Their folk culture had been formed with the effect of East-northern Asia and cultural exchange with Japanese through the northern trade during 17 -18 centuries. It can be ascertained from the typical festival food and clothing. clothing style and the ornaments of Ainu people. The basics of Ainu people are composed of an unfolding clothes which men and women had wort in one-piece style even though they had lived in the northernmost cold climate. Atousi is their typical clothing which had been made of the grass fiber. Ainu people had imported the old cotton clothes from the trading with the mainland roughly in the late E-do (late 18 century). Ainu's clothing is divided broadly into Aiusi and Moreu pattern. Ainu people had decorated their back, shoulder, collar, burial clothes, waist and hem by changing and mixing them. These are the expression of their desire to prevent themselves from the wicked plot or the devil. There is no similar Ainu patterns or skill in Kimono, while it is known to be rather related to the area of Amur River, Sakhalin, and the distant Mongolia. Therefore, the traditional pattern of Ainu should be the continental conception which had been skilfully shaped through the trading with the north adding the series of Ainu People.

본 연구의 목적은 두가지 인조섬유 산업, 즉 합성섬유 산업(SITC 266)과 재생섬유 산업(SITC 267)에 있어서, 산업내 무역의 결정요인을 조사하는데 있다. 20개의 주요 인조섬유 수출 국가들을 대상으로 1977, 1982, 1987년의 세 시기에 거힉 자료가 수집되었다. 국제무역 유형을 알아보기 위해 산업내 무역 모델이 사용되었고 종속 변인으로 Grubel-Lloyd지수가 사용되었다. 산업내 무역 을 결정하는 독립변인으로는 국가특성 변인, 국가간 변인, 산업특성 변인의 세 종류가 쓰였다. 국가 특성 변인에는 시장규모, 일인당 소득, 자본-노동 비율 변인들이 사용되었고, 국가간 변인으로는 국가간 거리, 인접국경, 공통언어, 동일 경제블럭 변인들이 사용되었다. 산업특성 변인에는 규모의 경제와 제품차별성 변인들이 쓰였다. 자료의 분석을 위해서는 비선형자승 방법이 이용되었다. 본 연구의 결과, 일인당 소득과 자본-노동의 비율 변인들은 인조섬유의 산업내 무역에 중요하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 시장규모, 국가간 거리, 인접국경, 규모의 경제, 제품차별성 변인들은 모든 시기에 걸켜 산업내 무역에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 공통언어 사용과 동일 경제블럭 변인들도 대부분의 시기에 인조섬유의 산업내 무역에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide a basis for establishing a policy to promote the export of Korean goods through the economic ripple effect of the Korean Wave. From 2001 to 2017, cultural goods exports and consumer goods exports data to 102 countries were used to estimate the effect of cultural goods exports on domestic consumer goods exports. Research design, data and methodology: Based on the Gravity Model, we analyzed the effects of domestic film, publishing, music, broadcasting, clothing, cosmetics, processed food, IT products, and automobiles on the export of consumer goods. Results: The empirical analysis estimated the trade creation effect of exports of cultural products driving exports of consumer goods and found that a 1% increase in exports of cultural products increased 0.136% in exports of consumer goods. Conclusions: The average rate of change in consumer goods exports due to changes in cultural product exports was 22.44, which could be interpreted as an increase of $2,244 in exports of consumer goods such as IT products, cosmetics, clothing, and processed foods. According to the analysis of export-driven effects of each consumer item by dividing cultural products by sector, the effects of export of processed foods, clothing, cosmetics, IT products, and film, music, publishing exports were statistically significant.

The purpose of this study is to organize how the deceased are clothed. Although there are many people who have seen the dead clothed once or twice and although the clothing has been constantly going on, there have been no books or studies on how the deceased are clothed. Instead, the methods have only been handed down orally by seniors and others who are experienced in it. I see the necessity of systematizing the method of clothing the deceased so that both ordinary people as well as experts can utilize it properly to show their sincerity and courtesy towards the dead. This study is based on literature including old books, dissertations, publications, and reports on ethnic customs. It also refers from interview results of shrouds makers, those experienced in clothing the dead, and seniors knowledgeable in the trade. Funeral manifested the social status of the dead. Shrouds of the olden days had different colors, such as white, black, blue, red, etc. according to items. However, nowadays they are white, pink, or partially light blue or sometimes people just keep the colors of their original cloths. Current items do not differ much from those of the ancient times, though Kwadu, Km, and Po, which were used to cover the belly, have been relatively simplified. The form of shrouds has changed nowadays. There are differences in the funeral procedures and how the deceased are clothed. In the olden days, when a person died, the body was cleaned up and clothed the very next after death. Nowadays, the cleansing and clothing of the body and placing the body in the coffin are all done together the following day. According to the foregoing, though there are no big differences in the way the deceased are clothed between the olden days and the present, the order in which Aksu and B누 are placed, differs and the procedures, items and shape have been simplified.
