The Defense Ministry has decided the site for naval base at Gang Jung village, the south side of Jeju island which had been cited for the survey of Jeju local government at 2007. Since then the decision has brought about severe conflict between the people concerned and Jeju Provincial government. This paper examines the issue of public interest judgment in case of public conflict. We propose the distinction between the process and principle when we take a look into the public interest judgment. A justification which is based on the reasoning is required if a government decision making wants supports from the people concerned. In case of Jeju naval base, however, the government does not put much efforts in the process of decision making due to the reason that the projct is state sponsored. What they try to do was to satisfy the minimum institutional requirement. It was the very beginning of public conflict. Flathman see the concept of public interest as a guidance of decision making which has a normative and value oriented attributes. Thus public interest judgment has to be based on supreme moral and value principles. He does propose ‘consequence’ and ‘universal’ principles at more practical level. What he try to elaborate regarding public interest judgment is the importance of principle based on reasoning not just aggregation of individual preferences and their compromise. It means public interest judgment has to be based on rational justification of a principle rather than political bargaining. We try to suggest, based on Flathman’s argue, the decision making for the construction of Jeju naval base has to examine the unitary concept of public interest rather than the concepts of preponderance interest and common interest that the government has been based on.
