Abstract

This study aims to present a plan to develop the funeral culture industry based on the results of a survey on the contents of funeral culture awareness, funeral culture industry development, and funeral culture education according to age groups. The survey in this study was researched by Gallup Korea, and the survey method was an online research using a structured questionnaire. The survey was conducted twice, from February 5, 2021 to February 8, 2021, and from February 18, 2021 to February 19, 2021. The effective subjects are 316, and the sampling method is allocated by sex and age. As a result of the study, cremation was preferred by all age groups, and the places where cremated remains were placed were high in the natural burials and ossuary hall. Although there are some differences by age groups, it was surveyed that generally, the elderly than the younger were less reluctant to sign up for condolence products, funerals in life, farewell trips, purchase farewell travel products, funeral insurance, and counsel with death-related experts. The results of this study are expected to contribute to interdisciplinary convergence research on the recognition and development of the funeral culture industry.

본 연구의 목적은 연령대에 따른 장례문화인식, 장례문화산업개발, 장례문화교육 내용에 대한 설문조사 결과를 토대로 장례문화산업 개발 방안 제시이다. 본 연구의 설문은 한국갤럽에 의해 실시되었으며, 조사방법은 구조화된 질문지를 이용한 온라인 조사를 실시했다. 조사일시는 2021년 2월 5일~2021년 2월 8일, 추가조사는 2021년 2월 18일~2021년 2월 19일에 실시되었다. 유효 연구대상자는 316명이며, 표본추출방법은 성/연령별 할당 추출이다. 연구결과 전 연령대에서 화장을 선호했으며, 화장한 유골의 안치 장소는 수목장과 납골당이 높았다. 연령대별로 다소 차이는 있지만 대체로 청년에서 노년층으로 갈수록 상조상품 가입, 생전장례식, 이별여행, 이별여행상품구매, 장례보험 가입, 죽음관련 전문가와의 상담에 대해 거부감이 적은 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구 결과는 장례문화산업 인식과 개발 방안에 대한 학제간 융합 연구에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
