Recently, there has been the gradual growth of the public in rural amenities, hobby farming works, much more urbanities, and especially near-retires. However, in spite of popular preference to ruralities, little has been known about their demand on retired rural life. Therefore, this study examined urbanites' attitude to preparatory works for out-migration, preferred residential site condition and life styles in the countryside. For the purpose, data were collected from the survey with the sample of 62 urban trainees who were studying farming technology in department of training on agricultural technology of Korea National Agricultural College, RDA. We carried out the experience farming to candidate with using the abandoned sericultural facilities which are the silkworm rearing house and mulberry fields. The 71% of urban trainees, who answered in this survey, hoped to move into countryside after retirement and to make a monthly income of $1,000 from agriculture. The age distribution of sericulural farmers is about 79% more than that of 60 years old. In the experience farming works. The two candidates made 1,977$ with net income through 32 days worked in spring season. In autumn season, the couple candidates made 1,317$ with net income through 23 days worked. Knowledge of these results will be important to policy-makers and to understand the role that retirement in-migration play in stimulating economic growth of rural agricultural farmers.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of city dwellers' migration to the rural areas on the increase of their life satisfaction and its influencing variables. Using a quota sampling, 500 city dwellers across the country and 180 migrators to the Goesan Gun in the Chungcheongbuk-do were selected. The results showed that (a) most city dwellers want to move to the rural areas for their relaxation and rest for their retirement, but migrants' main goal is to realize their internally oriented values, (b) life satisfaction is more evident for migrants compared to city dwellers, and it is influenced by self-assessed income, self-perceived health and internally oriented value, and (c) migrators contribute to their own successful aging by using strategies of selection, optimization and compensation compared to city dwellers. The contribution of this paper is to identify and confirm that (a) migration to the rural areas is an effective way to increase individual's life satisfaction although goals of dwellers and migrators are different, (b) the specific influencing variable and their weights in increase of life satisfaction are unique in Korea, and (c) income level is a not sufficient condition but necessary condition. Several managerial implications and policy directions were suggested to help both migrators and potential migrators to settle successfully in the rural areas.

본 연구는 난민으로 떠났던 베트남 화인들이 '고국'인 베트남으로 돌아오거나 재정착하는 과정에서 경험하고 인식한 바에 초점을 두고 디아스포라 정체성의 변환 과정과 귀환이주의 역동성을 고찰한 것이다. 대개 1970~80년대 여러 가지 정치적, 경제적 이유로 베트남을 탈출하였던 화인 중 다수가 1990년대 후반부터 다시 베트남으로 돌아오고 있다. 베트남 화인 이주민의 귀국 현상과 관련하여 흥미로운 점은 그들이 베트남을 떠날 때는 대부분 '호아'(Hoa) 또는 '호아끼우'(Hoa Kiểu,)로 불렸으나, 베트남으로 돌아올 때는 다른 베트남 출신 귀국자들과 동일하게 베트남 해외동포라는 의미의 '비엣끼우'(Việt Kiểu)로 불리고 있다는 점이다. 이들은 베트남 정부의 '귀국동포 우대정책'의 혜택을 함께 누리고 있다. 비록 한때 이들에게 부여된 '중국인' 정체성으로 인해 파도가 거센 바다에 목숨을 맡기는 위험을 감수하도록 하였으나, 지금은 이러한 우대정책과 함께 이들이 '베트남인' 정체성을 부착하고 '고국' 베트남으로 돌아오고 있는 것이다. 이 연구는 이와 같이 '화교'에서 '비엣끼우'로 정체성 변환이라는 흥미로운 현상에 대해 고찰한 것이다. 또한 중국계 베트남 이주민의 귀환 현상에는 복합적인 정체성의 문제가 내포되어 있다. 한마디로 '혼종 디아스포라'(hybrid diaspora)라고 할 수 있는 카테고리가 만들어진다.

