지진대비 안전수칙 매뉴얼의 지속적인 노출 방안 연구

초록

Relatively weak earthquakes have occurred on the Korean peninsula till 2016, so Korea have been classified as a safe zone for earthquakes. Citizens have not trained how to deal with earthquakes. However, earthquakes of magnitude 5.8 and 5.4, which occurred in 2016 and 2017 in Gyeongju and Pohang, were strong enough to be detected in some part of Japan and China, and people became aware that Korea is not a safe place from earthquakes either. Unlike the increased interest in earthquakes, adults were less likely to participate in seismic training or acquire earthquakes. In contrast, children and students were found to be constantly learning through school programmes. The purpose of this study is to propose a method to increase the information reaching rate to adults in the event of earthquake. The research process is as follows. First, we analyzed the publications and related data issued by the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA), including the earthquake trends and epicenters that occurred in Korea. Second, the publication of the Ministry of Interior and Safety(MOIS) on earthquake safety manuals and previous domestic and overseas studies were reviewed. Third, through in-depth interviews with adults living or staying in areas where recent earthquakes have occurred. The adults were not aware of the safety manual against earthquake, and the method of evacuation was not appropriate at the time of actual earthquake. Also, adults still had a low interest in the safety manual, even though they actually experienced the strong earthquakes. This led to the conclusion that it is necessary for adults to constantly disclose information in order to acquire evacuation precautions in case of earthquakes rather than evacuation drills on specific days. Based on the analysis, this study developed a simplified and visualized pictogram to make the manual more recognizable. In addition, contents were presented through various channels to enhance the accessibility of the manual. This allowed adults to become familiar with the evacuation procedures for earthquakes. In conclusion, this study aims at contributing to minimizing the damage of people and property due to earthquakes by providing contents considering the insights of adults in preparation for an earthquake and quickly evacuating without any confusion when an earthquake occurs.
