The number of international passengers at Gimhae International Airport, the fourth-largest airport in Korea, is gradually increasing. This raised the need for a new airport in southeastern region, and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport decided to build a new runway for Gimhae International Airport. In this study, to predict the noise generated by a new runway, the noise analysis using the aviation environmental design tool (AEDT) of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was performed. In this paper, when a new runway was built at the Gimhae International Airport, an area of noise damage that is increasing than the present was predicted using arrival and departure data of airlines in a day.

Conflicts in the construction of large public facilities carried out as national projects are crucial issues we have to deal with. There are growing concerns for and oppositions to large construction projects in terms of environmental deterioration and the dissolution of local communities. In the case of projects that promise the creation of jobs and investment, the competition and disputes are increasing and being intensified. Therefore, there is a considerable amount of study on the competitions and conflicts between regions. Previous studies have focused on the procedures of public policy, governance structure, the role of local media. Contrary to the previous studies, this study investigates the spatial ways of constructing conflicts. Based on the analysis of the project of "Southeastern New International Airport", there is a mismatch between the spatial boundary of cost/benefit and agents (regions) of disputes. The agents of conflicts also show the politics of multiple scales by constructing alliances and breaking the network in the process of the airport project. The findings suggest that the conflicts on regional development should be understood as the construction of dynamic regional politics on regional development rather than as the by-product in the practice of policies.

Social issues are important factors that decide government policy and newspapers are critical channels that reflect them. Analysing news articles can contribute to understanding social issues, but it is very difficult to analyse the unstructured large volumes of news data manually. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the different views among stakeholders of a specific social issue by using text analysis, word cloud analysis and associative analysis methods, which systematically transform unstructured news data into structured one. We analyzed a total of 115 news articles and a total of 6,772 comments, collected from the selected newspapers (Chosun-Il-bo, Joongang-Il-bo, Donga-Il-bo, Maeil Newspaper, Busan-Il-bo) for two weeks. We found that there are significant differences in tone between newspapers. While nation-wide daily newspapers focus on political relations with local areas, local daily newspapers tend to write articles to represent local governments' interests.
