'Fun' may be a basic desire of all human beings, but studies that combine both education and enjoyment were very limited, with the exception of the sports and games subjects. As a result, this study focused on the fun induced from the actual site of education, beginning under the premise that this can increase the effectiveness of education. In particular, it has been concluded that more fun is especially required in compulsory education that disregards one's opinion, with the Social Service Personnel that are required to undergo two weeks of compulsory job training selected as the test subjects. In order to comprehend how the 'fun factor' from the Social Service Personnel' job training influences the educational effectiveness, the causal relationship between learning flow, group flow and learning satisfaction has been proven using the structural equation model. Through this, the median between fun and education was found, as well as whether fun education has an actual effect on educational effectiveness. In addition, it is an opportuniy to emphasise the need for enjoyable education for not just Social Service Personnel, but for all involuntary learners.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the structural relationship between resort selection attributes, emotional responses, and empirical values of scuba diving participants. The general population who enjoys scuba diving in Korea was selected as the population. Using the convenience sampling method, 553 of the 600 questionnaire samples were extracted as the final valid sample. For data processing, frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and Cronbach's α test were performed using SPSS 23, and confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation model analysis were performed with AMOS 18. The results are as follows: First, among the sub-factors of selection attributes, equipment, facility environment, and diving point showed a positive effect on emotional response, but staff service did not have any significant effect. Second, the emotional response positively affected by the selection attribute showed a positive effect on all factors of service excellence, consumer utility, fun value, and aesthetic value of empirical value. Therefore, scuba diving resort managers must recognize the importance of equipment, facility environment, and diving point among these selection attributes of customers. And to satisfy the customer needs the resort must accurately identify the needs for diving equipment, facility environment and diving point. Various methods for this should be explored through the needs of the identified customers, and efforts should be made to provide safe equipment, comfortable facilities, and various diving points.
