Complete Overhaul of Copyright Registration System... Introduction of Responsive Web and More

[Asia Economy Reporter Jonggil Lee] The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Copyright Commission have completely revamped the Copyright Registration System (CROS) and launched it on the 2nd. By introducing a ‘responsive web’ design, the screen layout is optimized according to the device used by the user. Additionally, based on web standard technologies without plugins, it is now accessible on various web browsers such as Chrome and Internet Explorer.

The complicated copyright registration application process has been simplified from eight steps to four. Various payment methods, including customer management numbers, easy payment, and mobile payment, have been introduced, and ‘Color Universal Design’ has been applied to improve accessibility for the elderly and colorblind users.

The database structure for registration information has also been redesigned. In addition to the Copyright Commission’s ‘Rights Holder Search System’ and ‘Digital Copyright Exchange,’ it is linked with the Ministry of the Interior and Safety’s ‘Administrative Information Joint Use Center’ and the Ministry of Science and ICT’s ‘National Science and Technology Knowledge Information Service,’ thereby broadening the foundation for industrial utilization.
