This study investigated the phenomenon of modern people enjoying tattoo culture in Korea from the perspective of post subculture. A qualitative study was conducted using both literature review and in-depth interview methods. For post-subculture perspectives, the theories of Maffesoli (2017) and Thornton (1996), which are suitable for interpreting contemporary tattoo culture, were reviewed in terms of seven concepts: sporadic network, grouping, fluid participation, temporary emotional bond, self-distinction, pursuit of underground culture, and display and concealment. Semi-structured questionnaires were constructed and administered based on the organized characteristics. Five cultural qualities of the tattoo phenomenon in Korea were derived based on post-subculture concepts. Sporadic formation is related to the pattern of inflow into tattoo culture, and "streaming" participation is based on fluid participation and temporary ties. Distinction within subculture is based on self-distinction and pursuit of underground. The costume-playing ordinary concept includes the characteristic of controlling the exposure of tattoos in society. Finally, formation of the consumer tattoo market was newly discovered in Korean tattoo culture.

5000년의 역사를 가지고 있는 문신은 집단사회의 표식이며 방어 및 위장, 자신을 가꾸기 위한 하나의 수단으로 사용 되었다. 현대 사회에서의 문신 문화는 소수 민족에 국한 되거나 개인적인 선호의 장식 요소로 문신이 사용되고 있다. 그 중 중국 소수 민족인 태족은 아직 문신 문화가 유지되고 있으나 점차 퇴색되고 있다. 따라서 태족의 문신 문화보호의 필요성이 요구 된다. 본 연구의 절차 및 방법은 고서분석 및 거주 지역의 탐방 조사 그리고 인터뷰를 통한 자료수집으로 진행하였다. 조사 결과 태족의 문신 문화는 전통 문신도감, 문신사의 기억, 문신을 받은 사람들의 이야기 등에 의해 지속적으로 전해져 왔다. 그러나 1952년부터 1956년 사이 진행되었던 중국의 정치개혁으로 태족의 전통문화와 풍습이 변화되어 문신 문화 규모가 이전보다 축소되어 사라져 가고 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 소수민족인 태족의 문신 문화계승을 위해서는 문신 문화의 기록이 필요하다고 사료되며 향후 고령화로 인한 문신사와 문신을 받은 사람들의 문신 문화의 기록 및 문신의 해석이 연구 되어야 한다고 사료되어 진다.

In this research, we conducted an empirical study using the theory of sociologist Jean Baudrillard to examine the phenomenon of contemporary people in Korea acquiring tattoos. The researcher classified the consumption behavior of modern society, as described by Baudrillard in The Consumer Society, into three keyword phrases: consumption by personal taste, coded consumption, and recyclage of consumption. Using this as the premise of the study, 18 men and women in their 20s and 30s completed questionnaires and interviews, and the results supported labeling tattoo consumption as consumption by personal taste, tattoos as coded consumption, and recyclage of tattoo consumption, similar to the consumption pattern that Baudrillard sees. First, the younger generations have consumed tattoos according to their personal preferences. They express themselves by tattooing for self-complacency, self-marking, pursuing individuality, overcoming the appearance complex, and seeking pleasure. Second, they have consumed socially coded tattoos. They say that tattoos domestically act as negative codes and symbolize individuals. Although tattoos are a symbol of artists who are relatively free from social norms, they are still a symbol of social misfits created as such by negative perceptions. Third, the pattern of tattoo consumption is like that of contemporary consumption. Tattoos already have become part of popular culture in Korea, and there has been a changing trend in tattoo culture. This study has significance in that tattoos were regarded as a consumption behavior that deviated, from the perspective of deviance. That phenomenon of today's tattoo culture of today was confirmed through the empirical study.

문신은 인류에게 오랫동안 전승되어온 문화 형태다. 인류의 여러 문화권에서 전승되고 발전해온 전통적인 문신 풍습은 역사, 예술, 사회, 등 다양한 분야에서 학술적으로 중요한 연구 가치를 가진다. 두룽족은 중국 남서부 윈난(雲南)성과 근처 지역에 사는 소수 민족 중 하나로 안면문신을 위주로 하는 '얼굴문신(文面)' 풍습을 가지고 있다. 중화인민공화국이 성립된 1949년 전까지도 원시사회 형태를 유지한 두룽족의 전통적 문화는 문자가 없는 구전(口傳)의 형태로 전해 졌으나 두룽족의 신비로운 문신문화에 대한 보존자료가 없어 연구의 필요성이 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구는 근현대 문헌과 윈난성 지역 현장 탐사 두 가지 방법으로 수행되었다. 얼굴문신 풍습의 정확한 이유와 시기는 알 수 없으나 1966년 중국 문화 대혁명으로 금지되어서야 사라지게 되었다. 얼굴문신의 상징과 기능에 대해서는 현지 탐사과 근현대 학자들의 연구를 통해 크게 신앙숭배, 성년 의례, 심미 장식, 민족 사회 역사의 4가지로 나눌 수 있으며 문신을 하는 시기는 7~8세 부터이다. 얼굴문신은 지역에 따라 상류 여성은 비교적 복잡한 도안으로 구성되었으며, 하류 여성은 간단한 도안으로 구성되었다. 문신은 주로 친족이 시술하며 주로 대나무 꼬챙이와 솥바닥에서 추출한 회즙 재를 재료로 사용한다. 현재 두룽족의 얼굴문신을 한 여성은 25명 미만으로, 대부분 고령화되어 있어 수십 년 안에 모두 사라질 것으로 보인다. 따라서 두룽족의 독특한 얼굴문신 문화에 대한 문서화가 시급하다.