Recently, Southeast Asian people, its food, natural sceneries and so on have been increasingly exposed to Korean people through mass media and multi-cultural events. At the same time, Koreans can frequently encounter Southeast Asians in their everyday lives. Thus, specific images and discourses of Southeast Asia has been established in our society, which creates a new social trend called 'Southeast Asia phenomena'. In short, 'Southeast Asia phenomena' means a totality of Korean people's experience of Southeast Asian and their perception on the region. On the one hand, 'Southeast Asia phenomena' is a result of inflow of Southeast Asians and their culture into Korea. On the other hand, it is also a consequence of Korean people's understanding of Southeast Asia from their trip to Southeast Asia or from their interactions with Southeast Asian people. This article aims to analyze the origin and diffusion of 'Southeast Asian Phenomena' in Korea in the context of Southeast Asia focusing on 4 topics, that is, migrant workers, overseas investments, retirement migration, study-abroad categorized as human movement. This article is also about a country-by-country comparative analysis both at the macro level and the micro level. At the macro level, overseas investments and trade, human exchanges, positive perception to Koreans which considered to be the structural causes become a strong mechanism playing a important bridge role between Korea and Southeast Asia. So these create the high probability of the emergence of 'Southeast Asian Phenomena' At the micro level which is more direct causes of 'Southeast Asian Phenomena', the economic cause is the most important common cause for 4 Southeast Asian Phenomena. Additionally, Korean wave is also remarkable common cause creating 'Southeast Asian Phenomena' even it is not the origin in the context of Southeast Asia. The diffusion of 'Southeast Asian Phenomena' is different by the topics and the elements contributing to create the favorable situation for the diffusion are not only overseas investments and trade, human exchanges at the macro level but also policy elements at the micro level. The relative differences of the causes of 'Southeast Asian Phenomena' in the country-by-country analysis are found. Regarding overseas investments in Vietnam and Cambodia, the economic degree of freedom in Cambodia is higher than in Vietnam. Even Korean Wave has had the longer history in Vietnam, but the favorable perspectives on Korean Wave are stronger in Cambodia. For migrant workers from Vietnam and Indonesia, the economic causes in Vietnam are more significant than in Indonesia. The impact of Korean Wave is stronger in Vietnam than in Indonesia. In case of study-abroad, the social-cultural elements and policy elements are more diverse in Malaysia than in Korea. For the Korean retirees who immigrate to the Philippines and Malaysia, the economic causes in the Philippines is more significant in Malaysia.

In this study, the longevity index was suggested for researches about social and environmental effects to human immorality and criteria for defining longevity area were developed using statistical analysis. Candidates indexes based on researches about the tend of human death ratio were investigated. As a result statistical analysis, ratio of population over 85 yearn old and over 65 years was selected as a longevity index. Statistical analysis on the longevity distribution at each district showed that 'eup' and 'myun' are appropriate spatial unit to study social and geographical characteristics of longevity. The spatial analysis using the $ArcView^{TM}$ with the suggested index shows the time dependent variances of degree of immorality and spatial relationship between degree of immorality and human migration.

광역도시내 대도시와 신도시는 경제적인 유기체임에도 불구하고 임의적인 행정구역으로 분할되어 있다. 이 결과 대도시는 신도시 주민들을 위하여 막대한 재원을 투자하여 도시기반시설을 건설하여야 하나, 상주인구의 감소로 재원부족이라는 어려움에 빠지게 된다. 본 연구는 1990년 미국 센서스 1% 자료를 이용하여 53개 광역도시내 인구이동을 분석하여 대도시가 도시기반시설에 투자를 하면 할수록 신도시로 대도시 인구가 빠져나가는 "신도시 주민의 대도시 찰취가설"을 입증하였다. 결국 광역도시내에 상이한 지방정부가 존재하는 경우 지방정부서비스 공급은 티부이론이 제시하는 효율성을 달성하지 못하기 때문에 광역도시내 정부 서비스의 공급은 사무엘슨 방식의 통합적 제공이 필요하다. 제공이 필요하다.
