The purpose of this study is to identify she frames of news reports on climate change in major dailies: Chosunilbo, Joongang Daily, and Hankyoreh. We analyzed the contents of more than 1,700 news articles of the period 1999-2009. The results showed that the news frames were significantly changed from simple reports of ``facts`` to more ``attitude-directed`` reports and ``action-oriented`` reports of climate change. On the other hand, we found that conservative dailies such as Chosunilbo and Joongang Daily showed more action-oriented or economy-focused news frames, while Hankyoreh, a progressive daily, showed more policy-critical frames.
