The identity of Korean housing culture has been the subject of discussion in the past several decades. Recently construction company is using the expression of Korean Identity based on traditional housing as a strategic concept. There, however, has yet been found a concrete solution despite the ambitions intent to modernize Korean tradition. In this circumstances, this research was intended to understand the characteristics of traditional housing preferred by consumers, in order to embody the scheme in which Korean tradition can be modernized. The main conceptual characteristics and concrete examples were included in the characteristics of traditional housing. In result, Environment-Friendliness, Visual Openness, Human-Centeredness have been turned out to be the most preferred attributes amongst the major concept characteristics of traditional housing. In concrete case of Environment-Friendliness, the use of healthy natural materials such as timber or yellow mud was preferred the most. Consumers were also especially fond of open passage through connecting front and back balcony as for Visual Openness, and spaces created based on human body measurements regarding Human-Centeredness. The Savored characteristics of traditional housing varied by gender, age, family type, income, and scale of residence. The result of this research will be useful for housing construction company in planning Korean style apartments and also exploring preferred qualities according to the type of consumer.

It is ironic but not coincidental that the loss of Korean sovereignty to Japan roughly paralleled the formation of the idea of Korean ethnic identity. The coalescence of the content of this heretofore amorphous notion of a "pure" and transcendental (in the class sense) ethnic essence was, again ironically, the result both of ideologies taken from (or given by) Japan and resistance to Japanese encroachment. What resulted was the birth of a hybrid (sub) consciousness that was able to accommodate disparate, or even contradictory, realities simultaneously without any sense of contradiction (Christian and shaman for example). If, as Kim Chul has asserted, the colonial period was the most impactful in forming today's Korean society and "giving birth" to today's Korean, it becomes easy to imagine how this formation process included elements of Japanese and western culture. This meant that there was going to be an inevitable cognitive dissonance when these influences collided with the imperatives of ethnic nationalism which became the touchstone for a common Korean identity (North and South). This paper attempts to show how this split-consciousness was manifested in Yeom Sang seop's Manse jeon with the aim of identifying how it affects discourses related to nationalism and identity.

현대는 어느 시대보다도 문화에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 이러한 시대의 조류에 맞추어 자국의 정체성을 찾으려는 노력이 여러 분야에서 다양하게 나타나고, 타문화와 우리의 문화를 비교하는 연구도 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 한 지역의 문화는 독립적으로 자연발생된 것이 아니라 인접 국가나 문화와 관련을 가지면서 변화, 발전하는 것이므로, 문화적 특성을 제대로 파악하기 위해서는 자국의 문화에 대한 깊이 있는 연구와 더불어, 타문화와의 상호비교연구를 통해서 각각의 문화의 유사점과 차이점을 분명히 이해하는 것이 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 특히, 한국 중국 일본은 예로부터 사회문화적으로 활발한 교류를 통해 서로 밀접한 영향을 주고받으면서도 독자적인 문화적 특징을 가지고 있으나, 아시아권 중에서 한국 문화의 차별화된 정체성이 제대로 인식되지 못하고 있는 것은 안타까운 현실이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 $14{\sim}19C$ 한국 중국 일본의 전통가구의 유형을 분류하고, 가구의 유형별 특성과 조형적 특성을 비교분석하고자 한다. 이를 통해 보다 객관적으로 우리의 문화를 이해할 수 있을 것이며, 동양적인 것과 한국적인 것에 대한 혼돈으로부터 보다 명확한 우리문화의 재해석을 가능하게 하는 기반이 될 것이라 기대한다.

Even though there have been greate changes in the types and contents of the housing plan in Korea since the Modem age, it seems that the identity of traditional dwelling culture is still remains within it. The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics and features in the development of the 'Public Standard' Housing Unit Plan by comparing the differences and similarities in unit plans in housings built on Japanese occupation period and those built after the period. From the study, we can conclude as follows: 1. The public standard housing unit plans on both periods have shown the common features in the composition of their physical forms in the way that the front-row area still remains the traditional housing culture and the rear-row area reflects the desires of the modem lives. The structure of the dual-row unit plan appeared in the public standard housing plan was caused by the cultural acculturation in Japanese occupation period. 2. The public standard housing unit plans, however, show the differences in the contents and meaning in units plans with the them of the Japanese housing because of the cultural differences. These differences took placed autonomously through the change of housing plans in the modern time, and have the common features such that 1) the changes in the Maru-centered plan type differ in composition from the inner-corridor plan type used Japanese housing, and 2) the composition of the open-inner spaces in the double-row housing plan reflects the single-row outer open space In the traditional housing. All of these cultural progresses in the public standard housing unit plans was took place as the result of the inner-oriented and notional circulations derived from the modernity. However, the transformed unit plans still contains the identity derived from the variation of the traditional Korean building elements such as Maru and Ondol. In other words, those are the Maru-centered and composed housing plans with juxtaposition of the inner block and the outer block. As the conclusion, though the public standard dwelling unit plan has the similarity in the physical form, it is different in the cultural Identity and meaning from the public standard plans before the independence from the Japan occupation.

