People today belong to many different subcultures and have diverse interests. Their job no longer defines who they are, while their pastimes can be a bigger reflection of their inner self. This article examines swing dancers in Korea, and focuses on their self-identity and how they express this through clothes. Based on in-depth interviews, observations and photographs of swing dancers with different day jobs, the study results find that most of the subjects intentionally incorporate swing dance cues in their daily work wardrobe, and that this makes them feel more comfortable, honest and satisfied with their job and identity, both as a swing dancer and working professional.

본 연구는 중학교 1학년 가정과 '옷차림과 자기표현' 단원에 적용할 책만들기를 활용한 문제중심학습 교수 학습 과정안을 개발하고 적용한 후 수업의 효과를 알아보는데 목적을 두었다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 책만들기를 활용한 문제중심학습 교수 학습 과정안, 학생자료 15개, 교사자료 9개를 개발하여 부산광역시 소재의 여자중학교 학생 167명을 대상으로 적용한 후 결과를 분석하였다. 본 수업이 학생들의 신체이미지에 대한 왜곡이나 불만족을 줄여줘 신체이미지를 긍정적으로 변화시킨 것으로 나타났다. 또한 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도에 대해서는 사회적 영향을 덜 받는 것으로 바람직하게 변화되었다. 수업에 대한 학생들의 평가는 수업이 재미있고, 특별나고, 학습자료가 다양하며, 나의 신체에 대해 생각하는 계기가 되었다는 등으로 매우 긍정적이었으나 수업시간의 부족과 과제가 많았다고 하였다. 이상의 결과로 본 교수 학습과정안이 연구의 목적을 달성하는 데 적합한 모형임을 알 수 있었다. 앞으로 교수 학습 과정안의 타당성 검토와 수업시간의 확보를 통한 학습활동이 이루어지도록 하는 후속 연구를 통해 더욱 발전된 책만들기를 활용한 문제중심 학습 교수 학습 과정안이 개발되기를 기대한다.

The culture phenomenon, which the desire of self expression is noticeable and the diversity of gender identity is widely accepted, simply makes a difference in the lifestyle of one human being rather than the dichotomous classification of male and female. Now, the delicate and aesthetic sensitivity classified as the feminine characteristics is no longer the exclusive property of female and this refers to substituting it as a social gender from the concept of biological sex. This phenomenon has influenced on the male culture and is creating various codes according to the cultural gender extended from the gender as a social role. Also, the transition into the western lifestyle has extended the aesthetic emotion to accommodate new codes from the diversification and globalization of lifestyle. The mansumer power, which does not care too much about the money for the emotionally attached items, has enabled various fashion styles. After analyzing the diversified clothing behavior conducted by these people in connection with the social phenomenon, First, this shows the phenomenon of emotional value pursuit that finds pleasure over the clothing as the item of augmented reality is added to the concept of play, in which the real space referred to as garment and virtual space of playing the rock, paper and scissors game meet together within the augmented reality. Second, the convergence concept has enabled the coordination of new style by obscuring the area of design concept and this refers to the changes in design from the development of new items and transformation into double-style details. Third, the divergence that intensively provides specific use/convenience and specialized value shows a change in the fashion market from the phenomenon that admits various gene rations of culture and specifically, takes differently about the recognition of middle-aged males. Fourth, the variety seeking tendency receives attention as the value of future design together with the phenomenon of discriminative value pursuit. In the male fashion, it is linked to the collaboration with the design area and this tells that the fashion with the narcissistic cross-dressing and motto of neutral gender without being sided to male/female is rising.
