The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics and meanings of Instagram hashtags related to the exhibitions as a online communication platform of museums. At the same time, it focuses on efficiency of hashtags as a reference framework of inferring viewing experiences. We collect and visualize Instagram hashtags of exhibitions held in Korea for the past two years including 'Paper Present (2017)', 'YOUTH (2017)', 'Monet, Draw Light Exhibition (2018)', 'Van Gogh Inside (2016)', 'Drawn by the Wind: Shin yun-bok & Jeong Seon'. To sum up, significant data related to viewing experiences are not derived, and hashtags as a reference framework of inferring viewing experiences are turned out to be inefficient. Meanwhile, we conclude that potential for distributing information about the exhibitions is inherent in hashtags. In terms of informational characteristics, we notice that the influence of hashtags related to regional information is presented more than the response toward the viewing experiences. This result shows that Instagram users in the exhibitions are worthy of place making rather than viewing experiences.

The objective of this study was two fold: firstly, we analyzed how the Geoparks have been run since the first one had been designated on December 31th, 2015. We then investigated how visitors' geographical and geological recognitions on the parks have changes. We visited geosites and investigated how well these sites accorded with the conditions for running Geoparks. In addition, scenery pictures and hashtags uploaded in Instagram between 2015 and 2016 were collected in order to analyze visitors preferences on the geosites along the, Hantan Imjingang River Geopark. Results showed that the hotspots were Bidulginang Waterall, Art Valley, and Jaein Waterfall. Compared to the ratio of geographical and geological references in 2015, the hashtags in all of these three geosites increased. The increases were as much as 3% in Bidulginang Falls, 0.6% in Art Valley, and 5% in Jaein Falls. In labelling the geographical and geological terms in Bidulginang Falls and Jaein Falls, the most frequently mentioned hashtags was "columnar joint", followed by "natural monument", "Geopark", and "basalt canyon". This study includes the study of visitors recognition which is one of the most important, but somehow neglected factor for the geopark's management.

Social network service users actively express and share their feelings about social issues and content of interest through postings. As a result, the sharing of emotions among individuals and community members in social network is spreading rapidly. Therefore, resulting in active research of emotion analysis on posting of users. However, There is insufficient research on emotion analysis for postings containing various emotions. In this paper, we propose a method that analyzes the emotions of an Instagram posts using hashtags and images. This method extracts representative emotion from user posts containing multiple emotions with 66.4% accuracy and 81.7% recall, which improves the emotion classification performance compared to the previous method.

The aim of this study was to analyze the semantic network structure of keywords and the visual composition of images extracted from Instagram in relation to the multi-persona phenomenon with in fashion imagery, which has recently been attracting attention. To this end, the concept of a 'secondary character', which forms a separate identity from a 'main character' on various social media platforms as well as on the airwaves, was considered as the spread of multi-persona and #SecondaryCharacter on Instagram was investigated. 3,801 keywords were collected after crawling the data using Python and morphological analysis was undertaken using KoNLP. The semantic network structure was then examined by conducting a CONCOR analysis using UCINET and Netdraw to determine the top 50 keywords. The results were then classified into a total of 6 clusters. In accordance with the meaning and context of the keywords included in each cluster, group names were assigned : virtual characters, relationship with the main character, hobbies, daily record, N-job person, media and marketing. Image analysis considered the technical, compositional, and social styles of the media based on Gillian Rose's visual analysis method. The results determined that Instagram uses fashion images that virtualize one's face to produce multi-persona representation s that show various occupations, describe different types of hobbies, and depict situations pertaining to various social roles.

How does a public health crisis play into the digital rhetoric of states? As Covid-19 is presenting a situation in which countries need to manage the international environment in a relatively short period, their practices could signal how digitization is going to influence public diplomacy in the longer run. This paper explores state public diplomacy in the context of a public health crisis. It develops a theoretical framework of public diplomacy on social media through how and what states communicated during the first year of the Covid-19 pandemic. Through keyword and hashtag analyses, we identify two patterns. First, states usually regard social media as an instrument for domestic communication rather than public diplomacy. The international impact of messaging has not been prioritized or well-recognized. Social media platforms such as Twitter have global outreach and messaging can be seen by audiences all over the world. Messages intended for the domestic audience could have an international impact. Thus, any communication on digital platforms should consider their public diplomacy outcomes. Second, while social media platforms are claimed to be for networking at different levels, states tend to connect with other states rather than with international organizations during the pandemic. States do not like to mention international organizations like the WHO and the UN on Twitter. Instead, they were either busy dealing with internal problems or cooperating with another state to combat the virus.

