To identify "Gongsik", defined as food-sharing by picking food from a common plate using personal utensils, we conducted 7 focus group interviews including 47 university students during a 6 month period. Focus group discussions were audio taped, transcribed, and categorized into major themes. We divided Gongsik into the following categories: practical reasons, socio-psychological reasons, boundaries, suppressive situations, emotional characteristics, attitudes towards using different utensils, and future prospects. Gongsik appeared to be useful for fostering quick food sharing, intimacy and solidarity, and a fixed behavior learned at home. If the amount of food was too small to provide individual servings, as in Jjigae, Gongsik was likely to occur spontaneously. Family, close relatives, friends, and lovers sharing common activities and/ or blood ties were composed the boundaries of Gongsik. However, Gongsik was avoided in elegant restaurants or in view of foreigners. Participants showed mixed feelings towards Gongsik. Gongsik conducted with a spoon was considered to increase the degree of suggested intimacy in a food sharing context. Half of the students believed that the practice of Gongsik would be maintained into the future. Gongsik is a culturally-specific behavior that includes both positive and negative meanings. Aside from improving understanding of the cultural aspects of food-sharing, we suggest that the negative aspects of Gongsik related to the issue of hygiene be considered in food and nutrition education.

The purpose of this study is to develop an online community construct, which proposes an inclusive illustration of the structure of online communities, for online community designers. This study reviewed researches from psychology, sociology, management engineering, and practical reports to understand the characteristics and dynamics of online communities. The proposed online community construct visualizes the cognitive, affective, and behavioral aspects of online community. As the notion of community originates from geographical groups, and with the assumption that geographical community shares identical characteristics with online community, this study reviewed researches about geographical communities as a starting-point. Then the study went through three main perspectives (1) online community attributes, (2) sense of online community and (3) challenges of online community. Then this study proposed an online community construct that encompasses the reviewed frameworks. The online community can be seen as a congregation of members from two sources. One is from the 'Shared Goal' that meets the personal needs. Given the shared goal, members gather into the community without personal relationship and have more chances to feel the sense of belonging to their needs fulfillment or benefit. This befitting tendency leads to strengthening of membership. Public online forums fall under this classification. The other source is from the emotional connections that are already initiated by personal and casual contacts in the real world. The network of emotional connection can evolve into an online congregation of people under faint boundaries. Although there is no (or weak) shared goal, members are strongly bound to other members. Personal homepage or web log (blog) can be classified as an example of relationship-oriented community.

멜로드라마는 주로 여성 취향의 장르로 간주되었기 때문에 남성들의 멜로드라마 시청경험은 거의 주목받지 못했다. 이 연구는 젠더와 장르의 관계라는 측면에서 이들이 멜로드라마를 시청하게 된 배경과 시청방식을 살펴보았으며, 이를 위해 <웃어야 동해야>를 시청하는 중년 남성을 대상으로 심층인터뷰를 실시했다. 이들은 시청과정을 통해 자신에 내재한 여성성을 확인하게 되는데 이에 대응하기 위해서 다양한 전략을 구사하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 구체적으로는 드라마 속의 허구적 현실에서 즐거움을 찾으면서도 이를 여성과 차별화하려 하고, 여성성을 수용하되 다양한 방식으로 합리화하려 하며, 자신의 취향이 여성적이라 불리기를 꺼려하며, 감정에 대한 자기 검열이나 멜로드라마 취향의 평가절하를 통해 거리두기를 시도하며, 드라마시청의 취향을 일상적 실천과 분리하는 등의 양상을 보여준다. 이 탐색적인 연구를 통해 중년 남성들이 멜로드라마 시청과정에서 어떻게 장르와 젠더 경계를 넘나들면서 전통적인 젠더 구분을 재구성하고 있으며, 그 과정에서 전통적인 남성 정체성이 어떻게 검열기제로 작동하는지를 확인할 수 있었다.

