 상황에 따라 다르게 해석하고, 평가하고 있다. 예를 들면 일반적으로 발주자(건축주 등)는 시공자에게 누수 균열은 하자이므로 무조건 보수할 것을 요구하는 반면 사용자(언론 포함)가 문제를 제기할 때(공공공사의 경우) 발주자는 이에 대해 크게 문제되지 않는다고 답변하는 경우도 많다. 어떤 기술자는 콘크리트의 누수 균열은 피할 수 없는 사항이므로 근본적으로 해결할 수 없으므로 완벽한 시공 및 보수는 어렵고, 다만 전체적인 누수량이 어느 정도 이하가 되도록만 관리할 뿐이라고 말하고, 또한 지하 구조물의 누수 균열은 피할 수 없어, 누수를 시각적으로 가리기 위한 보호벽을 쌓아 관리하는 것이 당연하다고 말하는 기술자도 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 일반 사용자들은 무조건 누수균열이 없어야 한다고 의견을 제시하고 있다. 특히 언론에 구조물 누수의 문제가 수시로 보도되어 관계자 및 관련 건설기술자들의 자존심이 크게 훼손되고, 이를 보수하기 위한 비용이 엄청나게 지출되고 있음을 볼 때 적당히 간과해서는 안될 문제임에는 틀림없다.(중략)

The public mostly get the information regarding real estate policy not from the press release of the government but from news articles. This type of information, though, might be delivered in a different frame depending on inclination of media or press. The media runs the articles within its own frame, so that it often conveys either expectation or concern depending on its inclination. This study analyzed the articles regarding 'Agreement to revise three major real estate regulations to perk up property market' and examined how the real estate policy imprinted in them depending on the disposition of the press. The results showed that the conservative press ran articles within a positive frame expressing favorable expectation. On the other hand, progressive press mostly kept neutral or unfavorable tone on the same regulations within the negative frame.

Fake news is flooded with fake news that mixes untrue falsehoods in whole or in part. In order to create a frame for political and social purposes, news is mainly created by combining facts with fakes, or news is created for the purpose of incitement to encourage distortion and hatred. In particular, some media, including over-the-air broadcasting, are expressing their political bias in a specific direction without hesitation. Even if the press has political bias, if it is based on the delivery of facts, a trusted media environment can be achieved under the mutual checks of conservatives and progressives. The May 18 Democratic Uprising is a painful history and fact of modern history, leaving remuneration and progress. Nevertheless, there is still a view that the May 18 Democratic Uprising is regarded as 'democracy movement' and 'violence'. This study analyzed how the conservative JoongAng Ilbo and the progressive Kyunghyang Shinmun Manpyeong deal with the May 18 Democratic Uprising. The Manpyeong of the two newspapers differs greatly from the viewpoint of the May 18 Democratic Uprising. The liberal tendency of the Kyunghyang Shinmun Manpyeong has great significance in that it reveals the essence of the event and satirizes the subject. On the other hand, the conservative JoongAng Ilbo Manpyeong cannot approach the nature of the case or the object of satire due to ambiguity.

This paper argues that media criticism should be reestablished as an academic movement leading to the maintenance and maturity of democracy. Korean democracy has been withdrawn both procedurally and practically. However, the Korean media do not properly monitor democratic retreat. The purpose of journalism is to provide people with the information they need to be free and self-governed, and the public sphere is a condition of deliberative democracy. This paper proposed three practical strategies for media criticism. First, it is the overcoming of the conservative-progressive frame. It is important to look at what kind of media is responsible for democratic retreat. Second, media criticism should be expanded on workers and capitalists. Korea's labor relations are as distorted as the public sphere. Korean journalism did not set agenda for labor relations. Most reports were 'capitalist bias'. Finally, Media criticism should be the empowerment of the people who are the sovereigns of the media.
