# Mr. A, a social worker from the metropolitan area's ward office (interview in mid-April last year)
"You can see the car number as you pass. If you enter that, you will see all the car owner information. Ex-owner and information to buy this car now, resident registration number, cell phone or name, and how much more does this person buy this car if you go deeper or what happens to the previous record. It's floating. You can see if this person has severed a few days, days, months, and even the address of where he lives. "

"That's not just Seoul, but it means that we are doing business even in the local area. We can see all the local areas. We can look up  all of Korea right now."


The speech was blocked. Mr. A said that it handles registration of as many as 200 vehicles per day and transfer of owners. He said he could know everything about the vehicle owner. Even the owner's personal information of a vehicle passing along the road if he just wants to.

Of course, if this is the department in charge of car registration at any ward office in Korea, it is necessary to access and process the 'Tax Information System' for civil complaints. However, not a social worker, but a public servant.

On April 3, the Military Manpower Administration announced that it would ban social service personnel from handling personal information in the future. It was a countermeasure after reports that Jo Joo-bin, the operator of the sexually-extracted sharing room 'Park's room', took over personal information retrieved by two social workers who were paid members.

It is estimated that approximately 60,000 social service personnel serve in the country. The Military Manpower Administration and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security jointly announced that they would investigate the status of social service personnel handling personal information. The central ministry warned me about this, but I was wondering if I would still work on personal information.

● "You're not going to spill, are you?"

Civil servants never told me I shouldn't do this because of the n-room incident, but a civil servant asked me. "There was a case in the n room, can I continue this, right?" He said, "I just do it because I just do it." When I asked the head of the team where I was working, "Isn't there a separate job for a social worker?" I said, "The standard is not set, and if there is a job, the social worker should help each other like this."

just keeps going as if nothing happened. He told us twice, "Be careful, be careful because you leak this personal information elsewhere or you'll be punished." That's it.

#Social service agent □□ Mr.
I knew that he (the Military Manpower Administration) had an official letter. It is forbidden to operate personal information because of n room. So I asked the person in charge, "Is there no official document?" After a while ... I got an official document after 10 minutes. When I got it, the person in charge said it after saying, "Because this personal information work was banned, I ... I'd like to talk to the higher head of the agency to tell you what to do in the future." , Still, I was told, "I just have to do something like this anyway, so I just have to do it".

In the past three weeks, reporters have been informed by at least 10 social service personnel that they are 'still working on personal information.' Their work was also varied. From dealing with documents containing personal information of suspects and accused persons (even reporters to victims) written in the arrest warrant or indictment, courts and resident centers handle civil affairs such as resident registration and herbal processing, and students and patients in universities and hospitals. Even to see their personal information.

Of course, before asking SBS, they asked the senior official, one of his senior managers, once. "Can I still do this?" The only response that came back was an irresponsible answer, "You don't have to spill." Just a week ago, even though the public officials in charge of the job by telling the social security personnel of the doctor's room to their administrative information system access ID and password, they may have seen an article erected by the police.

● "Social workers, aren't they?"

However, what made the reporters' speech more difficult was the easy recognition of the public officials and the discriminatory awareness of the social service personnel underlying them. Transfers the content of a call with a public official during the interview.

# Local government official ●● Mr.
"I have a cat in a fish store ... Anyway, I have an accident once or twice. When I serve, I have to work together and manage well ... It's too difficult to manage well. The more important issue is a social worker. If you go into the problem of qualities, there are cases where people with mental problems work in a child or women's center, not because they are a little sick. There is no law that sexual harassment or other parts will not occur again. Where to place…. "

So, according to the policy of the Ministry of Military Affairs and Administration and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, it is an explanation that returns the institutional and structural diagnosis that social service personnel are prohibited from handling personal information in the future as a personal factor that 'social service personnel are likely to cause accidents and they are a problem'. Will.

Even if there are some social workers with problems, it is the purpose of this report and the policy of the central government that administrative and institutional supplementation is needed to block various possibilities of access to personal information or behavior.

● That's why I reported it.

Social service agents who report to reporters say that their job is too dangerous for them to see. Even if you're exposed, you may be disadvantaged by the service agency. Nevertheless, the reason for resolving the report and the consciousness of the problem that we intend to convey through this report are replaced by an interview with a social worker.

# Social worker ◇◇ Mr.
Last thing I want to say is, There are a lot of civil servants who take their personal information lightly even if the work process is light. If even such a light job is related to personal information, I don't think it should be given to social workers.

The Military Manpower Administration will conduct a survey on the handling of personal information by social service personnel by the end of May. Based on the results of the survey, he said he would prepare a comprehensive measure in cooperation with the Ministry of Public Administration and Security. Social service personnel's handling of personal information is currently ongoing. I'll wait for a lot of tips.
