Since the development of gene scissors 'CRISPR in 2012, CRISPR has been called the hope to lead the future of science and cure genetic diseases. But many indiscriminate experiments and destructions on human embryos have been made. For these reasons, ethical controversies and concerns have been amplified. At present, We have to make the law and the system step by step after reviewing and discussing the level of technology and social impact thoroughly. On the premise of this situation, in this study, I reviewed the patent dispute, interpretation of bioethics law, and the legislative theory. CRISPR could not have made the off-target effect zero. also, we just know only a few genes whose function is known in DNA networks. Therefore, it should be acknowledged that there are limits obviously to technical safety and knowledge of DNA . No means of gene editing on human embryo should be allowed. In order to carry out gene therapy on somatic cell , Diseases , dugs and treatment methods hat can be allowed by the law should be specified concretely in the positive form inEnforcement Decree of the Bioethics and Safety Act.
