Recently, the increase of lonely daeth has rapidly emerged as a social problem in Korea due to the aging population and the increase of single-person households. However, the government has no clear conception of lonely daeth and no basic statistics. Therefore, there is no choice but to have limitations in establishing policies for welfare services such as the prevention of lonely daeth. Often, the future is seen when you know the statistics. Statistics on lonely death may be the most desirable way for Statistics Korea to establish national statistics through fact-finding surveys. However, the Statistics Korea's investigation is time-consuming and costly due to legislation and death disease codes. Accordingly, in this paper, we propose a method for the National Police Agency to construct statistics on lonely death using the Korea Information System of Criminal Justice Services in which data are stored, and examine the expected effects through it. First, the establishment of regulations defining lonely daeth by revising the rules of the National Police Agency's order. Second, a plan to improve the system based on existing death reports that do not have a clear cause of death(death at home, single-person households, death discovered after 3 days and developing system to extract the status of solitary deaths) in the KICS. The expected effect of the construction of lonely daeth statistics using this KICS will allow annual statistical data construction, budget savings and building more accurate statistics.
