In January, 2019, the Ministry of Science and ICT announced the third edition of Master Plans for Radio Wave Promotion, effective from 2019 to 2023. The focus of this plan is to implement market based radio wave policy and horizontal regulatory framework. Although it appears to be past due, such change in the radio wave policy is not only fair and structured, but also unprecedented and ground breaking in legality. In order to successfully implement market based radio wave policy and horizontal regulatory framework, we must implement identical radio wave license based on license with consideration and time-limited usage. Through this, efficient distribution of finite radio wave resource may come to reality. Furthermore, there must be an effort to include life style regulation on license into radio wave act in the future.

In this paper, we propose a policy orientation for human effects on EMF according to the increasing number of devices which use electromagnetic waves. In particular, we conducted the analysis of the concept of the precautionary principle in advanced foreign countries and case studies which are being applied to the criteria more strict than international standards of protection for vulnerable groups. Futhermore, we analyzed the regulations of the EMF safety zone on KynungGi-Do Regional Council which is not valid in terms of constitutional principles such as superior constitutional and rerservations law principles. In conclusion, we propose to amend or modify any law for vulnerable groups and to implement the EMF-related policy on based Radio Wave Act.

Countries around the world have already taken direct and indirect measures to warn of the harmful effects of mobile phone electromagnetic waves. On the other hand, in the Republic of Korea the installation of Wi-Fi has been expandedwithout restrictions by location, and there is a widespread atmosphere of protesting human rights violations even if young students cannot use mobile phones, ignoring problems caused by the use of mobile phones. Human brain cells are increasingly exposed to electromagnetic waves of mobile phones as the penetration rate of smartphones grows.In order to solve the long-lasting question of whether electromagnetic waves from mobile phones will harm the human body, many studies are being conducted in various countries around the world, andthe recently published findingshave warned of the potential for harm. The labeling of electromagnetic waves alone is not sufficient to raise awareness about the dangers of electromagnetic waves. It is necessary that the Republic of Korea organize and operate a national electromagnetic wave research center in line with its status as an IT powerhouse, along with the revision of the Radio Wave Act, which directly warns the public about the hazards of mobile phone electromagnetic waves and can directly impose obligations on the mobile phone industry.

This paper measured EMF strength of the duty measurement radio station(77 station) and the non-duty measurement radio station(41 station) of mobile communication base station in Jeonbuk region. As the result of measurement, it generally reveals that EMF is highly low level compare to the human protection guideline. And It is regarded as level that the national people who live close to the mobile communication base station don't have to worry about electromagnetic wave. This paper provides comparative analyses categorized by the duty measurement station and the non-duty measurement station. The results reveals that the average value and the maximum value of the non-duty measurement station preferably was higher than all the duty measurement station. It is thought that the EMF exposure strength of the national people is caused by approach of station antenna rather than antenna power. Consequently this paper suggests that standard of the antenna power(exceed 30 W), standard of antenna height(exceed 10 m) specified by Radio Regulation Act enforcement ordinance, legal basis for mobile communication base station have to be changed.
