★Sejong Children's Literature Award" and "Korean Children's Literature Award" winner, Lee Kyu-hee, presents her work! "War of Bad Reviews" by Lee Kyu-hee has been incorporated into Korean elementary school textbooks. In this instance, Lee Kyu-hee crafts a clever tale to educate elementary school children about the pitfalls of mobile phone use, reminding parents and children alike to safeguard their personal information and avoid becoming victims of telecom fraudThis book is a fairy tale designed to caution children about the proper use of mobile phones and the prevention of personal information leaks. Author Lee Kyu-hee deftly weaves themes of personal information leakage, infringement of portrait rights, and more into a series of engaging stories, aiming to raise awareness among parents and children about the protection of personal information.
In today's digital era, children are increasingly reliant on electronic devices, particularly mobile phones. While mobile phones can have negative impacts on children, a complete ban is neither practical nor advisable. Mobile phones serve as a tool for children to connect with the world and a gateway to learning and exploration. However, the longer children engage with mobile phones, the higher the risk they face of personal information leakage and telecom fraud.
The story's protagonist, Soo-ji, plays with a mobile phone while her mother is working and stumbles upon a lottery event offering a prize of 100,000 won. Eager to surprise her mother, Soo-ji enters the event without hesitation, inputting her mother's personal information, unaware that it is a scam designed to harvest personal data.
The book also narrates other stories related to the misuse of personal information, such as Fan Yu, who uploads photos online without his friend's consent, and Min Guk, who is coerced into buying unnecessary items for a mere 10,000 won. These stories, which could easily be real-life scenarios, drive home the importance of personal information protection to children.
