Lately, the Internet of Things(IoT) has sparked the public interest about it’s social influence. Although IoT is seen as a sign of the revolutionary changes, it is difficult to assess the effects of these changes and there are many problems to solve. So, the government have to carry out a careful analysis of all the factors of problems with legal responses before support the development of the related technologies. In this respect, this research analyzes the major issues of the IoT and proposes the basic direction of legal responses. It is expected that the IoT will be widely used across the full spectrum of society and in the IoT context, everyday physical objects that surround us collect, process, and exchange personal data without our interaction and recognition. Besides, the IoT ecosystem has such a complex structure with a range of techniques and services and it is impossible to exactly forecast the future development. Major issues of the IoT may be summarized as follows: Securing of the interoperability through standardization and efficient allocation of the radio spectrum, Security maintenance, Guarantee of human dignity and prevention of discrimination, Personal information protection. Especially, a much more serious problems with data privacy are caused by aforementioned characteristics of the IoT. In fact, all problems of the IoT including the personal information protection are not entirely new compared with existing internet environment that regarding the legal solution, also the matter of choosing either self-regulation focusing on the free development of technology and innovation or legal control on the precautionary principle for constitutional technological advancement. However, in Korea the Personal Information Protection Act that is generally applicable is in effect and so far the influence of the IoT is not obvious, so it should be avoided to rush to change the legal system. Instead, the government should enforce the Personal Information Protection Act for now and help the social consensus by providing information about risks of the IoT and then examine thoroughly whether current law system is proper to realize constitutional advancement and social consensus or not.
