South Korea's parliament is considering a law that would classify online gaming as potentially antisocial addiction alongside gambling, drugs and alcohol.

The bill has won support from parents, religious groups and doctors but has alarmed the internet industry and enraged gamers. The legislation includes provisions to limit advertising, while a separate bill would take 1% of the gaming industry's revenue to create a fund to curb addiction.

The uproar over the legislation highlights conflicting social and economic priorities in South Korea. Internet entrepreneurs are prized as a source of innovation, but conservative politicians and many parents say online obsessions are taking a growing toll on schooling, families and workplaces.

"We need to create a clean Korea free from the four addictions," Hwang Woo-yea, an MP in the ruling party, said in a recent speech.

The legislative assault, backed by 14 ruling party lawmakers, is the latest phase in South Korea's culture wars. Headline-grabbing incidents such as the death by starvation of the infant daughter of two online gamers have fuelled a moral panic. A law passed in 2011 that bans gaming between midnight and dawn for anyone under age 16 is being challenged at South Korea's constitutional court.

"There is a huge prejudice that gaming is harmful," said Lee Byung-chan, an attorney involved in the constitutional court case. "Games are as harmful as alcohol, drugs and gambling, that's the prejudice."

Game companies have taken exception to being lumped together with drugs, alcohol and gambling, and say the bill is a death sentence for their industry. "The 100,000 people employed in the game industry are not drugmakers," said the Korea Internet and Digital Entertainment Association, which represents game companies.

Online gaming has become a significant export industry. In 2012, MapleStory and other titles earned more cash from abroad for South Korea than the YouTube sensation Gangnam Style, K-pop music, movies and all other cultural exports combined.

The government started studying internet game addiction in 2011. Its latest annual study found that 2% of South Koreans aged 10-19, or about 125,000 people, needed treatment for excessive online gaming or were at risk of addiction.

"My parents tried to stop me but I kept playing. Even the government wouldn't have stopped me," said Shin Minchul, a 21-year-old college student as he recounted his heavy gaming past.

At elementary school Shin bonded with his friends at an internet cafe playing StarCraft for three to four hours a day after classes finished. He dreamed of becoming one of the professionals with corporate sponsorship whose games are broadcast live on cable TV to audiences numbering in the millions. By high school, he was playing World of Warcraft for up to 15 hours straight.

Shin's rank at school plunged from the top to bottom half. "When I tried to think more broadly about my life, playing games wasn't that important," Shin said. "Then I lost interest."

Supporters of the bill say cases like Shin's show why curbs are needed. Kim Min-sun, a mother of two, said online games took children away from real life. "Without online games, kids would talk to their mother and play," she said.

Others say South Korea should do more to address the factors behind online game addiction, such as hyper-competitive education and a dearth of other leisure options for teenagers. South Korea had the lowest percentage of students who reported being happy at school in 2012 among 65 countries surveyed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

韓國(guó)議會(huì)擬通過(guò)一項(xiàng)法律，將網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲與賭博、吸毒和酗酒一并列入潛在反社會(huì)上癮癥。

該提案現(xiàn)已獲得家長(zhǎng)、宗教團(tuán)體及醫(yī)生的支持，但遭到了互聯(lián)網(wǎng)產(chǎn)業(yè)反對(duì)并激怒了游戲玩家。這項(xiàng)立法案中提出限制游戲廣告，而另一個(gè)提案則擬征收游戲產(chǎn)業(yè)1%的營(yíng)業(yè)額，以建立防治游戲成癮基金。

對(duì)該議案的反對(duì)之聲凸顯了韓國(guó)的社會(huì)與經(jīng)濟(jì)優(yōu)先權(quán)之間的沖突�；ヂ�(lián)網(wǎng)創(chuàng)業(yè)素來(lái)被褒獎(jiǎng)為創(chuàng)新的源泉，但保守政治家和家長(zhǎng)們卻說(shuō)網(wǎng)絡(luò)成癮現(xiàn)象正在學(xué)校、家庭和工作場(chǎng)所中泛濫開(kāi)來(lái)。