한국 전통음악의 리듬은 K-Pop의 정체성 창출을 위한 음악 콘텐츠로 활용가치가 높은 음악 재료이다. 그러나 한국 전통리듬은 세계인의 정서를 자극할 보편적 특징이 부족하다. 한국 전통음악이 세계인에게 음악적으로, 문화적으로 낯설지 않게 접근하기 위해서는 현대적 정서와 결합하는 과정이 필요하다. K-Pop에서 정체성을 확립하고 세계인의 호응을 받는 음악을 창출하기 위해서는 실천적 작업이 병행되어야 한다. K-Pop에서 정체성 있는 음악콘텐츠의 생산은 기술적 요소의 개발과 함께 개발된 기술 자료를 최대한 활용하는 창의적 발상에 달려 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 전통 리듬의 세계화와 단일리듬으로의 전환 그리고 그 전환된 리듬들을 음악(K-Pop 월드뮤직)의 특성에 맞게 적용하는 방법을 제시해 본다.

현대사회는 디자인이 세계를 지배한다고 할 만큼 모든 면에서 새롭고 개성 있는 디자인이 요구되는 시대이다. 이를 뒷받침할 수 있는 것은 그 나라의 민족성이나 전통적 문화의 정체성이 자리하고, 현대 사회가 점차 세계화, 정보화가 되어감에 따라 한국 고유의 전통미를 재해석함과 동시에 계승, 발전시키는 것이 더욱 중요시 되어가고 있다. 조선시대의 여성들이 주로 사용한 장신구에는 수식장신구가 가장 많은 비중을 차지하고, 여인들의 머리모양과 머리장식이 신분이나 사회적 지위에 따라 발달하였다. 하지만 사회의 규범으로 인해 화려한 장식을 절제하고 정교함과 순박한 장신구들이 다수로 그들의 미적 욕구를 표현하였음을 알 수 있다. 문화적 정체성이 중요시되는 현 시대에 부합되는 한국적 이미지의 창출로 현대인의 기호와 접목 될 수 있는 신개념 장신구가 독특한 민족성을 지닌 우리의 문화유산으로, 우리 민족의 고유한 정체성 그리고 전통문화에 대한 새로운 인식과 함께, 한국의 미를 알리는 단초가 되었으면 한다.

Purpose: The study was done to explore meanings and essence of the experience in South Korea of men defectors from North Korea. Methods: Data were collected from March, 2011 to May, 2012, through in-depth interviews with ten men defectors. Data analysis was conducted using the process of hermeneutic phenomenological reflection. Results: Eight essential themes were extracted; 'buoyant expectation for a new life', 'feeling guilty about family left behind in North Korea', 'inability to become acclimatized due to communication difficulties', 'inability to socialize with South Koreans due to different lifestyles', 'finding strength through trustworthy acquaintances', 'continuing reconciliation with oneself while trying to assimilate into South Korean culture', 'self-realization of one's original self', and 'continuing to feel out the possibility of a future in South Korea'. Conclusion: The findings indicate that North Korean men who defect to South Korea shape their identity through three phases: forming self-image during escape from North Korea, trying to become accustomed to South Korean society, and finding their own identity by self-realization of their original self. Eventually, the whole process enables them to recover their identity, to feel a sense of belonging, and to discover possibilities for a better future.

This study examines the influence of acculturation level and ethnic groups as a fashion reference group on Korean-American consumer attitude toward luxury fashion brands. Of interest is the role of Korean culture, which emphasizes luxury brand consumption due to the Confucion value of 'face', on Korean-American attitudes toward luxury brands. Data were collected from 108 young Korean-Americans living in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and multiple regressions were conducted for the analysis. In general, the respondents had relatively negative attitudes toward luxury fashion brands. Even though the acculturation level did not have a significant influence, attitudes toward luxury fashion brands were influenced by Korean reference groups. Age at immigration did not have a significant relationship with attitudes toward luxury brands. Korean-Americans who maintain ties with Korean culture are more likely to have a positive attitude towards luxury fashion, regardless of familarity with American culture.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the identities and roles so that they can grasp their social roles and directions. Artists show a change in identity from the deification of modern artists with freedom and genius to artists who challenge the cognitive aspect of art and redefine the scope and concept of artists by expanding their social role. Artists dreaming of an ideal art utopia, in which art, society, politics, and daily life are coordinated, are constantly presenting the social role and direction of art through the combination and challenge of new ways of art and craft, beauty and function, creative imagination, and public service. Fashion designers act as contemporary genius artists, creators who express the appearance of the times, practitioners who advocate social values and changes, members of business in the fashion system, celebrities who are spotlighted by the public at the center of the fashion industry, or fashion influencers. Thus, fashion designers are complex or selective in their role depending on the fashion philosophy of individual designers or location given within the fashion system. They are becoming the subject of creating the culture of the times by expressing social ideology or playing a role in practicing art in life that leads social culture so as to raise the value of fashion in their development and satisfy cultural enjoyment of fashion consumers who consume art in everyday life.

This paper is a study of culture and identity expressed in textile art works of the age of globalization, centering on the Beijing International Fiber Art Biennale. This study began with the idea that globalism would develop regional cultural diversity as well as contribute to the field of art. In 2000, the Beijing International Fiber Art Biennale held its first large exhibition, and a total of 10 biennales were held from then until 2018. Get an understanding of the Beijing International fiber art Biennale, and select award-winning works from one to ten times to learn about cultural characteristics and identity. The analysis was based on the works of awards from China and Japan, including Korea, which are the center of East Asian culture. The Beijing International Fiber Art Biennale has steadily increased the number of participating countries, writers and works, and once again opened the stage for the revival of textile art following the Lausanne International Tapestry Biennale. Through the Beijing International Fiber Art Biennale, textile artists hope to promote world harmony in textile art, respect cultural diversity and conduct equal dialogue between East and West cultures.