This study has investigated the stream of consciousness and the actual conditions of tattoo. A survey of 466 people has found that female prefer tattoo, and a group of age between 21 and 41 and professionals are more interested in it. Both past and present of attitude consciousness about tattoo understand it dynamic and severe. However, it is considered as a feminine these days, whereas it had been understood as a masculine image in the past, which means a decrease of symbolism by gender. Also, in comparison with the past, the current thoughts on tattoo are getting hopeful and affirmative that we could know the attitude about tattoo changes. A survey of 106 tattooists shows that most people get a temporary tattoo, and permanent, semi-permanent tattoo came next. The most preferred area were eyebrows, are, shoulder, forearm, back of hand and waist, and a main reason of getting tattoo were for beauty and ostentation. For the level of satisfaction, 70.7% of the people polled said they were satisfied with it, and male preferred a pattern of animal, geometric and plant while female preferred a pattern of plant, animal, and geometric in order. So far, by the lack of basic information and data, efficiency value of tattoo is in negative view. Thus, it would be required to enhance a level of understanding tattoo focusing on the positive side like a new life style, sense of value, sensation and emotion of contemporary people, and generalize it by providing various technical information and knowledge of beauty image effect accompanied with tattoo.

I think that apparel attaches importance to the degree of satisfaction of visual expression in one ornamental culture in which it is clothed on human body. whereas a tattoo attaches more importance to part of the expression of one's own identity in the same context. However. modern tattooing act was highlighted only as an element of act which was negative in the purpose and the degree of taste or which assumed the grotesque meaning of a particular group. away from pure concepts such as simple ornament or an amulet according to the flow of the world. A tattoo is gradually being seen as one of avant-garde methods of art again these days, and TATTOO LOOK is being popularized as street fashion as an effective method of one's own satisfied desires and peculiar expression of personality. I have got the following conclusions as the result of having studied on a tattoo which is establishing itself as another plastic art that is matchable with the fashion of dress and its ornaments in which human incessant instinctive desire for the ornament of body has been beyond nostalgia for the past and simple ornament which were pure in up-to-date modern society First, a tattoo is of personality. In that it solidifies one's own personality of another side by being transformed, one's own attraction can be transferred to a fashion tattoo with which one can emit one's own personality. Secondly. a tattoo is fashion. As a new body ornament called transformation by a tattoo was emerging, the fashionableness owned by a tattoo had in its area ample room for the fashionableness with which it can coexist with the culture of dress and its ornaments. Thirdly. a tattoo is popularized. TATTOO LOOK in which one's own satisfied desires and the expression of personality are properly applied is being recently transmitted easily everywhere in the world and popularized as street fashion. Fourthly, a tattoo is not depraved art. It's because of the point that a tattoo which had been recognized only as a decadent expression in which avant-garde elements of unknown nationality appeared mixed showed the possibility that it could establish itself as fashion art. If we go on studying and complementing the problems of individual sides about a tattoo also in the future, the infinite fashionableness for the elements called personality. sense and emotion owned by a tattoo suggested ample possibility as future industry to be highlighted.

본 연구는 대학생의 타투 소유자와 비소유자를 대상으로 부정적 건강행동, 정신건강 그리고 자아존중감의 차이를 분석하기 위하여 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 서울·경기소재 4년제 대학생 214명으로 하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS 통계패키지 25.0 version을 이용하여 기술통계, 요인분석, Cronbach's α를 산출하여 분석하였고, 교차분석, t-test를 실시하였다. 연구결과 타투 유무에 따른 두 집단간의 부정적 건강행동, 정신건강 및 자아존중감에 대한 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 타투의 부정적 속성을 보고하는 선행연구들과 상반되는 긍정적인 측면의 연구로서의 의미를 가진다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 앞으로 타투를 문화현상으로서 타투를 반영하고 활성화 시켜 시대에 맞는 문신문화를 확립하는데 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
