This acts are based on the policy of cultural welfare. There are amendments to Culture and Arts Promotion Act, Cultural Industry Promotion Basic Act, Promotion Act of Regional Council, Act on Promotion of Film and Video, Contents Industry Promotion Act, "Artists Welfare Act, and Game Industry Promotion Act. In addition, enactments such as Act on Cultural Arts Sponsorship Activation, Support Act on Popular Culture and Art Industry Development, Local Culture Promotion Act, Act on Promotion of International Cultural Exchange, Act on Preservation and Promotion of Intangible Cultural Heritage, Act on Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity, National Leisure Activation Basic Act, Athlete Welfare Act, Special Act on Establishment of the Asian Film Center City and Promotion Act On Seniors Leisure Activities have been proposed. In this article, I would like to suggest ways to improve amendments to these cultural legislation. First, a clear definition of cultural welfare should be reflected. Second, the basic directions of cultural welfare should be reflected in the legal system. Finally, philosophy and purpose of the cultural welfare in newly enacted Cultural Basic Act should be discussed.  a2092-9633
