Cyberbullying and digital drama are on the rise among students. Therefore, this paper proposes an educational program that can enhance students' ability to use artificial intelligence(AI) technology and develop the power to respond to digital drama. In order to understand the effect of the proposed education program, this education was applied on a trial basis to 205 middle school students residing in South Korea. Moreover, the change of coping ability to the digital drama was observed before and after education. After applying for the educational program, the students' empathy(t=-5.506, p<0.001), peer conflict resolution(t=-3.842, p<0.01), and peer mediation(t=-4.213, p<0.001) improved, and did not significantly affect their anger control ability(t=-0.272, p>0.05). The educational program proposed in this paper uses AI to make it more attractive for students familiar with digital devices to participate in education and increase their educational concentration. This paper has its limitations as it is a study only for middle school students in South Korea. However, it is significant that the educational program proposed in this paper prevented the recently increased digital drama and led to a crucial change in coping ability.

A drama, generally composed of dozens of times, is one of the most popular broadcasting program genres, and it has the characteristics that the status and interrelationships of characters are changing as time goes on and important acts affecting the story occur sporadically. Therefore, when viewers missed some times in the middle of a drama, it is difficult to understand the drama without the changed information on the characters and notable actions. This paper proposes a data service which provides the updated information of the characters and important acts based on the drama scene. The data service has the characteristics that it provides the information on the characters shown in the current drama scene, and the information about the people mentioned in the dialogue in the scene. This paper includes a general introduction to the data services, the formal definition of the drama scene identification and character information, and an DVB-SI-based method for transmitting the information to the data service.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of actor awareness on advertising effect, and to find out whether there is a moderation effect between actor awareness and perceived fit of PPL brand and drama. For this purpose, this research conducted an experimental study through the treatments. A total of 452 participants attended to the experimental study and responded to the questionnaire. As a result, the awareness of the actor did not affect the ad attitude, but it influenced the brand attitude significantly. The perceived fit between PPL brand and drama influenced both the ad attitude and brand attitude significantly. The interaction of actor awareness and perceived fit was significant in ad attitude but not in brand attitude. In addition, purchase intention increased as the attitude toward ad and brand was positive. The purpose of this study is to contribute to establishing a PPL profit strategy for web dramas by examining the relationship between actor awareness and advertising effects, and the moderating effect of perceived fit between PPL brand and drama.

Digital therapy has emerged as a novel treatment modality, propelled by advancements in information and communication technology. In the last five years, there has been a substantial surge in research publications addressing digital therapeutics (DTx) interventions, signaling a sustained upward trajectory in this field. The dynamic nature of computer science, marked by continuous innovation and development, underscores the need for agile adaptation to rapid changes. Consequently, computer science education is compelled to offer students insights into the latest trends. This research endeavors to contribute to the evolving landscape by developing textbooks that impart knowledge about DTx, an integration of information technology. The study focuses on the application of these textbooks to elementary and middle school students in South Korea. The instructional materials have been carefully organized to enable students to learn about the principle of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) DTx at the elementary level and the DTx that can prevent and address the digital drama at the middle school level. Based on the application of the textbook, students who received instruction using the textbook showed statistically significant improvements in all subcategories of creative problem-solving ability, including idea modification, visualization, task focus, analogy, idea generation, and elaboration (p<.01). Additionally, there were statistically significant changes in students' self-efficacy before and after using the textbook, with negative efficacy decreasing, and positive efficacy and social efficacy increasing (p<.001).

According to the material about the analysis of digital consumers' lifestyle in Korea published at the end of 2016, 100% had experienced a smartphone before, and 91% had joined in digital communications. Among digital contents, 85.5% had experienced music, and 78.6% had used TV contents before. Also, SNS utility rate equaled 83.3%, and the Facebook utility rate of those in the 10's and 20's exceeded 80%. It means that it is necessary to conduct research on SNS utility in broadcasts. Based on the results of operating KBS Facebook accounts, this paper aims to compare the reaches of entertainment, drama, and culture genres and analyze correlation between the reaches and 'like' friends on Facebook and also correlation between the reaches and ratings.To address the goal, among the Facebook mentions operated within a year, 2016, this researcher analyzed 2,526 mentions to publicize entertainment, drama, and culture genres and the results of 834 million reaches and also used the data of original broadcasts' ratings. To analyze the data, this study employed SPSS Ver. 18.0 to perform the independent sample t-test and Pearson's correlation analysis. The conference interval is set as 95%, and p<0.05 is regarded to be statistically significant. According to the results, more reaches are found in entertainment, drama, and culture genres in order, and it is found to have strongly positive correlation with the frequency of 'like's. The reaches and ratings have no correlation, and there is no statistical significance found in it. It is expected that the results of this study can be applied to publicize programs efficiently for broadcasting.
