As recent increasing number of child abuse cases in South Korea, it is considered a serious social problems in our society. In particular, prevention of child abuse is impossible without improving the society’s overall awareness perceived as child abuse is an important issue. Therefore, the purpose of current study is to examine the public perception of child abuse by analyzing news and comments related to child abuse and ‘Yangcheon Child Abuse Incident’. The results from analyses suggested that the majority of people were aware of the seriousness of child abuse and perceived corporal punishment under the guise of discipline as abuse, and this perception had not significantly changed much over time. In addition, distrust of investigative organization and social prejudice against non-blood families such as adoptive families and remarried families appeared. Finally, when a child abuse incident occurred, in which the severity of the abuse was high enough to result in the death of a child, people’s interest in child abuse increased rapidly. On the other hand, emotional abuse, which is less noticeable, has tended not to be perceived as abuse. The current study make a signficant contribution to develop measures for raising the right awareness and continuing interest in child abuse by identifying public awareness of child abuse. The limits of the current study and suggestions for future research were also discussed.
