Due in large part to the success of 'Korean Wave' (Hallyu) entertainment commodities, there was much discussion concerning the increasing recognition of Korean culture. With the government's help, South Korean pop culture has spread all over the globe, and Korean businesses have flourished thanks to their global competitiveness. The media in the surrounding areas were quick to catch on, and they all but declared the arrival of Hallyu. Despite a tragic and brutal history of invasions, wars, and dictatorships, South Korea has the 14th largest economy and is the 15th most significant country in terms of soft power. This is largely attributable to the country's leadership in technological and cultural revolutions. The enormous economic and political gains South Korea has experienced from its Hallyu phenomenon remain impressive and even threatening to other countries competing with it for cultural dominance. This is even though media figures in the country must constantly keep in mind new ways to maintain relevance and even enhance their favorability, as pop culture trends are transient and sometimes unpredictable. As South Korean culture spread to the West, Hallyu facilitated the export of several cultural artifacts, including classical music, theater, art, literature, and dance. The Baby Shark music video and song were both created by the Korean business Pink Fong.

This study analyzes the trend of domestic research related to science writing education. The subjects of analysis were 152 research papers related to science writing education in Korea from 2004 to 2021. The analysis criteria were set as the research problem, research subject, research method and research application etc. Result of the analysis shows a steady increase until 2014, but decreased afterwards. In the result of the research problems, it was found that most studies were about finding out the effects of scientific writing activities. The research subjects were mostly elementary, middle, and high school students. Qualitative research occupied a large proportion in the results of the research method analysis, and there were many mixed studies that combined quantitative and qualitative research. As for the research application method, the most applied research in regular classes. As a result of analyzing the effect of application, most of the studies were on science concepts, attitudes towards science, thinking skills, and creative problem-solving skills. Writing education such as experimental and observational writing in science classes has been steadily conducted since before the introduction of the 2007 revised curriculum. In particular, the importance of scientific writing as a text-based education is being emphasized from the 2007 revised curriculum to the 2022 revised curriculum overview. Writing is an important learning strategy in science education for students to generate, share, explain, and expand their ideas. Therefore, examining domestic research trends related to science writing education can provide important basic data for setting the future direction of science writing education.

This paper explores the conditions and potential of newly designed and tried methodology of big data analysis that apply to Korean history subject matter. In order to advance them, we need to pay more attention to quantitative analysis methodologies over pre-existing qualitative analysis. To obtain our new challenge, I propose 'digital history' methods along with associated disciplines such as linguistics and computer science, data science and statistics, and visualization techniques. As one example, I apply interdisciplinary convergence approaches to the principle and mechanism of elite reproduction during the Korean medieval age. I propose how to compensate for a lack of historical material by applying a semi-supervised learning method, how to create a database that utilizes text-mining techniques, how to analyze quantitative data with statistical methods, and how to indicate analytical outcomes with intuitive visualization.

The purpose of this study is to identify current states and trends of convergence researches by conducting a bibliometric analysis of the papers in the Convergence Society for SMB. After 792 papers from 2012 to 2019 were collected, we analyzed network analysis by using centrality through extracting of nouns and compound nouns with text mining and 3 times of pre-processing and purification processing. According to the results, first, quantitative and qualitative aspects of the researches since 2016 improved, studies focused on words such as influence, convergence, mediating effect, satisfaction, and effect. Second, in the first half (2012-2015), engineering and technical studies were intensively conducted based on topics such as information, system, and security. Third, in the period of the second half (2016-2019), the research scope was expanded to college students, parents, teenagers under the topics of job, self-efficacy, education, satisfaction, depression, and stress. The results of this study are meaningful in identifying existing research trends and in providing information which requires the expansion of new research areas.

This study analyzed newspaper reports in the United States and South Korea that focused on Parasite's unprecedented performance at the 2020 Academy Awards. The research focused on the power relationship between 'the established and the outsiders (Elias & Scotson, 1994)' as represented by the Academy Awards and Parasite, respectively. Qualitative content analysis and text analysis were conducted to examine the reporting of American and South Korean newspapers and illuminate three aspects of the power relations between the Academy Awards and Parasite. Three major findings were derived. First, the Academy traditionally has a reputation for marginalizing films with a non-English or Asian background, but recognition of Parasite at the 92nd ceremony changed the Academy's established position of power. Second, historically, the Academy Awards had been characterized by a group charisma that exerts stigmatization (through an English-oriented policy and language stigmatization) and accords North American films priority over non-English movies. Lastly, the reports of newspapers in the two countries are generally similar, but the Korean articles internalized the individual, society, and the state.

