Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is another way to come up to an agreement for disagreeing parties, while avoiding courtroom litigation. ADR is more commonly used in sports disputes to prevent their escalation to litigation than any other areas since game rules and constitutions for sports organizations require highly professional knowledge and it conforms to the self-regulating nature of the sports community. In order to settle sports disputes effectively, an arbitration agency that well reflects on social and environmental conditions should be in place. In Korea, Korea Commission of Arbitration for Sports (KCAS) was launched in 2006 but was closed in 2009 as Korean Olympic Committee (KOC) suspended its support. As a result, many sports disputes are not properly addressed while various disputes arise from sports events both at home and abroad. This research compared two plans - one to create Korea Commission for Fair Play in Sport (KCFS) by revising the Sport Promotion Act in 2014, and the other to restore the dysfunctional KCAS - and analyzed which way is a better fit for the Korean context. The creation of KCFS depends on the enactment of a bill which has been pending before a parliamentary standing committee but nobody is pushing the decision forward and it is destined to be abortive at the end of the 19th National Assembly. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism was initially interested in the creation of KCFS but it renounced its support of the enactment, turning eyes to an idea that an organization with similar roles and responsibilities to be put in place within existing KOC. When considering the current conditions of the Korean sports community and its past experience, the plan to restore and activate KCAS will be a desirable option for Korea to ensure an effective arbitration system. In addition, it should be independent of KOC, unlike the past, and the Sport Promotion Act should be revised to give it a legal status and stipulate measures of financial support for it.