執(zhí)政黨議員黃伍延（Hwang Woo-yea）在最近的一次演講中說(shuō)道："我們需要營(yíng)造一個(gè)健康的社會(huì)環(huán)境，使韓國(guó)擺脫這四種上癮行為的不良影響。"

這次立法打擊網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲成癮得到了14位執(zhí)政黨議員的支持，標(biāo)志著韓國(guó)的文化之爭(zhēng)進(jìn)入了最新階段。有兩位游戲玩家醉心于游戲而餓死了自己的女?huà)搿�—�?lèi)似事件常常登上報(bào)紙頭條，引起了社會(huì)的道德恐慌。2011年通過(guò)的一條法律禁止16歲以下的青少年在午夜到破曉這段時(shí)間內(nèi)玩游戲，但該法律條文正受到來(lái)自韓國(guó)憲法法庭的挑戰(zhàn)。

"有一種巨大的偏見(jiàn)認(rèn)為玩游戲是有害的，"參與此案審理的律師李炳昌說(shuō)道。"他們認(rèn)為玩游戲和酒精、毒品和賭博的害處一樣大。"

游戲公司反對(duì)將其與毒品、酒精和賭博混為一談，認(rèn)為這項(xiàng)立法案無(wú)疑是給游戲產(chǎn)業(yè)判了死刑。代表游戲公司的韓國(guó)網(wǎng)絡(luò)電子娛樂(lè)協(xié)會(huì)抗議道："從事游戲產(chǎn)業(yè)的十萬(wàn)員工絕不等同于制毒者。"

據(jù)悉，網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲已經(jīng)成為韓國(guó)重要的出口產(chǎn)業(yè)支柱。2012年，包括MapleStory在內(nèi)的網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲?yàn)轫n國(guó)創(chuàng)下的外匯收入比Youtube上大熱的《江南style》、韓流音樂(lè)、電影等文化出口加起來(lái)的還要多。

韓國(guó)政府自2011年起開(kāi)始研究網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲的成癮現(xiàn)象。最近的一份年度報(bào)告顯示，韓國(guó)10至19歲的青少年中有2%（約為12萬(wàn)5千人）的人需要接受網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲過(guò)量治療，或者是有游戲成癮的危險(xiǎn)。

21歲的大學(xué)生申敏中（Shin Minchul）在回憶自己的游戲上癮史時(shí)說(shuō)道："我爸媽想不讓我玩，但我還是在玩。就算是政府也擋不住我玩游戲。"

上小學(xué)時(shí)，申敏中每天放學(xué)后都會(huì)和朋友結(jié)伴去網(wǎng)吧玩上三四個(gè)小時(shí)的《星際爭(zhēng)霸》（StarCraft）。他夢(mèng)想成為一名職業(yè)游戲玩家，有自己的贊助商，每場(chǎng)游戲都會(huì)在有線電視上直播給千千萬(wàn)萬(wàn)的觀眾們看。到了高中，他可以不間斷地玩《魔獸》（WarCraft）15小時(shí)。

而他在學(xué)校里的排名也從前幾名直跌到倒數(shù)幾名。"當(dāng)我試著從更廣闊的角度考慮我的生活時(shí)，玩游戲就沒(méi)那么重要了，"申敏中說(shuō)。"那之后我喪失了對(duì)游戲的興趣。"

上述法案的支持者稱(chēng)，像申敏中這樣的案例證明了立法約束的必要性。金敏允（Kim Min-sun）是兩個(gè)孩子的母親。她覺(jué)得網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲讓孩子們遠(yuǎn)離了真實(shí)生活。"沒(méi)有網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲的話，孩子們就會(huì)跟媽媽聊聊天做做游戲，"她如此說(shuō)道。

也有人認(rèn)為韓國(guó)政府應(yīng)該多下點(diǎn)功夫來(lái)深究網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲成癮背后的原因，比如說(shuō)教育的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)過(guò)于激烈、青少年娛樂(lè)途徑的缺少等等。2012年，經(jīng)濟(jì)合作與發(fā)展組織開(kāi)展的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示，韓國(guó)學(xué)生在校的快樂(lè)程度在受調(diào)查的65個(gè)國(guó)家中處于最低水平。
