Especially compared to adult crime, juvenile crime has higher recidivism rate, which leads to strong doubt about the limitations of existing treatment. This is because the correctional institutions have a bad influence on the juvenile criminal, that is not the original purpose like correction and edification, but relearning of crime. To prevent the recidivism of juvenile crime needs an active level in terms of the return as sound citizens through correction beyond a simple level of maintaining order. Correction welfare is one of the most important measures to prevent the recidivism of juvenile crime. This study examines the notion, types and trend of juvenile crime, considers the concept and functions of correction welfare, and shows the prevention of recidivism of juvenile crime in perspective of correction welfare.
