The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of counselors who conducted video counseling using digital mask. To this end, the contents of the focus group interview with four counselors who experienced mask video counseling for a total of 10 Korean college student clients were analyzed using thematic analysis method. Participant counselors reported that they had been concerned about mask video counseling before the start but gradually be adjusted to the method. Since they have observed the rapid self-disclosure of the clients and smooth counseling process, they positively predicted the possibility of digital masks as a therapeutic media. They also mentioned the need for additional education and training for the counselors who are using the new on-line counseling media. Therefore, various supports for proactive responses of counselors to online counseling media need to be explored.

The purpose of this study is to find out how on-line counseling modalities (phone, video, and video counseling using digital mask) differ from face-to-face counseling in terms of clients' perception of working alliance, depth and smoothness of each session, satisfaction, and their qualitative counseling experience. 40 university students participated in the experiment, divided into 4 groups, received 3 personal counseling sessions per person. The quantitative data revealed no significant difference among the four counseling groups in working alliance. Also, the "depth" of the session was similar in the four groups, but phone and video with mask counseling group who did not expose their faces showed higher "smoothness" in the first and second sessions than face-to-face counseling group, indicating that anonymity was helping the clients' inhibition overcome. Through the post-interview data, subtle differences in experience of each counseling method were identified by the participants. The results are expected to provide primary information for developing and implementing various online counseling modalities in the future.

"대학졸업반인 24살인 S양. 때가 때인 만큼 고민이 많다. 머리도 식힐 겸 친구들과 영화한편 보러 극장에 갔다가, 운세도 보고 여러 정보 콘텐츠를 판다는 한 이상한 자판기(?)를 발견했다. 호기심에 돈을 넣고 운세를 접속을 하니 화상으로 한 역술인과 연결이 되었다. S양은 현재 고민 중인 진로상담부터 언제 좋은 남자를 만날 수 있을지 까지 자신의 관심사를 속 시원하게 운세상담을 했다. 또 타 메뉴 중에 있는 성형상담 콘텐츠도 접속을 해 한 유명 성형외과 상담의와 '외모업그레이드'방안에 대해서도 상담을 했다." 세상에 이런 자판기도 존재 하냐고? 가상의 시나리오가 아니다. 이런 상황은 화상상담자판기에 의해 흔하게 구현될 전망이다. 이미 화상운세 콘텐츠는 일부 설치된 자판기를 통해 서비스가 되고 있다. 이런 화제의 자판기를 선보인 곳은 예언이란 업체이다. 예언은 운세는 물론 다양한 상담 콘텐츠를 제공하는 정보 콘텐츠 자판기 분야로 '야심만만'한 꿈을 꾸고 있다.

This study aims to identify the effects and traits of narrative online group counseling for college students by comparing them with face-to-face group counseling. For this purpose, 18 college students were assigned as experimental group (videoconferencing method, using "Zoom"), comparison group (face-to-face method), and control group (no treatment). 8 sessions of narrative group counseling program was conducted for two groups. The difference between pre- and post test scores of 'self-identity' and 'relationship' showed significant improvement in 'self-identity' in both experimental and comparison groups, while positive change in 'relationship' was only significant in the experimental group. The traits of online group counseling experience were identified by comparing the post-interview data asking about their counseling experiences. In conclusion, we found that despite the various limitations, the context of online group counseling showed similar effects to face-to-face group counseling, and suggested a direction for the development of online group counseling.

There is an authentication method for participants with an encrypted ID and password as a symmetric-key in multilateral video conferencing. It is hard to manage when the security-keys makes many while the transportation processing for the encryption and decryption get complicated when the video conferencing involves a number of participants and the third party as an attackers to gain unauthorized symmetric-key to access video conference which makes a problem less secrecy. This study suggests three ways to enhance security in video conference: first, we present PKI-based X.509 certificate for authenticating the participants of multilateral conferencing and we suggest to encode and decode the video conference media data using a secrecy key created by each of the conference participants; second, a more secured multilateral video conferencing can be expected in a group communication by using the participants secrecy key in creating and distributing group keys, where the group key will be renewed whenever there is change in the group member; and finally, we suggest to encode the RTP payload of the media data before transmission.

This study attempts to explain phenomenologically the shadow work that occurs among Kwangju·Jeonnam business support counselors as video consultation increases due to the counseling management systems used in business consulting for SMEs and digital transformation since COVID-19. Since digital shadow work is widespread, it has been considered basic and mandatory work, not recognized as shadow work itself, assuming that it is continuously used for a long time. We found that, in the case of the newly expanded video consulting systems, most of the users complain of burden and inconvenience and tend to choose face-to-face despite the time and cost savings associated with the former. These study results practically suggest that, in order to implement such digital systems successfully, a well-prepared system, an elaborate way of reducing the burden and inconvenience, and an adaptation period are considered critical as they can minimize the shadow work of users.

In order to help them to use the Internet properly, a study on development and application of Internet-addiction healing program using video communications was conducted and proved fruitful. The eight-session program was performed on students categorized into the high risk group for about three weeks(three times a week). After the completion of the program, the students took a self-test and the changes of the scores were analyzed. Furthermore, qualitative analysis was performed on counseling process to compensate for the reliability reduction posed by limited sampling. This study can be summarized as follows. First, the symptoms of teen Internet addiction were alleviated. The effectiveness of the application of the program was verified by the fact that all the subjects were categorized into the general user group from the high risk group. Second, in the six sub-regions of the Internet-addiction self-testing, the scores changed positively. Third, the students were actively engaged in the counseling process due to the fact that the Internet addiction healing program by means of video communications had aroused their interests.

Counselling between a patient and a doctor is crucial in telemedicine. In order for the doctor to examine the patient accurately, it needs an auscultation, at least. Currently, some video conference systems are implemented but it is hard to use them in the case of an cardiac disorder, because the patients suffering from cardiac disorder cannot be examined by a stethoscope over Internet. To solve this problem, the remote counselling service has to support real time transmission of the heart sound of the patient. In this paper, we present a remote counselling system with stethoscope. We also design and implement the system in order for health monitor to connect the patient with his attending physician for the environment of u-healthcare service. The proposed system supports a mobility for doctor and patient by exchanging IP addresses at an user authentication protocol. The system implemented by this paper can be used for cardiac patients in remote clinical setting in the future.
