This study conducted a questionnaire survey using the Google questionnaire on 285 college students over 20 years old who attended universities in Chungnam to investigate the personal quarantine attitude of college students according to COVID-19. As a result, the attitude of washing hands, coughing etiquette, wearing a mask, and keeping distance under running water for more than 30 seconds scored high. However, when the mask was removed, the method of storing the mask or disinfecting surrounding objects such as desks at school was insufficient. Therefore, the attitude of personal quarantine should be more emphasized in the national quarantine system as a basic policy for preventing the spread of COVID-19 in the future and ending the virus.

This study applied LDA topic modeling analysis to collect and analyze news media big data related to face masks in the three waves of the COVID-19 pandemic in Korea. The results empirically show that media reports focused on mask production and distribution policies in the first wave and the mandatory mask wearing in the second wave. In contrast, more reports on trivial, gossipy events consist of the media coverage in the second and third waves. The findings imply that Korea's governmental interventions to address the shortage of face masks and to regulate mask wearing were successful relatively in a short time. In contrast, the study also reports that there may be relative less number of science-based news reports like the ones on the effectiveness of face masks or different levels of filter types. This study exemplifies how a big data analysis can be applied to evaluate and enhance public health communication.
