This study was carried out to assess the distribution and pollution level of organic matters and nutrients in surface sediments of the Yeongsan River Basin. The surface sediments were collected from the mainstream (12) and tributaries sites (4) for two years from 2015 to 2016, and the particle sizes, organic matters (Ignition Loss, COD, TOC) and nutrients (TN, TP, SRP) were analyzed. The distribution of particle sizes was dominated by sand in the upstream sites (MS1-MS7) and by silt loam in the downstream sites (MS8-MS12), but MS3 and MS6, located slightly upstream of the two weirs, were found to be mostly loamy sand and silt loam, respectively. As a results of the correlation assessment, the organic matters (IL, COD, TOC) were strongly correlated with particle sizes, while the nutrients (TP, SRP) were weak except for TN. The concentrations of organic matter and nutrient were higher at the downstream and the sites nearby the two weirs (MS3, MS6). In particular, the TP concentration at the MS3 site sampled in the second half period of the years was higher than that in the first half periods. Comparing of sediments criteria, the organic matters and nutrients were evaluated to have almost no toxic effects at all sites.

한국에서의 유가(儒家) 경전의 수용은 삼국시대에 시작되었으며, 이는 신라(新羅)시대 태학(太學) 교육 중의 한 과목이 "상서(?書)"였다는 "삼국사기(三國史記)"의 기록을 통해 알 수 있다. "상서(?書)"는 고대 정치제도 및 정치사상과 매우 긴밀한 관련을 갖는 경전인 까닭에 중국뿐만 아니라 한국에서도 통치자들의 시정방침(施政方針)상의 중요한 근간(根幹)이 되었다. 이러한 연유로 "상서(?書)" 연구를 통해서 경서 내용을 알게 될 뿐만 아니라 그 시대의 정치사상도 알 수 이해하게 될 것이다. 그런데 한국에 있어서 경학 연구는 중국과 달리 전통적 사서오경(四書五經) 혹은 십삼경(十三經)이 아니라 "사서삼경(四書三經)"을 중심으로 전개되었다. 또한 개별 경전에 대한 연구를 기준으로 살펴보면, "사서(四書)"의 경우, 특히 "논어(論語)"에 대한 연구가 집중적으로 이루어졌다. 삼경(三經)의 경우, "주역(周易)"이나 "시경(詩經)"은 이미 많은 연구가 이루어졌으나, 한국에서 "상서(?書)" 연구는 아직 전자만큼 활발히 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 또한 성균관대학교에 발간한 "한국경학자료집성(韓國經學資料集成)"을 살펴보면, 한국 경학 저술 총 145권 가운데 "상서(?書)" 부분이 22권을 차지하고 있다. 즉 거의 6분의 1이 "상서(?書)" 관련 저술이라고 할 수 있다. 본고는 "학술총람"과 공구서(工具書) 전자 시스템에 수록된 1901년부터 2014년 상반기에 이르기까지의 100여 년 동안 한국(韓國)에서 발표된 "상서(?書)" 관련 학술단행본 학위논문 학술지논문 등을 검토하고, 이를 통해 한국에서의 "상서(?書)"학(學) 연구(硏究)를 회고(回顧)하고 또 그 미래를 전망(展望)해 보도록 할 것이다. 전적으로 보면 한국 "상서(?書)"학 연구는 3가지를 포함한다. 첫째는 한국에서 중국 고전 "상서(?書)" 원전(原典)에 대한 탐구(探究)인데 이를 '중국 "상서(?書)" 연구' 라고 칭하였다. 둘째는 조선시대 유학자의 서경 저술을 중점 대상으로 연구하는 것으로 이를 '한국 "서경"학 연구'라고 이름 하였다. 셋째는 한국 이외 다른 나라 학자들의 조선시대 "서경" 저술에 대한 연구이다. 이상 3가지를 모두 대상으로 삼아야 온전한 한국 "상서(?書)"학 연구라고 할 수 있을 것이다. 향후의 연구 방향은 다음 네 가지로 정리할 수 있다: (1) 역본의 연구 (2)학파별 연구 (3)문헌적 연구 (4)경연과 과거시험의 각 나라 비교 연구이다. 한국 "서경"학에 대한 연구를 통해 우리는 조선시대의 사상과 문화 특히 정치사상을 파악할 수 있으며 또한 전통시대 동아시아 각국의 학문 양상까지도 인식할 수 있을 것이다. 요컨대, 아직까지 한국의 학계에서 한국 "서경"학을 중심으로 하여 이러한 측면을 밝히는 연구는 부족한 편이라고 할 수 있겠으며, 그렇기에 연구할 영역이 더욱 많은 셈이라고도 할 수 있는 것이다. 바로 이 연구영역들에 더욱 심혈을 기울여 앞으로 더 깊이 있고 폭 넓은 연구가 진행되기를 기대할 수 있게 되는 것이다.

