이 연구는 정보통신미디어 분야의 남북한 교류 협력 방안을 매체별 특성을 고려하여 살펴보았다. 남북한 교류협력에서 상호간의 문화적, 심리적 격차를 줄이기 위해서는 정보통신미디어 분야의 교류협력이 활성화 되어야 한다. 특히 정보통신미디어의 의사소통적 기능을 활용하여 남북간의 동질성 회복과 통일기반 형성을 위한 활발한 교류협력이 진행되어야 한다. 이를 위해 각 매체의 특성을 고려한 남북교류 방안을 모색해야 한다. 우선 우편, 전화 등의 통신미디어 교류를 통해 남북한의 인적, 물적 교류의 기반을 공고히 해야 한다. 그리고 책, 잡지 등의 인쇄미디어를 활용하여 남북한 개인간의 심리적 차이를 극복하도록 해야 하며, 방송과 영화 등의 영상미디어 교류를 통해 상호간의 문화적 동질성을 회복하도록 해야 한다. 그리고 인터넷미디어를 이용하여 남북 주민간의 쌍방향의 의사소통의 기회를 확대할 필요가 있으며, 상호간에 공통의 관심사를 개발한 필요가 있다. 이와 함께 북한의 열악한 정보통신 환경을 개선하기 위해 남한 측의 지원이 강구되어야 한다. 또한 남북한의 정보통신미디어와 서비스의 호환성을 갖도록 하기 위해 기술표준을 통일해야하며, 남북한 교류와 협력에 관한 남한 측의 각종 법규와 제도의 개선이 뒤 따라야 한다.

This study examined exchange and cooperation plan for South and North Korea through media in accordance with media characteristics. Previously, exchange and cooperation between two Koreas were focused on economic and political aspects, however. in order to minimize cultural and psychological differences for both parties, the media should take active roles in the exchange and cooperation. Thus the exchange and cooperation plan was required to be devised to recover homogeneity between two Koreas, by using communication functions of the media. Through the telecommunication exchanges such as posts and telephones, a base for the exchange of human resources and materials between two Koreas should be firmly grounded. Through the press exchanges such as books and magazines, mutual psychological differences should be overcome, and through the visual medium exchanges such as broadcasts and films, cultural homogeneity should be recovered. In addition, through the internet media, which becomes increasingly popular in recent years, opportunities for the two-way communications between peoples of two Koreas should be widely available, and contents that draw mutual attentions are also to be developed. So as to activate the exchange and cooperation between two koreas in the media, support mesures for basic facilities in North Korea are necessary, moreover, technical standards are to be unified for compatibility of the media and services in two Koreas. Subsequently, improvements of various rules and systems in South Korea regarding the exchange and cooperation are also to be made.
