전세계적으로 북극과 남극을 포함한 극지에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있 다. 북극과 남극은 비단 항로의 이용을 통한 경제적 효과 뿐만 아니라 생물다양성, 환경보호, 군사 지리적 이점, 과학 연구 등 다양한 분야에서 그 가치가 높아지고 있다. 이러한 가운데 국제사회는 다양한 협약과 조 약을 통해서 극지역에 대한 활동을 규정 및 규제하고 있으며, 각 국가들 도 자국의 이익을 위해 극지활동에 관한 법률을 개별적으로 제정하여 법 적 기반을 마련하고 있다. 한국은 지난해 10월 발효된 극지활동진흥법의 제정을 통해 해당지역에 대한 활동의 법적 기반을 만들어 적극적인 활동 을 추진하고자 하고 있다. 본 논문은 극지 관련 국제 조약 및 규정들을 살펴보고, 이를 기반으로 한국의 극지활동진흥법을 분석 및 평가하고자 한다.

Purpose - The Millennial Generation, which grew in the wake of the spread of the Internet and rapid changes in the media environment, is rapidly moving from the traditional broadcasting environment to the Internet-broadcasting environment in terms of content acceptance. With the emergence of UGC (User-generated content), the change in the status of single-person content creators enables the growth of multi-channel networks (MCN), a new content-distribution platform and an agency concept for single creators. Youtube-based MCN produces multiple single star producers and casts and provides its own video series through Youtube. It is also emerging as a major M&A target for global media providers in terms of providing content to a wide range of consumers with the same interests and consumption characteristics. In addition, for the Millennials generation, which are part of their lives, MCN is becoming the most suitable media for TGIF (Twitter, Google, i-phone, Facebook). Accordingly, this study defines newly emerging MCNs and analyzes the factors for accepting MCN-produced content based on the push-pull-mooring (PPM) model. Research design, data, and methodology - An empirical analysis is performed through a questionnaire survey. For this purpose, 204 people who have experience of watching MCN were studied. Collected data is processed through analysis of a structural equation model using R to test the hypothesis. Results - For the MCN service to become an alternative to existing media, it is necessary to continuously promote cultural diversity and diversity of attempts that conventional media cannot provide. It is the attractiveness of the alternative that has the greatest influence on the intention to switch to a MCN service. When we look at MCN content so far, certain patterns such as game progress, introduction, food, and chat rooms have already appeared. We need to overcome this and develop a completely new conceptual content that we have never seen before. This requires a more generous viewer perception of the topics covered. For diversity, linguistic and verbal violence should be tolerant in common sense to provide a foundation for securing cultural diversity. Conclusions - In this study, we tried to develop a comprehensive approach to the substitution effect of MCN. In terms of academic achievement, the PPM model is used to enhance the utilization of media and broadcasting. Practical implications are to provide an analytical framework for verifying alternative or complementary effects when viewers switch to MCN.