South Korea's newly branded musical industry 'K-Musical' is currently booming. The growth of K-Musical can be attributed to the popularity of other industries in the Korean wave, namely K-Pop and Korean dramas. With the inclusion of K-Musicals into the Korean wave, it is beginning to standout on its own as a cultural brand. In the first half of 2012, the popularity of K-Musicals grew 24%, higher than any other performance industry. Moreover, this industry grew 20% in the latter half of 2012 and grew to 300 billion won in 2013. One reason for this growth can be attributed to the increased output of musicals of Korean origin in large-scale theatres dedicated solely to musicals. This has became to necessary foundation for the export of korean musicals abroad. Now is a critical time for Korean musicals to expand to other countries in order to become the hub of Asia for musical industries. 2012 and 2013 saw the greatest increase in the export of musicals to Japan and China. The musical sales in 2018 totaled 257.1 billion won, an increase of 29% over the previous year. Therefore, understanding the importance of these two markets is pivotal in the continued sustainable growth of K-Musicals. This paper seeks to highlights the importance of becoming the canter of Asia musicals and to offer strategies to lead Korea's musical industry toward this goal.

This study aimed to identify the change in the public perception of "bats" after the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. Text mining and network analysis were conducted for blog posts, the largest social network in Korea. We collected 9,241 Naver blog posts from 2019 to 2020 just before the outbreak of COVID-19 in Korea. The data were analyzed with Python and NetMiner 4.3.2, and the public's perception of bats was examined through the relationship of keywords by period. Findings indicated that the frequency of bat keywords in 2020 increased more than 25 times compared to 2019, and the centrality value increased more than three times. The perception of bats changed before and after the outbreak of the pandemic. Prior to COVID-19, bats were highly recognized as a species of wildlife while in the first half of 2020, they were strongly considered as a threat to human society in relation to infectious diseases and health. In the second half of 2020, it was confirmed that the area of interest in bats expanded as the proportion of ecological and cultural types ofresearch increased. This study seeks to contribute to the expansion and direction of future research in bats by understanding the public's interest in the potential impact of the species as disease hosts post the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Small Scale magNetospheric and Ionospheric Plasma Experiment (SNIPE)'s scientific goal is to observe spatial and temporal variations of the micro-scale plasma structures on the topside ionosphere. The four 6U CubeSats (~10 kg) will be launched into a polar orbit at ~500 km. The distances of each satellite will be controlled from 10 km to more than ~1,000 km by the formation flying algorithm. The SNIPE mission is equipped with identical scientific instruments, Solid-State Telescopes(SST), Magnetometers(Mag), and Langmuir Probes(LP). All the payloads have a high temporal resolution (sampling rates of about 10 Hz). Iridium communication modules provide an opportunity to upload emergency commands to change operational modes when geomagnetic storms occur. SNIPE's observations of the dimensions, occurrence rates, amplitudes, and spatiotemporal evolution of polar cap patches, field-aligned currents (FAC), radiation belt microbursts, and equatorial and mid-latitude plasma blobs and bubbles will determine their significance to the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere interaction and quantify their impact on space weather. The formation flying CubeSat constellation, the SNIPE mission, will be launched by Soyuz-2 at Baikonur Cosmodrome in 2023.