The purpose of this study is to determine the concepts of heterotopic image and fashion space, and the characteristics of fashion space and images from the perspective of fashion brands and users. This study examines the evolution of fashion space and consumers with it, based on Foucault's theory of heterotopia, which refers to spaces that blend contradictory features not typically found within a single physical structure. This is accomplished by employing a single case study of Ader Error's Ader Space, a Seoul-based brand known for its unique approach to presenting and communicating fashion. Based on an analysis of Instagram posts of Ader Error along with the hashtag searches "aderspace" and "adererror", this study categorizes heterotopia from the perspective of fashion brands into three properties: fashion space as a medium for selling fashion products; fashion space as getaway to hybrid fashion practices; and fashion space as an illusionary place to experience fashion. From the user perspective, the heterotopic image of Ader Space portrayed on Instagram is characterized by the image of fashion products in an extraordinary fashion space, the image of a fashion space beyond space and time, and the image of exposing the hidden and the illusion-compensation of fashion space. This study contributes to a heightened understanding of the evolutionary concept of the fashion space.

COVID-19 상황 속에서도 전 세계 Twitter K-POP 콘텐츠 관련 트윗 양은 78억 건 이상으로 매년 성장세를 보인다. Twitter 내 K-POP 팬들은 아티스트 관련 해시태그를 포함한 트윗을 작성하여 같은 팬덤끼리 실시간으로 정보를 전달하고 생산한다. 이러한 맛집 트윗들은 K-POP 팬들이 Twitter 내에서 신뢰도 있는 맛집 정보를 얻는 용도로 사용된다. 하지만 팬들이 정보를 얻기 위해서는 여러 맛집 해시태그로 검색하고 리트윗 수가 많은 트윗을 직접 찾아야 한다. 기존의 맛집 추천 시스템은 서비스 제공자 중심의 구조를 띤다. 서비스 제공자가 일방적으로 정보를 전달하거나, 사용자 리뷰 갱신 간격이 길다는 한계가 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 Twitter 내 K-POP 맛집 해시태그가 포함된 트윗을 Twitter API와 Tweepy를 사용하여 크롤링하였다. 수집한 데이터의 좋아요 수와 리트윗 수를 바탕으로 데이터 필터링을 진행하여 bot user와 광고 계정이 제외된 맛집 관련 트윗을 추출한다. 최종적으로는 추출한 트윗의 정보를 마커로 표시하여 웹 사이트를 제작하였다. K-POP 팬들은 맛집 해시태그를 검색하여 일일이 찾을 필요 없이 웹 사이트에 방문하여 맛집 위치를 확인할 수 있다. 웹 사이트 사용자의 위치가 지도상에 표시되어 가까운 맛집을 찾기도 편리하다. 본 논문에서는 맛집의 위치를 서대문구로 한정하여 진행했다.

Recently, the size and type of disasters in Korea has been diversified. However, Korea has not been able to build various information support systems to predict these disasters.Many other organizations also provide relevant information. This information is mainly provided on the Web, but most of it is not real time information. In this study, we have paid attention to support information using big data to provide better quality real - time information together with information provided by institutions. Big data has a large amount of information with real-time property, and it can make customized service using it. Among them, SNS such as Twitter and Facebook can be used as a new information collection medium in case of disaster. However, it is very difficult to retrieve necessary information from too much information, and it is difficult to collect intuitive information. For this purpose, this study develops an information support system using Twitter. The system retrieves information using the Twitter hashtag. Also, information mapping is performed on the map so that intuitive information can be grasped. For system evaluation, information extraction, degree of mapping, and recommendation speed are evaluated.
