Probability -type items, prevention of environmental advantage

Regarding the probability-type item, It is a positive impact on the expansion of free users by preventing the environment in which billing users become unilaterally advantageous than free users, he said. The opinion was presented.

Currently, the proposal proposed by lawmaker Lee Pantheon is pending in the National Assembly. The above opinion is reflected in some game companies that are concerned about regulation in the review report. The professional committee member is a civil servant of the National Assembly with expertise to help legislative activities. When a member of the National Assembly proposes an amendment, a professional committee reviews and submits a report. The lawmakers refer to the report and decide whether to pass. The report of a professional committee affects the parliamentary activities.

According to Lee Pantheon's office on the 22nd, some amendments to the legal regulations on probability-type items were referred to the bill on the 20th. Currently, lawmaker Lee Pantheon is preparing for all amendments and partial amendments to the legal regulation of probability item. All the amendments that were proposed last year were prepared for some amendments that contained only probability regulations in preparation for the difficulties that would be difficult to pass. Some amendments are easier to pass compared to the amendment.

According to the opinion of the National Assembly's Cultural Sports and Tourism Committee, the specialty of the probability-type item legal regulation is a positive position. The expert commissioner added that sanctions and punishment need to be accompanied by effective regulations.

Chung Poncho, a senior commissioner at the Culture Committee, said, The committee member Lee Pantheon said that it would be mandatory to indicate the type of probability-type item and the probability information by type. Unlike current self-regulation, it is necessary to discuss ways to secure effectiveness by integrating with much legislative legislation, which needs to be involved in effective sanctions and punishment in order to restore users' trust through legal regulations. I commented.

In addition, Chung Poncho added that the legal regulation of probability-type items is recognized internationally.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has already disclosed probability information, so it is unlikely that it will be a new burden even if it is defined by law, but it is possible to secure equity and increase user reliability by giving public obligations to overseas operators.

The expert committee members also present negative opinions on the amendment so that members of the National Assembly can refer to various opinions when judging the law. In terms of negative opinions, the Korea Game Industry Association revised the Code of Autonomy in May 2021, and the expansion of the probability disclosure was flexible. Flexibility and rapidity are evaluated as a desirable aspect of self-regulation.
