특별기고 : 법정드라마를 이용한 법학교육 -드라마 “너의 목소리가 들려”를 중심으로- = A Study on Legal Education using Court Dramas -Focused on TV drama “I can hear your voice”-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Legal education is the education for individuals who intend to become legal professionals or those who simply intend to learn legal knowledge. Almost law professors always think about the efficient methods of legal education, because laws are very difficult to understand. In this situation, conventional methods of legal education (including theory-oriented teaching and case-oriented teaching) need to be changed in modern complex society. Therefore, concerning the new approaches to the methods of legal education, I suggest the legal education where TV court dramas are used. Concretely in this semester I have used ‘I can hear your voice’, together with the related court movies (including ‘12 Angry Men’, ‘Liar Liar’, ‘Itaewon Murder Case’, ‘Double Jeopardy’ etc.), which is the 2013 korean SBS TV drama featuring several cases handled in courts. Legally analyzing this drama, I dealt with several legal points, which are included in following cases. 1. Case of attempted murder of Dong Hee Moon, from which we learn the legal formality. 2. Twin`s murder case, which is related with prisoner`s dilemma. 3. Case of Dae Song Lee`s larceny, in which we treat the problem of ‘crime and relationship’. 4. Murder case of Chun Shim Euh, from which we learn the ‘rule of assumption of innocence’ can be abused. 5. Left hand murder case, from which we learn the rule of assumption is very important in the light of human rights. 6. Case of attempted murder of the ghost, where we wonder if the ‘rule of not reopening a settled case’(which is similar with the ‘rule of prohibition against double jeopardy’) can be applied. Especially I consider this case as containing very heavy legal points, even though it does not belong to this drama`s main stream, because it has very strongly debatable legal points, which are even related with legal philosophy. In this case I suggested the theory of ‘the relative legal death’ caused by normative power. Although the above method of using a court drama has some defects (including unreality etc.), I think that is a new method of improving the legal education, as it causes the students strong learning motivation which is of much importance in modern pedagogy.
