This study analyzed the contents of letters-to-the-editor and the characteristics of the letters' writers, featured in three major newspapers, Chosun Ilbo, Dong-a Ilbo and Hankyoreh, in Korea from 1997 to 2009. Additionally, based on whether the letters contained the feedback function or not, it scrutinized the attributes of the letters-to-the-editor. The results indicated that the role of letters-to-the-editor has changed from a space for showing merely personal dissatisfactions or complaints into a space for expressing the reader's opinions about various issues. The study also showed that the proportion of writers who have specialized jobs and are members of civic groups steadily increased. It seems to tell that the quality of the letters was improved accordingly, because they could give in-depth opinions about the matters in which the society were interested. The feedback function of the letters was also gradually more activated for those years, and it could be thought as another evidence supporting the quality improvement of the letters, which were supposed to form the healthful public opinion. However, the writers' residential districts are heavily concentrated on the region surrounding Seoul, the capital of Korea. The study suggested that the newspapers should develop tools to overcome such defects.

In 2009, Korea Communications Commission(KCC) added a new clause which regulates the protection of the media diversity to the Broadcasting Act. Specifically, the provision, Article 35-4, contains the creation of the Media Diversity Committee which is responsible for (1) the measure of TV audience share by media company; and (2) the development of summing up index of the different media influence by the end of 2012. Although the Korean version of diversity index as German KEK was made after a careful consideration based on the necessity to devise a criterion to determine the appropriate level of ownership regulation for the media companies, several issues including the measurement method have been raising the consistent controversy among experts. This study focuses on the evaluation of the media diversity policy by indicating the problems of the devised index and showing the concrete issues of the contention. As the result of the policy delphi-analysis targeted 10 media experts, this study suggest that the Article 35-4 of Broadcasting Act needs to be amend into the realistic and rational directions in well with the tenets of the law.

SO and Satellite Broadcaster can operate SO Operating channel in Korea. However, the Broadcasting act does not specify the direction of what purpose the SO operating channel would be operated for. Accordingly, SO and Satellite Broadcaster do not operate SO operating channel or use it as profit channel when operating. In this respect, the cases of U.S. and Japan have been studied to determine how SO operating channel should be operated to make it desirable. In the U.S., it is being used in various ways such as profit channel, multi-access channel and access channel. In Japan, it is mainly focused on the role as local channel, being coordinated with local governments to form public opinion on local news and issues or to announce local events. In Korea, SO is operating local channel similar to the one in Japan rather than SO operating channel, while Satellite Broadcasting is operating SO operating channel mainly for its profits. As SO operating channel is operated on the basis of the broadcasters' expediency without clear stipulation in Korea, we will need to seek the plan to use it for public interests by discussing more the status and operation of SO operating channel.
