In the current discourse landscape where the opinions of stakeholders on game self-regulation are opposed, this study was conducted for the purpose of finding improvements by examining the effects of media reports on self-regulatory policies or perceptions. From July 2018 to June 2020, all articles reported for about two years were selected and the final 325 data were used for the study. For detailed frame analysis, the first and second frames were derived inductively. In the results of the study, it was analyzed that the in-depth understanding of the topic of self-regulation, the use of objective data, and the diversity of information sources were insufficient throughout the report.
