Yongkyun Chung 한국인터넷전자상거래학회 2019 인터넷전자상거래연구 Vol.19 No.2

This study implements a case study in order to investigate the behavior of Korean college students as digital natives. Our finding is that most of Korean college students show the dependency to digital technologies in terms of affective dependence to digital technologies. In the area of game-preference behavior, a considerable portion of first and second interviewees indicates that they tend to play diverse kinds of video games. However, some of junior and senior interviewees do not show the equivalent fever in the digital entertainment. In case of multi-tasking behavior, responses are, broad-speakingly, categorized into three groups: first group where participants shows multi-tasking behavior; second group where participants do not show multi-tasking behavior; third group where participants show multi-tasking behavior depending on the nature of activities. In view of the fact that Korean students have been surrounded by digital technologies, there is a distinctive segment of college students who do not enjoy multi-tasking behavior. Our findings suggest that there are heterogenous pattern in multi-tasking behavior. On the choice between the monitor and book, all of students are known to choose the computer monitor instead of visiting the library and finding books containing the necessary information to write a report. In the realm of the side effect of the Internet, a couple of students reply that they recognize the side effect of the Internet such as security problem.

Artificial Intelligence and the Virtual Multi-Door ODR Platform for Small Value Cross-Border e-Commerce Disputes

Chung, Yongkyun The Korean Association of Arbitration Studies 2019 중재연구 Vol.29 No.3

In recent times, the volume of cross-border e-commerce has witnessed an upward trend and has been accompanied by increased disputes, with cross-border e-commerce being characterized mainly by low value and large volume issues. For this reason, Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) was formed to carry out dispute resolutions in cross-border e-commerce. A virtual multi-door ODR platform for small value, cross-border disputes in e-commerce is then proposed in this paper. For a couple of decades, researchers have tried to employ Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Law. However, it turns out that they were faced with a couple of obstacles to integrate AI to Law since it is highly difficult to program AI to process the common sense of a human being. For example, AI cannot assimilate the affective side of a human being, and it is problematic to integrate a human being's common sense into the AI system. Considering this situation, this study puts forward an ODR model for cross-border e-commerce in the evolutionary perspective.

Yongkyun Chung,Joong-Ryul Kim 한국인터넷전자상거래학회 2020 인터넷전자상거래연구 Vol.20 No.2

Nowadays, artificial intelligence emerges as one of the powerful tools to deliver personalized educational services to college students in distance education. The purpose of this study is to examine adult learner"s user acceptance of artificial intelligence lecturer in distance education. For this purpose, we utilize in-depth interview method as well as questionnaire method for data collection from a distance education university in South Korea. Our findings show that adult learners are reluctant to accept artificial intelligence(AI) as a lecturer in distance education. For example, a respondent expresses her opinion that human being must play the role of managing director of her course, if is inevitable to deploy artificial intelligence as a lecturer in distance education. For the choice among robot-type avatar and human-type avatar as the form of AI lecturer, most of students chose human-type avatar, instead of robot-type avatar as lecturer. Furthermore, adult learners do not agree to a view that AI lecturer may lessen the loneliness. Because they thought that loneliness is originated from the innate structure of distance education. On the other hand, however, non-negligible number of respondents participated in interview show that it is possible for them to build empathic relationship with AI lecturer.
