As the growth of the live streaming service market is accelerating due to COVID-19, the number of downloads and reviews of live streaming mobile applications is also rapidly skyrocketing. This study is to research game streaming applications using Twitch reviews as database. A total of 8 topics are extracted through LDA topic modeling and 7 out of them are detected to be inconvenience factors. Then, to pinpoint the main inconvenience factors, co-occurrence analysis is used in order to find out main factors. Finally, based on previous studies, several solutions are provided, which can solve the inconvenience factors(advertisement, UI design, technology problems) as well as strengthening digital competitiveness. This study will serve as an opportunity to improve digital competitiveness not only for Twitch but also for other game live streaming service companies in the future.

When developing MMORPG targeting pre-teenagers, developer has to consider the users' psychology and physiology characteristics. In the product of endless decision making in the game play, pre-teenagers make improvised choice and make intuitional decision. Therefore, based on users understanding, the Alpha version of online game has been shown and examined its usability through FGI. In conclusion, the game interface integrating with story-telling based leads the users more into the game. Also, it is more important to post in game screen layout by importance of the information or frequency in using In addition, it is inspected that when users control the interface mentioned above, the response had to be quick and precise.

The current study investigated the effect of user interface design on metaverse user's objective task performance, perceived usefulness, presence, and enjoyment. Using a 2 × 2 within-subject repeated measure experimental design, we found that users perceived the interface to be significantly more useful when additional visual cues existed and performed better for the given task. Additionally, a repeated-measure mediation analysis revealed that the effect of richer information in the interface on users' enjoyment as a function of need satisfaction was mediated by perceived usefulness. Theoretical and practical implication are derived from the result of the current study.

The aim on this thesis is to develop virtual construction designing experience web-site in order to help non-professional to predict the actual construction working result by self-construction design, provided by virtual reality program, sharing knowledge of architectural design and materials on internet to solve certain problems. The way of study is using case of virtual reality technology which is practically using in architecture era recently; in construction design, deducting realizable virtual reality technology of limitation and its solution; analyze case of construction designing program which is currently used by professionals; constitute required essential functions as UI(User Interface) when constructing. Followed by result of study, as a proposal, in service, technical, and UI sectors are the way to construct its objectives for internet based virtual construction experience web-site.

'Heongbu and Nolbu 1' is a series of the on-line game 'Tales Runner.' It is based on a traditional Korean fairy tale. However, the game characters in Heongbu and Nolbu 1 wear casual clothes even though the game is set in the Joseon Dynasty. Therefore, this paper presents proposed game characters clothes based on traditional Korean costumes from the Joseon Dynasty. This work should help inspire gamers and game designers with the beauty of Korean traditional costumes and familiarize them with an aspect of Korean people's identity. A literature review of online games and game characters was carried out, and game characters' clothes were analyzed. The design motifs of historical relics of the Joseon era were evaluated. Three styles, one traditional and two "fusion" styles integrating traditional and modern elements were proposed for each of the 4 characters: Chowon, Ruff, Bada and Abell. The chulrik and jurip were used as design motifs for Chowon. A traditional chulrik, short chulriks and pants are suggested. Second, the dongari and jeonrip were used as design motifs for Ruff. A traditional dongdari, sapok pants, deck pants and a vest are suggested. Third, the jeogori and chima were used as design motifs for Bada. A traditional female hanbok, arm warmers, short-sleeved jeogori and dress are suggested. Fourth, the dang-ui and daeran-chima were used as design motifs for Abell. A traditional dang-ui and daeran-chima, blouse, skirt, jumper and tight Bermuda shorts are suggested. The length, shape and color were converted into new styles, but some traditional elements such as the git and goreum were retained.

우리가 사용하는 이미지뷰어프로그램은 정보전달에만 치중되어 있고 감성적인 부분이 차지하는 바가 적다. 또한 사람들에게 디지털카메라로 찍은 사진들을 보는 것은 많은 과정을 필요로 하고 큰 노력을 요한다. 게다가 다른 사용자들과 즉각적으로 공유하기도 힘들다. 이 같은 문제점들을 해결하는 새로운 이미지뷰어인터페이스를 제안해본다. 기존의 이미지뷰어프로그램들을 분석하고 그에 대한 결과와 문제점을 찾은 후 새로운 디자인 키워드를 제시하였다. 단순함(Simplicity), 즉각성(Instancy), 공유(Sharing), 감성(Sensitivity) 이렇게 네 가지 키워드이다. 사진(Picture)은 이미 지나간 과거이다. 이러한 사진의 시간개념을 Timeline 에 적용하고, 이를 원(Circle)이라는 모양으로 나타내어 사진을 볼 수 있게 하였다. 원이라는 새로운 형태의 인터페이스는 사진을 보다 쉽고 즉각적으로 공유할 수 있다. 데모버젼으로서 매크로미디어 플래시 액션스크립트로 프로그램을 하고 파워메이트(Powermate)를 장치(Device)로 사용하여 시연하였다. 이 인터페이스는 사람들이 쉽게 접할 수 있는 장소면 아무 곳이나 설치가 가능하다. 카페나 회의장소에서 가장 적합하게 어울릴 것이다. 사용자는 다른 이들과 함께 즉각적으로 간단한 방법으로 함께 감성을 나눌 수 있다. 새로운 인터페이스디자인이 사람들에게 쉽게 인지되어, 보다 편리하게 이미지를 확인할 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다.

The purpose of this study was firstly, to evaluate the contents of vocabulary game applications for young children's language learning. and secondly, to examine whether there is any differences between Korean and English word games in terms of the evaluation score. For this purpose, the word game applications in smart phone and tablet PC were analyzed, which included 30 Korean word games and another 30 English ones. The criteria to evaluate the contents were developed based on Children's Software Evaluation Instrument developed by CTR, the multimedia evaluation standard by Hee Sook Park, Young Joo Lee, and mobile contents evaluation standard by Soo Ui Choi. As a result, the educational value got the highest score whereas the design characteristics area got the lowest score in the whole evaluation analysis. And English word game applications mostly got higher score than Korean versions. The result of this study would suggest the way to evaluate educational game applications in use and to contribute to developing educational game contents aimed at young children's language learning.
