  • This study focused on situational simularity of psychedelic expressed in the mid-1960s with culture including costume in the end of 20th century. So this study is composed of psychedelic concept and the comparision of temporal background and general characteristics of psychedelia in the 1960s and 1990s and relationship with Art-Nouveau which has originated psychedelia and psycheelic image including mysticism play illusionism and narcissism. The New psychedelic revival of the early 1980s came at a time when as in the mid-1960s the world's attentions were firmly focused on British youth. The same could be said of the mid-1990s when 'BriPop' once again has international appeal and the result has been a kind of New New Psychedelic revival with all manner of British youth styles from the 1960s blended together. The swirling patterns hallucinogenic colors and space-aged designs of the psychedelics have become a symbolic representation of cocktail of youth sex and optimism

  • National Youth Space Center has recently founded the Deokheung Optical Astronomy Observatory (DOAO) 1m Telescope, which accepts community observing applications since 2016. Standardization and calibration of the new observing facility are essential for astronomical research. In this poster, we present standardization processes and preliminary results for photometry of the Johnson-Cousins BVRI filter system. We selected sample data from a night in stable weather condition. After bias, dark, and flat corrections and photometry using ccdred and daophot package of IRAF, we derived standardized band pass parameters including color terms. The corrected photometry results of the BVRI filter system show reduced deviations from the standard magnitudes in the literature. In addition, we calculated atmospheric extinction coefficients and limiting magnitudes of the telescope system. We plan to extend these standardizing processes to flux calibration of narrow band filters, e.g. $H{\alpha}$ filter.

  • The youth's rural rehabilitation movement started the crusade against illiteracy and poverty with all young educated elites including Whang Jongjin(a student of Yesan Public Agricultural High School) of the village, Shiryang-ri. Deoksan-myon. Yesan-gun. Among others, Patriot Youn(1908-1932) initiated the movement. The main projects of the agricultural extension were the Evening School(1926), Reading Club, the Woljin.Hoe(1929), Puheung.Won(1928), a Mutual Financing Association for Swine Farming, Sweet Potato Cultivation, Cooperative Planting, the Shuam.Sports Club and Consumer's Cooperative Society. The idea in Nongmindokbon (Famer's Text, 1927) is based on liberalism, equality, independence, a pioneer and cooperative spirit or realization of a physiocratical Utopia. Most references about Patriot Youn are concerned with his heroic deed in Shanghai, however the youth in Shinyang-Ri are typical agricultural extension workers or in other words, a forerunner of Saemaul Undong.

  • 'JOBLESS GROWTH' is a word to explain the world's common problem of unemployment. But, 'highly educated youth unemployment' is the unique condition that Korea society is facing. In this paper, we determine the cause of the problem with causal loop diagram and reach the conclusion. It is the paradigm to be highly educated person and that paradigm became permanent after the Korean War. People think that only highly educated person can bring wealth and honor, so they spend much money for their children's private education to enter university. Though young people receive bachelor's degree, they spend much money to get job. To solve these problems, this paper suggest three solutions. The first is to shift the paradigm to be highly educated person. The second is to expand the opportunities of public education as education system of Finland. And the third is to support the youth aptitude.

  • Purpose : This study was done for reviewing problems in surveys on youth health risk behaviors in Korea and for looking for strategies to improve surveys of youth health risk behaviors through literature review. Method : This study reviewed foreign and domestic literatures. Results : The main problems were as follows; 1) lack of health risk behavior surveys focused on health behaviors, 2) differences in health risk behaviors surveyed, 3) inconsistency in the measurement on health risk behaviors, 4) lack of representativeness of the sample, using convenient sampling. Conclusions: Several suggestions were made for the future research, including establishment of systems for youth health risk behavior survey nationwide, introduction of internet survey, maintenance of consistency in health risk behaviors surveyed, investigation of relating factors relevant to health risk behaviors, and uses of survey results.

  • This study investigates the influence of social network services (SNS) and political podcasts on youth participation in candlelight rallies leading up to the impeachment of the Korean president. It also examines the effect of SNS and podcasts on online participation through SNSs. It was found that engaging in political discussions with friends or parents and news media use, including TV and Internet newspapers, exerted a major positive influence on participation in the rallies. However, SNS had a negative influence, while podcasts did not have a significant effect. On the other hand, SNS and podcasts had a positive influence on online participation. The results of structural equation modeling showed that SNS and podcasts affected SNS participation in the mediation of political discussion and political efficacy.
