Summary
The Juvenile Protection Act of Korea aims to protect the well-being and development of juveniles by regulating access to harmful media, drugs, and business establishments. It recognizes individuals under 19 as juveniles and specifies various media products, drugs, and business environments considered harmful. The Act mandates the roles and responsibilities of families, society, and government bodies to prevent juveniles from engaging with harmful environments. Families are required to prevent and restrain juveniles from harmful exposures, while society, including business operators, must endeavor to protect juveniles and report violations. The State and local governments are tasked with formulating and implementing policies for a safer juvenile environment, considering technological advancements and international cooperation. The Act takes precedence for criminal punishment related to harmful environments for juveniles, ensuring a robust legal framework for juvenile protection, overseen by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family.
