Korea actively endeavors to improve the national marine environmental laws and regulations. Along with the growing global concern on the importance of marine environment, the concern is also increasing nationwide in Korea. These institutional changes in Korea have implications in that it has started to internalize the Sustainable Development Principle and the Precautionary Principle in the form of 'law' and 'policy.' The enactment efforts for conservation and sustainable use of marine environment will continue as the legal demand of public for coastal erosion prevention and climate change mitigation increases. This calls for robust revision for more logical framework and coherence of marine environment laws and regulations as well as efficient implementation of policies.

This study aims to analyze families and the kinship concepts in Korean laws based on meanings, boundaries, and functions. Korean culture is in the process of changing from traditional familism to democratic individualism, yet this is not a simple transition. In recent times, many people have come to look at family life from both traditional and individual perspectives, so their family values are inconsistent with each other. Therefore, this creates many family conflicts. As a result of this problem, I have analyzed families and the kinship concepts in Korean laws based on meanings, boundaries, and functions. Because laws regulate and reflect our everyday life, it is meaningful to review these laws. The results are as follow: First, the meaning of family in Korean laws is to respect other family members, and democratic family relationships. Second, the family boundaries are very different depending on the laws. The core boundary is the nuclear family, but in addition to the nuclear family, the parents of the wife and husband, the family of origin and the kin living together are included in the family member regulations. Third, the functions of the family are caring, education, rules for the living place, child discipline, supporting each other, guardianship for the family members, succession of family assets, and legal accusation rights. Kinship plays an important role in determining child guardianship, permission of a minor to marry, and authority over legal incompetency. Therefore, there are some contradictions between individualism and patriarchy in Korean laws, and these can have an influence on the conflicts between family members in the everyday life.

Purpose: The Korean franchise market has undergone drastic growth in recent years. Followed by expansion of franchise business types, relevant legal matters have diversified. Compared to conventional economic laws that focused on resolving problems related to unfair transactions between franchisors and franchisees, more diverse labor laws have emerged recently due to governance and economic dependencies of franchise structure. However, it was found that the business environment of franchisees and working conditions of franchisee employees have not changed accordingly due to the unique structure of franchise business. Though franchisees are entrepreneurs independent from franchisors, they are still under franchising contract with the franchisors. For instance, employees of franchisees have been exposed to malpractices in regard to pay, time, and other working conditions. These malpractices may show the ineffectiveness of current labor laws. Labor management is an important issue for sustainability of franchise businesses. Negative publicity of franchises generated from violating relevant labor laws may have significant negative impact on overall image of franchised brands. However, franchisors should not hold franchisees fully responsible for legal violations in terms of labor management but strive to prevent relevant risks. Thus, the recent amendment in labor law related to increased minimum wage and reduced worktime have called for more attention to effectively implementing the law. Research design, data, and methodology: This study was conducted through a review of franchise-related laws and various institutions and policies. Results: It is further needed for all parties, including franchisors, franchisees, and franchisee employees, to take collaborative actions to improve working conditions of franchisees. Therefore, this study aims to propose appropriate and effective response plans toward recent changes in the Minimum Wage Act, while strengthening sustainability of franchisors, franchisees, and their employees. Conclusions: The proposal mainly contains plans regarding profit-related aids and profit sharing/cost reduction strategies for franchisees, as well as collective bargaining in the franchisor-franchisee relation. More detailed suggestions are included. Conclusions: This proposal may help franchisors and policymakers develop business plans and policies in improving business conditions of franchisees and working conditions of franchisee employees.

Nowadays, Under the current system of fisheries laws, fishery division and marine division are unified into one marine-fishery related law system indiscriminately. So they are not divided by nature. Moreover, terminology of fishery Law has been used by now in inappropriate conditions from Japanese 1951 fishery law systemct. Because fisheries administrative reorganization is also in parallel with the same logic as above, the reorganization of the legal system should be made. Finally, when the above mentioned problems is clearly defined and improvement is actually performed, more efficient management will be achieved through the beneficiary of more simple legal services. And so fisheries managers will be able to contribute to the development of the industries through more efficient management. While the existing framework of laws and regulations currently being enacted or established should be kept as much as possible, in order to ensure better control of fisheries resources and ensure sustainable development of related industries. Under various existing laws including the Fisheries Act, the Enforcement Regulations/enforcement rules, notice, instruction, established rule, the recognition of problems and improvements on the overall delegate legislative framework will be needed.
