The conspiracy theories of political events are occurring in every country and society. In Korean society, conspiracy theories about political events are constantly happening. Conspiracy refers to the phenomenon of a particular individual or group who oppose the official causes of social phenomena. Conspiracy is a resistance to the credibility of the state and the government. In Korean society, conspiracy occurs mainly in political events. The conspiracy theories of political events appear in the form of conservatism and progressivism, which seeks to replace political power and political power to stabilize political power. The conspiracy theory about Jang Jun-Ha's death occurred in the process of seeking justification for a person who is resisting the ruling forces. Also, the conspiracy theory of the Gwangju Democratization Movement and the Cheonan Warship Sinking may be a drag on the justification for the justification for the takeover of the new military government and the justification for the Disconnection of inter-Korean relations. In Korean politics, Conspiracy theory is a factor that confuses Korean society regardless of whether it is true or not.

Conspiracy theory is often considered as a kind of paranoid and an act of throwing all the blame solely on the Big Other who is presumed to control all the incidents behind the curtain. While, it is also assessed as a socio-political sub-culture and a way of interpreting the world full of closure and insufficient information, keeping us from grasping 'the totality'. Meanwhile recent conspiracy films reflect the ever dense and concealed anatomy of the world now. And it reveals some kind of ideological tendency which is, 'sense of catastrophe' and 'non-ideology' reflecting the world of late capitalism society. This article intends to examine the altered representational appearance and ideology in recent conspiracy films so as to understand how the conspiracy theory, the social-political interpretational mechanism, is converged into the film narrative against the backdrop of late capitalism, a socio-political condition we live in.

많은 국내 기업들이 중국으로부터 되돌아 오지만, 한편으로 더 많은 기업들이 중국으로 진출하고 있다는 사실은 중국에 대한 관심을 단적으로 짐작하게 한다. 중국의 GDP(국내총생산)는 1978년 개혁 이후 22년간 연평균 9.5% 이상의 고도성장을 이루었으며, 2000년을 기점으로 1조 달러를 넘어섰다. G7의 나라별 GDP규모가 대체로 1조 달러를 넘어선다는 것으로 이 수치의 의미를 알 수 있다. 중국이 미국과 같은 수준에 도달하는 시점에 대해, 지금과 같은 8%의 경제성장률을 지속적으로 유지할 경우 2050년이 될 것이라고 예상한다. 학자에 따라서는 이보다 훨씬 이른 2020년이라고 예측하기도 하지만, 여하튼 중국은 건국 100주년이 되는 2050년에 미국에 버금가는 세계의 경제강국이 되겠다는 목표를 갖고 있다. 여기에서 흥미로운 사실은 아시아 경제위기 발생 이후 미국과 중국이 세계경제 속에서 차지하는 위상이 뚜렷이 동반 상승했다는 것이다. 당시 일부에서는 미국이 중국을 견제하기 위해 투기성 자금을 동원, 아시아 금융위기를 고의로 터뜨렸다는 소위 음모론을 제기하기도 했지만, 어쩌면 세계경제가 조만간 미국과 중국의 '쌍끌이'에 의해 움직일 가능성도 높아지고 있다. 청도는 이러한 중국 경제성장의 중추적인 역할을 담당하는 도시이며, 이미 지난 호에서 청도의 경제상황과 역사, 그리고 도시와 건축을 살펴보았다. 이번 호와 다음 호에는 (주)무영종합건축사사무소의 합자회사 설립과정과 운영, 전망, 그리고 진행 프로젝트를 소개할 것이다. 먼저, 합자회사인 TMI의 설립과정과 운영, 그리고 첫 프로젝트인 양광해안 주거단지에 대해 살펴보기로 한다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the timing of sexual maturation and secular trends of menarchial age in Korean adolescents. Methods : Nine hundred eighty two school students and 119 university female students were included. Tanner's pubertal assessment method was applied using a self-assessment sheet with pictures for their developmental stages. A medical checkup database from 1,156,022 women was also used to analyze the age of menarche from the year 1900 to 1980. Results : Onset of puberty was at $11.3{\pm}1.3$ years(y) in girls and $12.1{\pm}1.5$ y in boys and total pubertal duration was 3.6 y in girls and 3.3 y in boys. Height at the onset of puberty was $146.1{\pm}7.9cm$ in girls and $152.7{\pm}9.8cm$ in boys. Weight at the onset of puberty was $39.3{\pm}6.9kg$ in girls and $47.7{\pm}14.4kg$ in boys. The mean age of menarche was $12.0{\pm}1.0y$ and mean age at nocturnal emission was $12.3{\pm}1.8y$. By age ten, 3.0 percent of girls experienced menarche, which increased to 41.1 percent by age 12, and 98.0 percent by age over 15. By SMR 2 breast stage, 18.2 percent of girls experienced menarche, which increased to 66.1 percent and 91.7 percent by SMR stages 3 and 4, respectively. By SMR 2 pubic hair stage, 52.0 percent and by SMR 3, 93.8 percent of girls experienced menarche. While the menarchial age of women born around 1980 was $12.4{\pm}1.1y$, the menarchial age of women born around 1990 was $12.0{\pm}1.1y$. Age at menarche has been advanced approximately by 2 years between 1900 and 1980 birth cohorts. Conclusion : There was a downward secular trend in pubertal timing. Age at menarche has been advanced by 2 years during the last 80 years. Further large scale, prospective studies, including inspection by specialists, are needed to provide reference data for pubertal timing in Korean adolescents.
