South Korea’s social service delivery system remains fragmented across ministries and agencies, generating service gaps, duplicated administrative burdens, and a provider-centered experience for users. This study proposes the Hyper-Personalized Social Welfare Platform (H-SWP) as a user-centered AI integration model for restructuring the Korean social service delivery system. This evidence-informed, design-oriented study reviews the literature on public service design, service sovereignty, AI-enabled public sector innovation, and integrated service delivery, while also drawing on comparative digital-government cases to construct an implementation framework appropriate for Korea. The analysis suggests that the H-SWP becomes most coherent when structured around four interconnected modules: AI-based need prediction, integrated service matching, digital care coordination, and feedback-based policy refinement. Existing scholarship and official public-sector cases indicate that integrated and user-centered service models can reduce administrative burden, improve continuity of care, support proactive identification of risk, and strengthen policy learning through service data. At the same time, legal constraints on data sharing, privacy risks, algorithmic bias, and the digital divide remain significant implementation barriers. The study therefore argues that the practical adoption of H-SWP requires phased piloting, institutional reform, privacy-by-design data governance, human-in-the-loop decision review, and the cultivation of Tech-Welfare Specialists. As a design-oriented conceptual study, this paper contributes not only a platform model but also a measurable validation framework for future empirical testing and pilot-based policy experimentation.

한국의 사회서비스 전달체계는 부처별 분절, 공급자 중심 운영, 반복적 신청 절차로 인해 복지 사각지대와 행정 비효율을 초래하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 사용자 중심 AI 통합 모델, 즉 초개인화 사회복지 플랫폼(Hyper-Personalized Social Welfare Platform, H-SWP)을 제안하는 데 있다. 본 연구는 공공서비스 설계, 서비스 주권, AI 기반 공공서비스 혁신 관련 선행연구를 검토하고, 한국과 해외의 디지털정부 및 통합서비스 사례를 비교 분석하여 한국형 사회서비스 전달체계 개편모형을 설계하였다. 분석 결과, H-SWP는 AI 기반 욕구 예측, 통합 서비스 매칭, 디지털 케어 조정, 피드백 기반 정책 개선의 네 모듈로 구성될 때 가장 높은 정책적 정합성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 선행연구와 공식 사례를 종합하면, 통합서비스 모델은 반복 신청 부담을 줄이고, 취약위험의 조기 식별과 연계 추적을 가능하게 하며, 사용자 중심 서비스 경험과 정책학습을 동시에 강화할 수 있는 잠재력을 가진다. 반면, 개인정보 보호, 부처 간 데이터 연계, 알고리즘 편향, 디지털 격차는 핵심 제약요인으로 확인되었다. 따라서 한국형 H-SWP의 실현을 위해서는 단계적 파일럿, 법·제도 정비, privacy-by-design 기반 데이터 거버넌스, human-in-the-loop 심사체계, 그리고 기술복지전문가 양성이 병행되어야 한다. 본 연구는 AI 기반 복지전달체계의 방향을 제시하는 설계지향형 논문으로서, 향후 실증 검증과 지역 단위 파일럿 연구를 위한 측정 가능 지표와 검증 프레임을 함께 제시한다.

Ever since next generation convergence technology became one of the most important industries in the nation, computing professionals have encountered a growing number of challenges. Along with scholars and colleagues in related fields, they have gathered in avariety of forums and meetings over the last few decades to share their knowledge, experiences and the outcome of their research. These exchanges have led to the founding of the International Next-generation Convergence technology (INCA) on December 1, 2015. INCA was registered as an incorporated association under the Ministry of Information and Communications. The main purpose of the organization is to improve our society by achieving the highest capability possible in next generation convergence technology.
