The spread of internet brought the rapid development of on-line shopping mall, but the information of clothing-related products especially underwears in on-line shopping mall is still poor. Thus, in this paper, we investigated the dimension status and problems of brassieres selling at on-line shopping malls and suggest improving solutions. We surveyed the sales sizes and sales status of brassieres for four top-sales on-line malls and analyzed them based on both of Korean Standards and SizeKorea2005, the measurement data of Korean women's sizes. The results showed that almost of brassieres were for adults(98.8%), and for general purpose(97.8%) while the sales rates of specially targeted products for teen-ager or functional products for nursing mom were very low. Also, we noticed that Korean Standards covers most of SizeKorea measurements of women, but brassieres of only a small portion of size in Korean Standards were manufactured and sold at on-line shopping mall. It means that consumers who do not belong to the sector of most frequent body measurement range suffer difficulties in purchase of brassieres by on-line shopping. Thus, it is required to gather more accurate information about body size of potential consumers and to offer wider range of sizes and target-specific products for the activation of on-line shopping.

Evaluation items on purchase criteria and evaluation after purchase were processed with factor analysis. The results of the present study showed that product differentiation strategies are required based on age in order to improve consumer satisfaction and repurchase intention in home shopping underwear. Moreover, most of underwear products sold in sets in home shopping are provided based on the brassiere size. As a result, women who do not fit into the home shopping underwear size combination may be less satisfied. When consumers choose their own brassier and briefs size or combinations of various brassier and briefs sizes, it would increase consumer satisfaction.

연구배경(硏究背景) ; 사상체질의학에서 체질의 정확한 진단은 매우 중요하다. 전체적이고 직관적으로 제시된 동의수세보원의 체질진단 방법을 명확히 하기 위해서는 각 체질간의 특성을 확실히 알아야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 그러한 취지를 바탕으로 이채로운 주제인 남자 음경과 여자 유방크기의 체질별 차이를 살펴보아 이들의 형태가 체질을 진단하는 데 있어서 어떠한 유의성이 있는지 살피고자 하였다. 방법(方法) ; QSCCII등을 이용한 전문의 진단으로 체질이 구분된, 특별한 질병이 없는 한국사람 86명(남자 39명, 여자 47명)을 대상으로 각각 남자에게는 이완시 음경의 길이를 자를 이용하여 음경뿌리부터 귀두부(部) 끝까지 재게 하였고, 굵기는 실과 자를 이용하여 중간부분을 재게 하였으며, 흥분시 음경의 길이와 굵기를 같은 방법으로 재게 하였고, 여자에게는 개별면담으로 키, 몸무게, 가슴둘레, 브래지어 컵 사이즈를 조사하였다. 연구결과(硏究結果) 및 결론(結論) ; 86명의 사상체질(四象體質) 유형(類型)은 태음임(太陰人) 28명(32.6%), 소음인(少陰人) 37명(43%), 소양인(少陽人) 21명(24.4%)이었고, 음경(陰莖)과 유방(乳房) 크기 분석(分析) 결과(結果)는 다음과 같았다. 남자(男子) 음경(陰莖) 길이의 체질적(體質的)인 차이(差異)에 대한 유의성(有意性)은 없었다. 단지 태음인(太陰人)의 음경(陰莖)이 평소(平素)에 가장 길고 그 대신 가장 적게 늘어나며, 음경(陰莖)의 굵기는 이완시(弛緩時), 흥분시(興奮時) 전부 태음인(太陰人), 소음인(少陰人), 소양인(少陽人)의 순서(順序)로 굵기대소가 진행(進行)되는 경향(傾向)이 있을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 여자(女子) 유방(乳房) 크기의 체질적(體質的)인 차이(差異)에 대한 유의성(有意性) 또한 없었다. 단지 가슴둘레나 브래지어 컵 사이즈를 보았을 때, 예상대로 태음인(太陰人)의 가슴이 가장 컸고, 소음인(少陰人)과 소양인(少陽人)의 비교(比較)에서, 가슴둘레 그리고 몸무게에서 가슴이 차지하는 비율은 소음인(少陰人)이 더 컸다. 브래지어 컵사이즈는 소음인(少陰人), 소양인(少陽人)이 대등(對等)했다. 소음인(少陰人) 여성(女性)의 가슴이 흉금지포세(胸襟之包勢)가 성장(盛壯)한 소양인(少陽人) 여성(女性)의 가슴보다 작지 않다는 경향(傾向)이 있을 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 통계적(統計的)으로 유의성(有意性)을 가지지는 않았으나 음경(陰莖)의 대소(大小)와 여성(女性) 가슴의 대소(大小)는 사상체질별(四象體質別)로 특징적(特徵的)인 경향성(傾向性)이 있다고 사료(思料)되고 많은 연구(硏究)가 기대되었다.

This study attempted to investigate the plastic characteristics of cyber punk fashion with a focus on fashion in the cyber punk movies in order to inquire into how the influence of the cyber punk taking the lead in the spiritual culture and way of life of the humankind in the 21th century would be expressed in fashion. For this purpose, it sought to analyze the beauty of new fashion creating the cyber environment and identify its contemporary meaning. An attempt was made to investigate the image of cyber punk fashion with a focus on fashion expressed in the cyber punk movies. As a result, the following findings were obtained: First, the image of cyber punk fashion expressed in the cyber punk movies was simplicity, which was to express the modest silhouette and details exclusive of decoration. In addition to clean and smooth gloss, it contained the modest image of resistance', not 'revolt' by borrowing the partial motive and image from existing punk fashion. The change of cyber punk fashion into the characteristic of concise, smooth external appearance brought about the restraint of its image and symbolism as well as its plastic characteristic. Second, it was characterized by the Eroticism nature of emphasizing the body line while expressing the future and modest image or exposing the body. Cyber punk fashion expressed the avant-garde image by using materials that gave a mysterious and future feelings, as well as unsymmetrical silhouette, the slit of body-conscious line, coarse cutting, the method of do-constructing and reconstructing the silhouette, the method of applying diverse underwears such as corset, brassiere and the like. Third, cyber punk fashion was marked by the nature of mined sex. It had the masculine image by using the black color containing the image of masculinity and resistance in female clothing and expressing the suit, coat and military looks giving an masculine impression. And it expressed the image of mixed sexes with the masculine image in male clothing by borrowing feminine images such as body-conscious line, widely cut neckline, floral decoration, leggings and the like. Fourth, cyber punk fashion was marked by naturalness. It was expressed as clothing made from silhouette, knit, cotton and the like in the atmosphere expressing love, comfortableness and truth. This contained the image of naturalness, a return to the primitive, that human being wanted to return to their original figure in the future element. The cyber punk movie may contain a dismal, gloomy future image on the whole, which can be overcome, and shows the possibility that it may grow into the alternative culture, not the revolting culture. The movie of 'The Fifth Element' demonstrates the meaning and role that shows the bright future image. It is thought that designers should make efforts for cyber punk fashion to perform its role in changing the gloomy future image into the bright image of society
