  • 본 연구는 중년 여성들에게 있어서 웹보드 게임 경험은 어떤 의미를 갖는지 알아보려는 시도였다. 한국 중년 여성의 게임 경험은 매우 다차원적 의미를 갖는다. 가부장적 전통, 세대적 의미, 게임 담론, 테크놀로지의 발달과 확산이라는 점이 복잡하게 얽혀있다. 48세부터 63세에 이르는 여성 다섯 명과 심층면접을 실시하였다. 심층면접의 결과는 첫째, 이들에게 있어서 웹보드 게임은 노동에 반대되지만 동시에 노동을 함축하는 의미였다. 적극적 취미활동과는 구분되는 '휴식'이었고, 따라서 반(反)/준(準)노동적 성격을 가진다. 둘째, 중년은 비교적 시간적 여유가 생기는 시기지만, 중년 여성들이 자율적으로 적극적인 취미활동을 추구할 수 있는 여건은 아니었다. 셋째, 중년 여성들은 웹보드 게임을 무의미한 활동으로 여겨서 이를 위해 돈을 쓰거나 가사 일을 희생시키는 일은 용납하지 않았다. 넷째, 게임을 통해 기존의 사회적 관계가 온라인으로 이어지거나 새로운 사회적 관계가 형성되지는 않았다. 나만의 시간과 공간을 추구하는 의지가 반영되는 것이다. 이상의 결과를 통해, 중년 여성의 게임 경험이라는 비교적 새로운 소재에 대한 개략적인 그림을 그릴 수 있었다.
