Traditional music not only reveals Korean culture to foreigners but also it enhances the pride of national identity for Koreans themselves. Objectives of this study are how can we encourage and appreciate traditional music to ordinary visitors (non-musicians). Music festivals could be a means to educate and captivate them towards the appreciation of Korean traditional music. For this purpose, this study checked the satisfaction level between local residents and domestic visitors(including foreigners) concerning music festival programs, and also proposed a practical implications to traditional music organizers. According to the result, local visitors' satisfaction level were higher than other domestic visitors. Visitors showed higher interest in the music instruments like a 'Gayageum' they are able to relate to, rather than with other traditional unfamiliar musical instruments. It is thus crucial to encourage students and ordinary citizens to interact with traditional music instruments so as to enhance the satisfaction levels of domestic visitors. Some practical implications for traditional music organizers are that it is recommendable to have more guides who have thorough knowledge of traditional Korean music and who is able to interpret festival programs in foreign languages for foreign visitors.

The number of foreign qualification holders has been on the rise due to the globalization and the development of transportation. As in other developed nations, Korea faces the growing demand for foreign higher education recognition (FHER) since the number of foreign students and migrant workers has reached about one million recently. Unfortunately, there has been no FHER system in Korea so far. In this context, this study has compared the cases of Australia and New Zealand. The results reveal that these two countries are similar in that both of them have developed their own FHER system in order to attract highly qualified foreign workers and students. However, they are different in terms of the implementation of the FHER system and the development of the FHER database. Besides, the cases of both countries shed light on the key issues related to the FHER. Taken together, they provide significant implications for the Korean government which has to develop its own FHER system in the near future.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the cultural sensitivity and stereotype about immigrant women among hospital nurses. Method: Data were collected using convenient sampling from Dec. 2012 to Mar. 2013. Subjects were 122 nurses who have worked at general hospital located in Chungchoeng area. Result: The mean age of subjects was 33.85 years old. Average working period was 8.28 years. 67.2% of subjects had have experiences to travel abroad, and most of them were short travel within 1 month. 94.3% of subjects had no experience of multi-cultural education and many subjects(73%) reported that multi-cultural education was needed. On the other hand, 88.5% of them met immigrant women at their work places. So nurses were confronted with foreign patients without proper education. Conclusion: It suggested that to prepare for the coming era of globalization, an educational programs that increase the cultural sensitivity of nurses should be developed.

한국을 방문하는 외국인들은 매년 증가하고 있고 방한 목적 중 식도락관광이 3위에 오를 만큼 세계에서 한국 음식은 위상이 높아지고 있다. 하지만, 한국에서의 알레르기 성분 표시는 법적 의무가 아니기 때문에 대부분의 한식당에서는 이를 표시하지 않고 있고 알레르기가 있는 외국인 관광객들은 한국 음식 섭취에 있어서 상당한 위험과 불편함을 부담하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 머신러닝을 활용하여 사진 촬영만으로 쉽고 정확하게 알레르기 성분을 제공하고자 사물 이미지 데이터 전처리를 위한 HSV(Hue, Saturation, Value) 데이터 전처리 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 이미지의 HSV의 평균 및 분산, 표준편차를 통해 불필요한 데이터를 제거한다. 성능평가에서는 비빔밥, 불고기, 제육볶음 등 사진 약 500장의 데이터 셋을 구성하여 HSV의 평균 및 분산을 통해 이미지를 제거하는 방식으로 구축한 데이터 셋을 TensorFlow를 통해 정확도와 학습시간을 측정한다. 측정결과, 제안하는 기법으로 구축한 데이터 셋은 최소 15%에서 최대 25% 높은 정확도와 최소 37.96%에서 최대 42.85% 높은 정도 낮은 학습시간을 보여주었다. 향후 HSV를 활용한 데이터 전처리 기법은 더 많은 데이터를 통해 더욱 구체적인 성능 분석이 필요하다. 또한, 실질적인 개발 및 구현을 통해 제안하는 데이터 전처리 기법의 더욱 현실적인 검증이 필요하다.

This study was to investigate the elasticity in tourism demand of Chinese tourists visiting Malaysia through ARDL models by using Chinese tourists arrivals, GDP, CPI, transportation costs and others. When China was implementing an open-door policy with foreign countries in the early 15th century, the movement of Chinese was very limited, and then communication between China and other countries was very weak. However, the Chinese government persistently and entirely implemented an open-door policy by participating in the World Trade Organization(WTO) in 2001. The Chinese government has opened the economy through foreign direct investment by providing various incentives for foreign investment. As a result, inbound and outbound Chinese movements increased in the early 21st century. China was one of the top five most visited tourist destinations in the world by 2016, and also Chinese tourists traveling abroad increased, so they made Malaysia a popular tourists destination because of increase sharply to around 1.41 million. This study examined the significance of major economic factors affecting the increase in Chinese tourists arriving in Malaysia. Other factors that induced their arrival included income, tourism prices, transportation costs and promotional activities. Short-run shocks from the Asian economic crisis and the outbreak of SARS were included to understand how tourism demand in Malaysia was affected. Finally this study found that the combination of the ARDL and the Error Correction Model were useful to statistically estimate the elasticities of tourism demand.

Medical tourism refers to visiting overseas to receive medical services and tourism at the same time. In other words, it can be said that it is a tourism activity that combines medical service, various cultural activities, leisure, and shopping. As such, medical tourism is not limited to simple medical services, but is a new high-value-added industry that creates new profits by fusion with tourism services. Many countries are making continuous efforts to foster their own tourism industry by attracting foreign tourists. Therefore, in order to secure competitiveness in dental services among the medical tourism industry in Korea, this study was to examine the relationship between dentist's treatment, hospital facilities, dental staff, and patient satisfaction. As a result, it was found that the dentist's treatment had a positive effect on both the staff of the dental facility in the hospital and the satisfaction of the patient.
