Abstract

The fear of crime felt by foreigners residing in Korea is emerging as an important social problem. Most of the previous studies have focused on the fear of crime among domestic citizens, and studies on the fear of crime from the perspective of foreign residents are insufficient. Therefore, this paper aims to explore from various angles why foreigners residing in Korea are afraid of crime. To this end, it is necessary to systematically analyze the causes and effects of crime fear experienced by foreigners, and seek appropriate prevention and improvement measures. As a result of the analysis, it was found that regional order and Korean conflict had a statistically significant effect on crime fear. As a result of reviewing the results of studies dealing with the relationship between crime fears, it was found that conflicting results were presented, and it was intended to understand what causes these differences. In conclusion, this study is significant in that it considers crime fears in various aspects based on the models presented in previous studies. Therefore, it is expected that this study will contribute to promoting mutual understanding between foreigners and domestic residents and provide useful information for policy establishment and civic education.