Fashion companies are increasingly becoming aware of the importance of Digilog as a response strategy to an emotional stimulus, in order to win the hearts of consumers, because the Digilog provides a new type of emotional value. The features of Digilog found in modern fashion are characterized as follows: first, the "Fashion Image of Hybrid Nature" expresses nature in a new light or reinterprets existing expressions of nature, by using cutting-edge technology based on the psychological desire to return to, adapt with, and harmonize with nature. Second, the "Fashion Image of Nostalgia," which exhibits past forms of regressive fashion, is a fashion code that can be understood as a social trend. It has a digital exterior, with retro materials and old perfumes that reflect psychological comfort, as its expressive medium. Third, the "Lifestyle through the Technique of Interaction" is the sharing of information through consumer participation and delivery, or its interaction. Fourth, the "Fashion Design through the Technique of Customizing" allows consumers to actively participate in the design process. It reflects the consumer's desire to personally design fashion products. Fifth, the "Emotion Sharing through the Technique of Storytelling," which focuses on intangible values, is based on the sentiment of communication between the consumer and the brand, thereby satisfying the inner values as well as the aesthetic demands of consumers. This study confirmed that digital fashion, which uses digital technology based on analog sentiments, has opened up a new environment for fashion culture and has also widened the boundaries of fashion.

This study aims to identify the special features of high-concept funology observed in fashion products and expressional media by exploring funology in an era of high-concept, the emotional paradigm of the 21st century. High-concept funology in today's fashion can be explained as follows: First, 'virtual reality', which is often seen in fashion shows and fashion commercials, enhances consumer participation and involvement with blurred boundaries between the real world and the virtual world. With the expansion of various forms of real-time communication with consumers, positive images of the brand are being projected to the consumers. Second, 'form transformability', which is often found in fashion products, promotes customers' purchase desire as they are able to present themselves in a more versatile way in the fashion product that is changeable in various designs. Third, 'integration of different fields', which is easily found in various fashion goods, engages consumers in a mutual interaction under an entertaining setting with the product that is made to satisfy their needs attuned to their digital lifestyle. Fourth, 'interactive responsiveness', which is mainly recognized in fashion stores and commercials, is characterized by its interactive playfulness that encourages consumer participation through entertainment contents and promotes brand intimacy, eventually adding more value to its name.

본 논문은 인간의 다양한 활동이 펼쳐지고 있는 공간과 장소의 특징에 따른 유기적 관계의 현상을 살펴보는데 목적을 갖고 있다. 그에 따른 인간의 다양한 경험의 확산과 상호구축망을 형성하는 공간과 장소의 상호작용은 개인 또는 집단적 경험의 확장성을 마련하는 계기를 조성한다. 인간 활동의 상호작용을 이끌어내는 공간과 장소는 다양하게 표출되고 있다. 특히, 국내 여행프로그램을 통해서 공간과 장소의 표현방식은 다양한 '경험의 장'으로 확산되고 있는 추세이다. 그에 따른 여행프로그램의 구성과 표현방식은 기존의 기행적 스타일을 벗어나 생각하고, 사고할 수 있는 '체험의 장' 문화의 형성을 통해 공간과 장소가 단순한 경험이 아닌 사유의 대상으로 변모되고 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 MBC 플러스 채널의 <어서와 한국은 처음이지?> 여행 프로그램을 통해서 표출되고 있는 공간과 장소성이 갖고 있는 체험을 통해서 표출되는 사회문화적 관점에서의 특징을 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 스토리 전개구성 분석결과는 공간과 장소의 체험은 음식과 커뮤니케이션의 삼중적 관계에 따른 다양한 문화적 할인의 경계가 최소화되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 미이어 소통 구조의 분석결과는 주체와 대상간의 공감상황, 공감주체, 공감도구, 공감내용을 통해서 리얼리티의 효과를 극대화하고, 문화적 차이와 경계의 간극을 최소화하는 과정을 통해서 수용자의 감성코드를 전달하는 것으로 분석된다.