This research paper studied the effect of corporate CEO's image on brand value. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the change in corporate value following the legal arrest of Samsung Electronics CEO. To demonstrate the legal restraint of Samsung Electronics CEO and change in brand value, the argument was made based on analysis data evaluated by the Korea Industrial Policy Institute and Interbrand. In the case of Samsung Electronics, even in 2017 after CEO Lee Jae-yong was arrested, the brand value of Samsung Electronics rose 9% from the previous year to reach $56.2 billion. In 2020, it ranked fifth, and in the first half of 2021, while CEO Lee Jae-yong was arrested, Samsung Electronics ranked fifth in value. In this study, Samsung Electronics' production and brand value continued to rise after the 2000s regardless of the CEO's legal restraint. As a result of this study, Samsung Electronics revealed that the company's management and brand value have been established regardless of the legal restraint of the CEO.

In this review, we examine the latest technological developments in the utilization of truffles, a gourmet ingredient reputed to be one of the "world's three greatest delicacies," considering changing global consumption trends. Global demand for truffles is expected to increase steadily, with an average annual growth rate of 8.9% from 2023 to 2030. As truffles are expensive, the demand for truffles is expected to be concentrated in developed countries such as the United States, European countries, and Japan. In Korea, truffles are utilized in various industries, including food, functional foods, and cosmetics. Korean consumer demand for truffles has consistently remained high since 2019, and truffle products have been performing well in the market. Consequently, there exists substantial potential demand for newly developed truffle-related products and technologies. This review aims to provide objective research information through the systematic analysis of patent applications in Korea and internationally, focusing on technologies involving truffles, and can aid in setting directions for research and development.

The outlook for Korea's consumer price inflation rate has a profound impact not only on the Bank of Korea's operation of the inflation target system but also on the overall economy, including the bond market and private consumption and investment. This study presents the prediction results of consumer price inflation in Korea for the next three years. To this end, first, model selection is performed based on the out-of-sample predictive power of autoregressive distributed lag (ADL) models, AR models, small-scale vector autoregressive (VAR) models, and large-scale VAR models. Since there are many potential predictors of inflation, a Bayesian variable selection technique was introduced for 12 macro variables, and a precise tuning process was performed to improve predictive power. In the case of the VAR model, the Minnesota prior distribution was applied to solve the dimensional curse problem. Looking at the results of long-term and short-term out-of-sample predictions for the last five years, the ADL model was generally superior to other competing models in both point and distribution prediction. As a result of forecasting through the combination of predictions from the above models, the inflation rate is expected to maintain the current level of around 2% until the second half of 2022, and is expected to drop to around 1% from the first half of 2023.

BACKGROUND: Contamination of soils by heavy metals is the serious environmental problem. In particular, industrial processing is one of the main sources of heavy metal contamination. The objective of this study was to investigate the distribution characteristics of heavy metals in soils collected from industrial complex. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, the soil contamination and enrichment factor (EF) of heavy metals were investigated in three national industrial complexes such as Yeosu, Ulsan and Sihwa Banwal industrial complexes. The target heavy metals includes Cd, Cu, As, Hg, Pb, Cr, Zn, and Ni. The results showed that the contents of Cd, Hg, Pb, Zn and Ni in Yeosu and the contents of Cu, As and Cr in Sihwa Banwal were higher than in any other industrial complex. The results of principal component analysis(PCA) in Yeosu, Ulsan and Sihwa Banwal complex could be explained up to approximately 81.4, 69.1 and 70.9% by two factor, respectively. Enrichment factors of Cd, Pb and Zn in all the investigated industrial complexes were above 1.0 that was the value judged to be a high contamination. And EF of Cr was above 1.0 in Sihwa Banwal complex. EF of Zn in all sites was generally high from the other heavy metals. CONCLUSION: Therefore, soils maybe significantly affected by heavy metals (especially, Cd, Pb and Zn) present in the emissions from industrial complexes.
