ABSTRACT

The demand for security is increasing in our society. The security in Korea started to develop in the early of 1960’s when private security guards were in charge of guarding U.S. 8’s Army. In 1976, ‘Security Service Law’ was established on which the legal ground of the private security was based, and it is currently called ‘Security Law’. Security guards partly took charge of keeping public security according to ‘Security Law’. The demand for private security has been occurred by civilians who are willing to pay for their secured safety for which public agency should be responsible. Work of security is defined in the Second Article of ‘Security Law’, but its definition is abstractive, not specific. ‘Security Law’, as a part of Administrative Law, should be legislated in accordance with the general principle of Administration Law and legalism. However, the present ‘Security Law’ does not have general regulations on the category of security operations. Private security is purposed in making sure of civilians’ safety in their bodies and properties on their own expenses. Therefore, detailed security work should be regulated in the law so that civilians’ bodies and properties could be protected. In conclusion, this study analyzes the problem of the category of security operations and suggests their legislative solutions
