This research was designed to find out what is a distictive feature of the design elements of Korean women's costume and its influence by analizing the trend of Korean women's constume during the period of 1890 and 1995. The research was analized by a total of 854 random samples of clothing styles collected from materials in the museums and from articles of three leading newspapers and one of the best women's magazines in Korea. The changing trend of Korean women's costume was found out to be as follows: 1. In around 1910s, the trend of Korean women's costume has been changed into two-tier structure of both Korean and Western styles, and the typical and traditional Korean women's street wears such as 'Chang-ot' and 'Tsdechima' have been gradually diminished. 2. From 1920s, length of the Korean skirt, which was unnecessarily long and inconvenient, has been getting shorter for the convenience of walking.

Improving public awareness of wood is crucial for expanding the use of wood and establishing a wood culture. In this study, the environment and trends of the public's wood utilization were analyzed using a questionnaire survey and online text mining at a time when eco-friendly practices are gaining popularity. As a result of reducing climatic and environmental concerns and its positive physical and psychological effects, the use of wood is predicted to rise in areas intimately connected to everyday living, such as wood furniture, wooden structures, and interior materials. Nonetheless, there was a negative awareness that wood was expensive, difficult to maintain, and associated with deforestation. The correlations between wood-related search terms on major Korean portal sites were analyzed and categorized into five groups: Wooden architecture, cultural education, woodworking, wood industry, and wood policy. As a building material, wood was seen as more traditional and friendly than reinforced concrete and stone. Eighty-six percent of respondents expected to utilize wood as a building material in the future, regardless of whether the wood is domestically produced or imported. Sixty-five percent responded favorably about the effects of wood on the health of wooden home inhabitants. It is believed that both active publicity and quantifiable value analysis of human and environmental friendliness are required to increase pro-environment awareness of wood utilization.

As an attempt to develop a value-added food product, purple sweet potato powder was added in a model system of steamed bread as a healthy food ingredient and physicochemical properties such as moisture content, specific volume, spread ratio, color, texture as well as consumer preferences on the attributes such as uniformity, color, flavor, elasticity, chewiness, taste, and overall preference were evaluated. Moisture content ranged from 44.16 to 44.55% (wet basis) and appeared independent on the level of purple sweet potato (PSP) powder incorporation. As a result of the addition of PSP powder, the specific volume of steamed bread decreased from 3.22 to 2.55 mL/g, and value of 4.5% sample was significantly lower than other samples (p<0.05). On the other hand, spread ratio ranged from 2.01 to 2.53, and appeared to decrease as the PSP powder concentration increased (p<0.05), indicating a significant improvement. Lightness $(L^*)$ decreased significantly as the PSP powder content increased (p<0.05) for both dough and skin of the steamed bread. In addition, an increasing trend in redness ($a^*$-value) and a decreasing trend in yellowness ($b^*$-value) were noticed. Firmness increased significantly with the addition of PSP powder regardless of concentration (p <0.05); however, firmness was not significantly different among samples containing 1.5-4.5% PSP powder (p>0.05). Consumer acceptance test indicated that incorporation of 3% PSP powder in the formulation of steamed breads would be recommended.

이 연구의 목적은 현대 사회문화의 새로운 경향으로 부각된 웰빙 문화생활에서 인간에게 보다 질적으로 향상된 디자인제품의 필요성을 알리고 이용하게 하려는 데에 있다. 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 조명제품디자인에 웰빙을 적용한 디자인연구가 시작단계의 수준이라 판단하고, 웰빙의 성향과 현시대 소비자가 새롭게 요구하는 조명디자인연구를 하고자 한다. 최근 급변하는 문화현상의 요인으로 디자인이 새롭게 인식되면서 현대인의 기능을 중시하는 소비문화에서 지적 만족을 추구하는 디자인의 소비문화로 변화하고 있다. 또 디지털 정보화 시대에 따라 유비쿼터스와 같은 다양한 디지털 첨단기술이 발달하게 되면서 소비자는 정적인 것보다는 동적인 것, 또한 자신들의 자극에 반응이 있는 제품에 관심을 보이고 있다. 동시에 자연친화적 이고 인생을 풍요롭고 아름답게 영위하고자 하는 웰빙문화를 선호하고 있다. 즉, 제품의 기본적인 기능사용만을 위함이 아닌 오감을 만족시키기 위한 디자인을 요구하는 시대가 왔음을 의미한다. 하지만 20세기 후기에 나타난 산업사회에서 인간중심적이고 친환경적인 제품의 경향은 일부 제한된 분야에서 시도되고 있을 뿐 일반적으로 이에 대한 연구는 미흡한 현실이다. 본 논문은 기존 조명제품디자인이 생활의 정신적 문화적 만족이 새로운 목표가 되고 있는 사용자들의 웰빙 성향과, 그들이 필요로 하는 제품의 방향성을 알고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 인터렉션디자인을 접목하여 문제 해결의 대안을 제시하여 웰빙 성향에 있어 발전이 미흡했던 원인을 분석하고 그에 대한 해결방법을 모색하여 인터랙션디자인, 웰빙을 적용한 디자인을 제작한 결과, 기존 조명디자인과의 차별화로 현재의 조명제품디자인에 충분히 활용될 수 있을 것으로 예상되는바, 이 분야를 계속 연구할 가능성이 있다는 결론을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study homosexuality as a discourse represented in contemporary fashion magazines is explored in context. The main concerns are the contemporary construction of homosexuality, fashion symbols to identify homosexuals, and relationships between homosexuality and heterosexual masculinity in fashion images today. After elaborating homosexuality conceptualized historically, an analytical framework from Foucault's discursive approach was made up to interpret the fashion spreads since 2000. As a result, as it is assumed that the concept of homosexuality is constructed by historical specificity, homosexual fashion styles are dynamic. So, it should be recognized that they are formed by power relationships with heterosexuality, and other social factors such as class, race, age, and consumer culture and market trends. On the basis of photographic themes and fashion looks homosexual images are classified into 3 kinds of versions, the effeminate trend setter, the masculine athlete or biker, and the neo camp. However, most of contemporary homosexual photographs are not also so conspicuously different from heterosexual ones. Therefore, in the contemporary structure at least from fashion images, homosexuals can be recognized equally with heterosexual people only except for sexual preference. Thus, homosexual fashion also shares a lot of fashionable products with heterosexual one, with often homosexuals' role as trend -setter.
