The purpose of this paper is to examine how European textbooks reflect Seoul nowadays. The study focuses on the trend of textbooks in main European countries, such as England, France, Spain, Italy, and Germany. They tend to describe Seoul as one of the mega cities with urban problems, and introduces the city as an economic center which is responsible for interaction with other mega cities. Besides, Seoul is also described as less competitive city compared to others, and its history and cultural resources are not paid attention. Despite everything, it is fortunate that there are very few errors in descriptions of Seoul. In future I expect that descriptions of Seoul in European textbooks are enhanced in not only economic aspects of Seoul but also historic and cultural aspects of Seoul and then European textbooks get more reliable contents to inform Korea.

In the planning phase of domestic urban environment maintenance and improvement projects, a particular problem is the increase in service expenses and project cost with the establishment of plans under circumstances that exclude the residents or have incomplete consent from them and the public organization. This delays the promotion of the project. This study aims to resolve such problems by proposing a measure to introduce a privatepublic consultative body for residents and the relevant departments of the public sector, to encourage them to participate and establish plans together from the beginning. This is expected to contribute to the smooth promotion of the project, as it would remove the conflicting factors that are expected to be generated in the project implementation phase before they could emerge.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the change in the distribution and hierarchical structure of commercial land use. Tools for analyzing the spatial structure are index of concentration, coefficient of localization and location quotient. This research is applied to Daegu, focusing on the period 1985-2003. During the 1985-2003 period, the growth rate of commercial land use volume amounted to 330%, compared with a population growth rate of 118%. The biggest component of commercial land use is the retail sector. As the lodging, medical, transportation-warehouse and entertainment sectors have the propensity for concentration and comprise the specialized commercial areas in the suburbs, the other sectors arc evenly distributed. Jung-gu has functioned as a downtown core in the hierarchical structure of commercial areas. So, in the structure of commercial land use, Daegu has continued to be a single nuclear structure. But, Dongdaegu Station influence area has evolved into the second order center since 2000. This is the sign of change in spatial structure from single-nuclear pattern to multi nuclear pattern.

This study analyzed the efficiency of a trunk with branches and a trunk with feeders route system comparing the user cost and operator cost of those route systems. Basically, a trunk with branches is more efficient than a trunk with feeders in the passengers' perspective if the transit system of a trunk and feeders are the same. In the case that the trunk system is hierarchically higher than the feeder system, a trunk with feeders has the competitive edge over a trunk with branches if the saving of travel cost induced by using the trunk line is larger than the increasing waiting and transfer cost. This result is consistent with the previous research by Park et al.(2007c), which analyzed the efficiency of hierarchical structure in a grid transit network. If the travel demand of each origins and destinations is low, increasing headway according to the travel demand can increase passenger load or operating efficiency in a trunk with feeders route system. In this case, a trunk with feeders route system is more prevalent as the operating cost, route length, and number of destinations increases, while it is less prevalent as the transfer cost and passengers' time value of the waiting time increases. In cases that central business district, which is located in the middle of a trunk line, generates travel demand, a trunk with feeders is more efficient than a trunk with branches with the increasing travel demand from and to the CBD. Therefore it can be concluded that to have a dual operating system between CBD and suburban is more efficient than one type transit system. The efficiency of that system can be increased through an efficient transfer system that can reduce the transfer cost.

This study concern with the pattern of Pusan Station shopping district within Pusan City, Korea, one of the special functioned shopping district within Pusan City. This paper will serve as a part of series studies which attempt to clarify the internal structure of Pusan as a whole. Part(II) of this study deals with the functions including living related, restaurants and others. The pattern of floors, size of shops, street corners and widths of streets were also analysed. The results are as follows: 1. In terms of numbers of firms in living related function, Pusan Station shopping district is the $7{\sim}8th$ ranked central place among nine the highest centers within Pusan City. Pusan Station shopping district has not much promoted vertical spatial differentiation comparatively, and also it's intensity of land use is the lower among nine the highest centers. It is presented that intimate relationship between intensity of vertical land use and classes of central places within the city. The ratio of inns and hotels in Pusan Station shopping district is third ranked in Pusan City. And the size of inns and hotels in this area is the most largest among the nine highest ranked central places within Pusan City. These presented that the traditional characteristics of station area as a special functioned shopping district. Inns and hotels mainly located along the narrower and back street. And it forms agglomerated areas or 'an alley of inns' at the inner parts of blocks, some like a 'hidden flower'. In Korea, 'alley' means that an area of specialization gains the prestige, traditionally. 2. Restaurants mainly locate along the narrower and back streets. And agglomerated areas of restaurants coincide with the agglomerated area of drinking places. It shows that these two kinds of functions need the same locational conditions. The ratio of Chinese restaurants is the highest in the Pusan Station shopping district. It's due to the agglomerated area these kinds of restaurants at the 'China town'. 3. Pusan Station shopping district has been formed along the streets within the residential areas. It's means that this shopping district now at the initial or middle growth era in development stage of shopping areas. 4. In general, wholesales and light manufacturing are located at peripheries within shopping district. But in Pusan Station shopping district, it dose not appear these spatial pattern. It shows that this area is lower ranked central place and not much progressed in spatial differentiation. 5. Particular firms which customers and workers have stayed more longer period of time are located at the far from the first floor. This vertical spatial differentiation is similar to the horizontal sequences. 6. Firms which have more ability of rental payment are located at street comers such as banks and pharmacies. In Pusan Station shopping district commercial facilities could not invade into the second third floors at narrower streets and first floor of back streets, still now.

