HunMinJeongEum, meaning "the right sound to teach the people," was created in 1443 CE by King Sejong the Great, the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty. In today's modern language, this letter, called Hangeul, is internationally recognized for its linguistic science. However, it is hard to find a comprehensive study on the fact that King Sejong himself created Hangeul, the Confucian perspective on natural disasters and democracy revealed in the process of writing, the independent efforts emphasized from a certain period, and the achievements of King Sejong, who shared the sorrow of the people and carried out national policies despite the extreme opposition of the nobility. Accordingly, I analyzed the consonants of HunMinJeongEum and looked at the essence of humanity and oriental philosophy (Yin-Yang Five Elements, Sangsu Philosophy, Hado). Surprisingly, different meanings from previous studies and interpretations were found, and King Sejong's "Da Vinci Code," which was left behind in the process of making the consonant, is reinterpreted and revealed. King Sejong's achievements were all connected as one. This is the root of democracy in the Republic of Korea today, and this is why King Sejong was selected as the most beloved and respected historical figure by the Korean people. This study will start with more people's understanding of the fundamental perception and philosophy of the world in Asia, including Korea, to reinterpret and reveal the hardships and great achievements experienced by a leader of a country in the process of creating korean alphabet, and to emphasize democracy, which is an important value for Asians and Westerners' mutual respect and co-prosperity.

This study seeks what kind of factors influence to locate dwellings and to establish scenic spots in nature by a case study focused on a meandering stream. The study specially concentrates on the interrelationship between both residences and beautiful sceneries and a meander cut-off-area that reveals a special topographical characteristics, located at Samji village in Youngyang-eup, Youngyang-gun, Koungsangbuk-do. The meander cut-off area, developed at the middle or upper reaches of a river, often makes up specific landscapes such as precipitous cliffs, sheer cliffs and caves. And the area where is specially created by sudden change of flow due to erosion ;perceived by the cut surface to be the most beautiful scenic spot. These beautiful landscapes were used to be called as Dae, Dam or Gul and managed by Confucian scholars who enjoy refined taste and devote themselves to the study in nature. Moreover, the Ku-Hado-literary means the area of ex-flow-made the scholars' lving with a well prepared basis for agriculture where supplied a cornucopia of organic matters and water. The merit of agriculture made it possible that the scholars became economically independent, and the fact might be the essential point why the meander cut-off area took noticed. Actually, Cho-family has been in Smaji Village for generations, producing a large number of scholars and keeping the actual power of the region. The physical shape of the meander cut-off area, cozily surrounded by mountains, is considered as a good place for the dwelling due to the influence of traditional sight of view for location and P'ungsuchiri which is known as Feng Shui in China and geomancy in the western world. It is a fruit in it own way that we could find the ancestors' discernment and wisdom from this study, who have lived their lives adapting themselves to the given natural environment and also utilizing the nature wisely. But this is a current-argued study on the meander cut-off area. Follow-up studies have to be continued about the landscapes of the meander streams and the meander cut-off areas scattered all over the country except Samji Village and draw the characteristics from the comparative analysis.

Objectives : Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa) is the method of needling which is based on Gimun-hak (Jimen-xue), and it is the most excellent method of needling than any other methods. In spite of the superiority of Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa), there are few documents which explain it in details. The purpose of this study is to make clear principle of Gimun(Jimen) & apptication of Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa) so many clinicians can make good use of it. Methods : Through investigation of many documents concerning Gimun(Jimen), Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa) and Bosa(buxie), the author first explained principle of Gimun(Jimen) and then made clear how to apply it in needling and how to perform Bosa(buxie). Conclusions : 1. Gimun-hak(Jimen-xue) is constituted combinations of infinite change of Chen-Gy-In Samje(Tianrendi Sancai) and Hado lakse(Hetu Luoshu). Gimun-hak(Jimen-xue), is the study which shows us the change of space time e- ntangling at once, and it is applied to troublous times and critical situations. Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa) combines of the method of needling with the time when Chen(Tian) opens and closes. So according to each cases, doctor must consider the adequate time. For example, in case of acute disease, the first day when the patient got ill is ta - ken. In case of chronic disease, the day when the patient came to see a doctor is taken. In Gimun-chimbub(Jimen-zhenfa), first it uses Jik-Sa-Mun(zhishimen) which can ac - cept Chen-Gi(tianqi). When needling, doctor must find the accurate acu-points and perform Bosa(buxie). Finally it uses Saeng-Mun(shengmen) which stirs up the vit - ality. Using Saeng-Mun(shengmen) decreases the rate of relapse of diseases.

Automotive sub-mat carpet for convenience and comfort of floor administration is additional supplemented floor mat. Sub Mat Backing of the current vehicle's materials reclaimed rubber, PVC, etc. are used, but secondary rubber and PVC Backing have bad sound absorption. Also rubber is heavy too. Contact surfaces between PET staple fiber, PET non-woven, PVC backing and car's floor carpet was measured the coefficient of friction for each sub-mat's non-slip evaluation. A surface of PET non-woven sub-mat has the highest coefficient of friction. Each of sample was observed by optical microscope the contact surfaces before and after. Contact surfaces of PET staple fiber sub-mat was changed increasingly to non-woven. This fact is shown that the sub-mat would be tangled between its contact surface and top of the floor carpet. It is expected to be highly non-slip. In case of PET non-woven sub-mat had not different for contact surfaces between before and after. And PVC backing was shown lower non-slip than other samples. The result of optical microscope and coefficient of friction is seems to be related.
