This study aims to explore the factors associated with drin king and problem drinking among Korean adolescents. The 2013 Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBS) data was used. And logistic regression model was employed to investigate the risk factors of drinking and problem drinking. Our results show that sex, age, scholastic performance, pocket money, mental health and deviation factors are related to drinking and problem drinking. However, in the sex and educational background of their parents, the results were different from each other. In the case of drinking risk, boys are more likely to have a risk of drinking, whereas girls have more risk of problem drinking. Moreover, the educational background of their parents was risk factor in the risk of drinking whereas not in the problem drinking. These results deserve great attention, and the authorities need to keep it in perspective. It demonstrated that different health policies are essential for different outcomes, ie. the risk of drinking and problem drinking.