1990년 이후 중국 조선족 사회는 급격한 변화의 소용돌이에 휩싸여있다. 그 핵심에는 조선족 공동체의 총체적인 재구조화가 자리하고 있다. 조선족 집거지로부터 대규모의 이촌 현상이 나타나고 있으며 동북3성에 집중되어 있던 조선족은 전 중국으로 흩어지고 있다. 이러한 조선족의 이동은 조선족 공동체의 해체현상으로 이해되는 경향이 있다. 이 연구는 바로 인구이동이 조선족 사회와 공동체에 어떠한 영향을 주는지에 대한 물음에서 출발한다. 그리고 영향은 이동의 기원지인 농촌과 다양한 목표지의 현황과 조건, 이를 둘러싼 사회경제적 상황을 중심으로 다룬다. 이를 위해 사례연구를 실시하였으며, 필요한 자료는 선택된 마을의 방문과 현지에서의 심층면접을 통해 수집하였다. 연구의 결과는 조선족의 대규모, 원거리 이동이 조선족 공동체의 해체를 뜻하는 것은 아니라는 점을 명백히 보여준다. 인구유출로 도시 또는 조선족 중심지에서 떨어진 농촌 마을에서 공동체의 해체는 빠른 속도로 이루어진다. 그러나 조선족은 새로운 목표지에서는 새로운 유형의 집중현상을 보인다. 한마디로 조선족의 이동은 조선족 사회의 도시화의 경향과 함께, 보다 넓은 지역으로의 공동체의 분산과 공동체내에서의 높은 민족 집중성을 특징으로 전개되고 있다. 또한 조선족 도시 공동체는 거주지역의 격리보다는 민족성을 기초로 한 문화적 정체성에 대한 강조를 특징으로 한다.

최근 기후변화에 따른 수문환경의 변화로 인해 도시지역에 침수피해가 빈번히 발생하고 있으며, 이는 도시화로 인한 인구밀도 증가 및 불투수율이 높아짐으로써 땅속으로 스며들지 못한 빗물이 지표면으로 유출되어 침수피해로 나타나고 있다. 또한, 복잡한 하수관망의 정비와 관리가 어렵다는 점이 침수를 유발하는 원인이 되기도 한다. 강남역과 울산 태화강 침수 피해를 대표적인 예로 들 수 있다. 강남역 일대는 대한민국의 대표적인 상업의 중심지라고 할 수 있으며, 2010년부터 3년간 내수침수가 발생하여 사회적인 이슈가 되었으며, 2016년 울산 및 제주도에서는 제 18호 태풍 차바(CHABA)의 한반도 상륙으로 하천이 범람하고 내수침수가 발생하여 많은 재산 피해를 입혔다. 이처럼 기후변화로 인한 태풍 발생 빈도 증가 및 국지성 호우는 도시지역에 많은 침수피해를 발생시키기 때문에 정확한 침수분석과 취약성 평가를 실시해야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 서울시 강남역 일대를 대상으로 강우-유출모형을 구축하였으며, 기상청에서 제공하는 HadGEM3-RA(12.5km격자자료)를 이용하여 미래 기후변화에 따른 불확실성을 고려한 취약성 평가하였다. 이는 상습침수지역에 대한 근본적인 침수원인을 파악하고 사전에 예방할 수 있는 객관적 평가자료로 활용가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Gyeongju in Saro or Silla one of ancient kingdoms in Yeongnam region of southeast Korea, had been developed as a capital city for thousand years despite its unfavorable geographical location being leaned to the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula. Although this rare case in the world resulted from various facts relevant to political capability and intelligence of the ancient Gyeongju people, the geomorphic characteristics played a key role for its political development. In this paper, we discuss the establishment and growth of ancient kingdoms in Gyeongju area in terms of geomorphological factors such as the Taebaek and Sobaek mountain ranges, distribution of fault lines and alluvial fans along the eastern coast of the peninsula, characteristics of the coastal regions. That is, abundant grain supply from alluvial fans in Gyeongju and surrounding areas, high population-carrying capacity of land and positioning of an ancient supercity were made possible by the geomorphological contributions. Furthermore, Gyeongju could hold the lead in competition with surrounding kingdoms by accumulation of wealth and military superiority derived from production and circulation of salt and iron works. Gyeongju had become the capital of ancient kingdoms due to the geomorphic advantages during the ancient times in Korea.
