The present study explored Korean parents' perceptions of and behavior toward game use among teenagers in Korea. A total of 600 Korean mothers of teenagers residing in Seoul and five other metropolitan areas participated in the survey. The survey was constructed based on five categories of variables, including the overall perception of games and game use, specific attitudes toward game use, cognitions about and attitudes toward game addiction, factors predicting parental monitoring of children's game use, and views and opinions about what needs to be done to promote healthy game cultures as well as to prevent problematic game use among teenagers in Korea. Results indicate that the respondents' overall perceptions of and attitudes toward games and game use are negative. In contrast, attitudes toward game use of the respondent's own child are contingent upon various comparison standards. Results also indicate that the respondents tend to overestimate the possibility that their own child is addicted to games, and their perceptions of game addiction are based on a narrow range of behavioral symptoms. Additional analyses indicate that parental monitoring of teenagers' game use can be predicted by the theoretical model driven from Ajzen(1991)'s theory of planned behavior. Finally, results also indicate that, in order to deal with the problems associated with teenagers' game use, proactive approaches to promote healthy game cultures as well as various initiatives to prevent problematic game use are necessary. Implications of the findings and future direction were discussed.

In this research we attempt to observe the creative and cultural liberal translation for 'Hearthstone'. Also we examine the reaction of the game players when they face the translated expressions. At first, we consider the free translation methods. Then, we contemplate how the translating skills are employed. Next, the response of the game users is weighed through the questionnaires survey. Based on the results the players prefer the closeness between the original and the altered text. Otherwise, they tend to grant the freely translated terms without finding the proper terms.

일반적으로 게임에서는 유저의 과금이나 광고 시청 등으로 수익을 내기 때문에 게임을 플레이 하는 유저의 수는 곧 그 게임의 수익으로 이어진다. 그러므로 신규 유저의 유입뿐만 아니라 기존 유저의 이탈을 막는 것 또한 매우 중요하다. 유저의 이탈은 짧은 기간 동안 게임을 플레이 한 유저인지 아니면 매우 오래 플레이하고 과금까지 하던 충성고객인지를 가리지 않고 일어난다. 본 논문은 설문을 통해 온라인과 모바일 게임에서 유저의 이탈 경험과 이탈 원인에 대해서 조사하고 이에 따른 유저의 이탈 예방과 개선 방안을 제시한다.

Along with technological development and change of perception, the form of advanced game space appears in various ways. And some game spaces have gradually gotten factors of placeness and become a place. The main purpose of this research is to identify the characteristics of game space from a place-based perspective. For this, the generations are divided into four sections based upon the factors of placeness. At the first generation, there are no elements of placeness. But as time goes by, elements of placeness have been increased gradually. Finally, in the fourth generation, various elements of placeness are found in some game spaces. This study offer insight into game space in a diachronic viewpoint and humanistic approach.

This study examines the legend of 'Grandmother Seolmundae and Five Hundred Generals', the cultural archetypes of Jeju, and analyzes the characteristics of its contents. After analyzing the feasibility of using the analyzed cultural prototype as cultural contents such as games and animations, based on this analysis, we tried to suggest a cultural planning approach based on the cultural prototype to the cultural agency. Therefore, the implications of this study are as follows. First, among the cultural prototypes in Korea, 'Grandmother Seolmundae and Five Hundred Generals', which represent the legends of Jeju Island, are being organized centered on many historical researchers and Chaerokga, but there is no precise establishment of the exact timing of the legend and how it arose. Therefore, when planning and developing content based on the cultural prototype, it is most important for cultural agencies to develop a story after researching historical evidence and opinions of local residents to identify a consistent point of view. Second, although the contents of the cultural archetype are arranged slightly differently by historians and recorders, the main contents and characteristics of the story are found to have a similar form. Therefore, cultural agencies should focus on finding the point of view and characteristics of a story, even if a story is written differently by different people when doing a cultural prototype. Third, when planning a game based on the cultural prototype, the main elements such as the elements to be expressed in the game and the fun elements should be found and presented. In particular, because fun and rules are the most important parts of games, if this part cannot be derived from the story of the cultural archetype or cannot be made, it is difficult to transform the cultural archetype into a game. Therefore, it can be seen that it is important for cultural agencies to set their game plan intentions in consideration of story expression and fun, even if it is the core or non-core of the entire story of the cultural archetype. Lastly, although the cultural prototype 'Grandmother Seolmundae and Five Hundred Generals' was presented as animation content, it is important to develop it considering the story, characters, media, and audience. Therefore, cultural agencies should be able to derive the elements such as stories, representative and auxiliary characters, and viewers that can be adapted from the cultural prototype as much as possible. It will be an important part of raising.