Along with IT development, customers are getting more easily to express their opinions using various IT channels. In this situation, complaint management is a pressing issue for companies to acquire and maintain loyal customers with low cost. Most of previous studies have investigated customer complaint information by quantitative variables such as demographic information, transaction information, or complaint frequency, but studies focusing on qualitative aspects of complaint information are limited. Therefore, this paper considers the possibility for customers to leave even when they complain occasionally or briefly. This paper analyzes the quantitive aspects as well as the qualitative aspects using sentiment analysis with Exit-voice theory. The dataset contains 268,364 inquiries of 46,235 customers obtained from a contact center of a private security company in Korea. This paper carries out logistic regression and the results imply that the customers's explicit response and their implicit sentiment have different effect on customers leave. This study is expected to provide useful suggestions for the effective complaint management.

This study investigated the overall perceptions of pre-service school librarian teacher on the current education practicum through semi-structured in-depth interviews and suggested improvements to the educational practicum system. For this purpose, interview data were collected from 28 pre-service school librarian teacher (6 teachers' colleges, 14 taking teaching qualification courses, and 8 graduate school of education) who participated in educational practicum in school libraries, and a research method that combines qualitative analysis techniques with text network analysis was applied. The results of the study showed that pre-service school librarian teacher believe that educational practicum can prepare them for various field experiences and cultivate their ability to cope with situations they will encounter in the future. Through qualitative inquiry, we were able to identify their perceptions of school field practicum as a whole, their perceptions of the school field practicum, and their perceptions of educational service activities. Based on this, to improve the current problems of educational practice, we suggested expanding the period of school internship program, distributing the time, establishing a full-time practice system, having continuous discussions with field teachers, and developing a systematic school field practicum.

Resistance to sliding (RS) between the bracket, wire, and ligature has been largely debated in orthodontics. Despite the extensive number of published studies, the lack of discussion of the methods used has led to little understanding of this phenomenon. The aim of this study was to discuss variables affecting RS in orthodontics and to suggest an operative protocol. The search included $PubMed^{(c)}$, $Medline^{(c)}$, and the Cochrane $Library^{(c)}$. References of full-text articles were manually analyzed. English-language articles published between January 2007 and January 2017 that performed an in vitro analysis of RS between the bracket, wire, and ligature were included. Study methods were analyzed based on the study design, description of materials, and experimental setup, and a protocol to standardize the testing methods was proposed. From 404 articles identified from the database search and 242 records selected from published references, 101 were eligible for the qualitative analysis, and six for the quantitative synthesis. One or more experimental parameters were incompatible and a meta-analysis was not performed. Major factors regarding the study design, materials, and experimental setup were not clearly described by most studies. The normal force, that is the force perpendicular to the sliding of the wire and one of the most relevant variable in RS, was not considered by most studies. Different variables were introduced, often acting as confounding factors. A protocol was suggested to standardize testing procedures and enhance the understanding of in vitro findings.

Recent advances in the 4th Industrial Revolution have accelerated the change of the shopping behavior from offline to online. Search queries show customers' information needs most intensively in online shopping. However, there are not many search query research in the field of search, and most of the prior research in the field of search query research has been studied on a limited topic and data-based basis based on researchers' qualitative judgment. To this end, this study defines the type of search query with data-based quantitative methodology by applying machine learning to search research query field to define the 15 topics of search query by conducting topic modeling based on search query and clicked document information. Furthermore, we present a new classification system of new search query types representing searching behavior characteristics by extracting key variables through principal component analysis and analyzing. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the establishment of effective search services and the development of search systems.

This research analyzed articles about the disability under the 「The Disabled Person Welfare Law」 in a major daily newspaper. A total of 7,684 articles on disability were collected from homepages of the three newspapers , , and . Through network text analysis and content analysis, we considered about "The perspective of Disability" based on "Multiple Disability Model". As a result of this research, when comparing individual models versus social models, individual models have a higher rate 64.31% than social models 35.69%. According to the newspapers, the major perception of Disability is a traditional individual model, which means disability must be solved by individuals. In addition, due to low social and institutional supports, the public's attention and consideration required for the disabled, socially weak people. This research implied that despite the changing times of looking at disability, three newspapers are still staying in the traditional paradigm. Therefore, It is required that viewing a disability from the perspective on disabled people, and a mature awareness that recognizes the diversity of individual needs. The significance of this study can be found in the fact that no attempt has been made to treat the disability perspectivec in newspaper articles as quantitative and qualitative data.
