ABSTRACT

In surveillance, CCTV is one of the most universal but also dangerous means in terms of human rights by expansion of its area and subject, elaboration of technology and generalization. From this view, this paper critically examines the procedure of reformation of 'Infant Care Act' in 2015. First, there was no framework act about CCTV so that no issue was raised with the dilemma between surveillance and human rights. Second, through the legislation procedure, there was not enough understanding and consideration on the controversial values on human rights in surveillance because of lack of coherence and speciality in Standing Commissioners Committee. Third, this legislation became a model which suggests that surveillance can be a easiest way to escape from social issues about security. Finally, by this legislation we will be faced with a brand new and grand system of surveillance without critical review and debate. In order to solve this problem with CCTV, first of all, 'Personal Information Protection Act' should be reformed as soon as possible. Then, it seems necessary to establish 'Image Date protection Act' for political legitimacy and valid and legal regulation of personal image date protection.
