All posts related to the Seongnam City Competition, which were selected as the four major addiction prevention along with alcohol, drugs, and gambling, were deleted.

According to the game industry on the 17th, Seongnam City Poisoning Management Integrated Support Center deleted the publicity banner and notice related to the production contest of addiction prevention contents using artificial intelligence (AI). However, there is no additional notice, so the confusion is being created. Seongnam -si also does not guide you.

The contest, which costs 12 million won, produces addiction prevention contents such as AI -based videos, short foam, and CM songs, causing a wave of addiction prevention, including alcohol, drugs, gambling, and Internet games. The game industry fiercely protested when a contest was held in Seongnam -si, where major game companies in Korea were concentrated.

In addition, Kim Jung -tae, a vice chairman of the democratic party’s Game Special Commitee, said, “Shin Sang -jin, a doctor, Seongnam Mayor Shin Sang -jin, tried to force an AI competition reminiscent of the ‘four major addictions’ or ‘game addiction law’ that tried to include alcohol, drugs, gambling and games together.” I closed the pages and urged the promise to prevent recurrence.

Hwang hee -du, chairman of the game special committee, said, “The reason why the Seongnam -si addiction management integrated support center included ‘Internet games’ in the four major addictions. Why is the game in addition to alcohol, drugs, and gambling?” It is a reproduction of past oppression to see it as addiction.

While the controversial Seongnam -si and Seongnam City Poisoning Management Integrated Support Center have not yet expressed any stance, the reason for this incident is the Ministry of Health and Welfare.The Korea Game User Association pointed out that the mental health policy guide page and many regional addiction management integrated support centers on the website of the Ministry of Health and Welfare are marked with the Internet game as an addiction management along with alcohol, drugs and gambling.

the association also submitted a public petition for including internet games on the addiction management of the addiction management support center without legal basis, and proceeded with the disclosure of information. It is pointed out that the ‘game’ not specified in the Act on the support of Mental Health Promotion and Welfare Services for Mental Diseases is a distortion of the interpretation of the law and has a negative impact on the game culture and industry.

Lee Jang -ju, director of Irak Digital Culture Research Institute, said, “In 2014, the four major addiction attempts have been destroyed, but the ministry of Welfare and welfare’s Integrated Integrated Management Center specializes in Internet games for addiction.”It’s more surprising,” he said. “The four major addiction laws have been defeated, but it is indeed still four major addictions that the Internet (or smartphone, Internet game) has been repeated for more than 10 years as a major policy task of a national institution called addiction management center.”

Simultaneously occurring, with the contest of Seongnam -si, the introduction of the disease of the disease disorder code is emerging as a concern. The National Statistical Office is pursuing the revision of the classification system (KCD), the 10th Korean standard disease, based on the 11th revision of the International Disease Classification (ICD-11), which WHO listed in 2019. The key is whether the game disease code will be included in the KCD-10 seconds, which is known to be released later this year.

the National Statistical office is in a position to decide whether to introduce the domestic disorder disorder code in accordance with the decision of a public -private council, which has been operated by the State Coordination Office since 2019. The public -private council has not been able to conclude this conclusion for six years, but the ruling Democratic Party has launched a special game committee in March this year, and it is indeed interested in whether new flowers will flow as the core policy is to prevent the list of disorders with disorders.
