As the Korean government implements an e-Government which can provide electronic service delivery to the citizens through the Internet, privacy has become one of Korean’s most important civil rights. The National Education Information System (NEIS) case shows that e-service delivery initiatives in many countries have been more and more faced with the difficult task of balancing personal privacy and efficiency in government information administration. The lesson from the NEIS case is that it is very difficult to implement government information initiatives without consideration of information privacy rights. Therefore, it is requested that the right to participate in the whole process of government information initiatives should be given to the information subject. Therefore, each government agency’s information initiatives should be supervised by independent authority with strong privacy policies.
