Abstract
As for domestic stalking crimes, stalking began to be recognized as a crime when the 'Special Act on Stalking Punishment' was proposed in 1999. It was pointed out that there was no direct regulation on the definition of stalking behavior and the basis for punishment, and the revision of the 'Misdemeanor Punishment Act' in 2013 laid the groundwork for punishment. As a result, With the establishment of a 'stalking' code in the 112 reporting system in May 2018, stalking crime statistics and information management related to the case began to be systematically carried out. The number of stalking crime reports has increased more than 10 times in the past five years, from 2,767 in 2018 to 29,565 in 2022, the most recent report. Therefore, due to the increasing number of stalking crimes and the limitations of victim protection under the current law, policy intervention is necessary for the perpetrators of stalking crimes. Therefore, this study aims to find out about correction and counseling programs for overseas stalking perpetrators, and to make policy suggestions on the necessity of correction and counseling programs for domestic stalking perpetrators. As a result of the study, in the case of the UK and Japan, it was possible for the police to intervene early against stalking perpetrators, and in particular, several institutions cooperated to operate treatment and counseling programs for perpetrators to verify their effectiveness.
