The term 'myth' is modern terminology. It was introduced to the East Asia from late 19th century to early 20th century. Under the rule of Japanese imperialism, some Japanese historians insisted that Dangun(檀君) has no relation with Kochoson(古朝鮮). Some Korean historians have refuted their conjecture. The arguments between Japanese and Korean historians bring about the motives of making the concept of Shinwa(神話) The purpose of this study is to investigate the historical procedures of making myth of Homogeneous Korean as a case study of "teaching religion". For the scholar the historic beginning is to be distinguished from later myths of origins. The scholars, particularly among the historians of China, Japan and Korea take it as the beginning of the history to investigate myths, for the ending parts of narratives are in themselves involved in a social constructs in order to give legitimacy to the story. It is apparent to satisfy for the current social demands of the nation-states building. It is also an act of casting and projecting their national values into the far distant past which is considered to be authentic and authorative. The western term 'myth' had been made up in Japanese historical context in order to build "nation-state concept". In Korea, the myth of homogeneous ethnicity of Koreans had been also reconstructed as modern myth during the late 19th and the early 20th century. We can call it the invention of the tradition accordingly.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the 'Modern Architecture Space' represented in Korean melodrama films of the late 1950s. It is assumed that popular films reflect the residential culture, architectural spaces and human activities of those days. For the analysis, a pool of 5 Korean melodramas of the late 1950s was constructed. In these melodramas, the modern architectural spaces were represented as the following: 1) The modern-style residential spaces were emphasized to reflect the interest and longing of the public for western lifestyle. 2) The western non-residential spaces such as work spaces and commercial spaces were emphasized, especially its interior design of western image.

Recently with the research function, "XML Digital collection of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment" DB data is being provided through the Korean Research Memory (http://www.krm.or.kr) and the foundation for the constructing the contents of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment has been laid. In this paper, by reviewing the characteristics and problems of Digital collection of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment and searching for the improvement, I tried to find a way to make it into the content. This database has the primary meaning in the integrating and glancing at the vast amounts of Sijo in the Period of Modern Enlightenment to reaching 12,500 pieces. In addition, it is the first Sijo data base which is provide the variety of search features according to literature, name of poet, title of work, original text, per period, and etc. However, this database has the limits to verifying the overall aspects of the Sijo in the Period of Modern Enlightenment. The title and original text, which is written in the archaic word or Chinese character, could not be searched, because the standard type text of modern language is not formatted. And also the works and the individual Sijo works released after 1945 were missing in the database. It is inconvenient to extract the datum according to the poet, because poets are marked in the various ways such as one's real name, nom de plume and etc. To solve this kind of problems and improve the utilization of the database, I proposed the providing the standard type text of modern language, giving the index terms about content, providing the information on the work format and etc. Furthermore, if the Sijo database in the Period of Modern Enlightenment which is prepared the character of the Sijo Culture Information System could be built, it could be connected with the academic, educational contents. For the specific plan, I suggested as follow, - learning support materials for the Modern history and the national territory recognition on the Modern Age - source materials for studying indigenous animals and plants characters creating the commercial characters - applicability as the Sijo learning tool such as Sijo Game.

From 1905 to 1910 when the deepening national and educational crisis existed, the Korean intellectuals established many educational associations and published many academic journals. In this study, the researcher investigated 9 academic journals which had 132 books published by these educational associations in Korea during the Modern Educational Period (1876${\sim}$1910). The results of this study were summarized as follows : (1) The contents of journals mainly consisted of the Korean history and geography for the purpose of increasing Korean people's identification. And also the journal articles dealt with the western political and economic systems. In addition to these contents, the journals included many scientific studies which were aimed at educating the ordinary Korean people. (2) The scientific articles from these journals were mainly composed of earth science and biology including physiology, while the number of articles for physics and chemistry was less. (3) These scientific articles were published by the same writer in a series .However, the academic level of these was like a school textbook. Based on the results of the data analysis, it is believed that these journal articles possibly were used as a school textbook for science education.

In Korea The understanding about physical body contains several cultural and historical experiences. In the modern times several discussions bring about changes from moral training to physical education. Physical education shows clearly modern physical human being by destructions of confusional human being. In confusional philosophy human body contains moral facts such as moral training. Moral training shows right mind, so every physical acts target mental and cultural training. So in this capitalism, it is needed o training right moral training and right physical education.

가뭄은 짧게는 한 계절에서 1년, 길게는 10년 이상 지속되는 등 시간 규모가 다양하며, 그 시작과 끝을 명확하게 정의하기 힘든 특성이 있다. 이와 같이 나타나는 가뭄의 장기적 발생 특성으로 인해 지역의 가뭄 특성을 정확하게 분석하기 위해서는 장기간의 자료를 필요로 한다. 그러나 우리나라의 경우 근대적인 관측은 1900년대 초반에 시작되었으며, 현재 운영 중인 대부분의 관측 시설은 1970년대부터 이용 가능한 자료가 존재하는 상황이다. 미국의 경우에도 1800년대 후반부터 관측된 자료를 이용하여 가뭄 및 홍수 분석을 수행하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 점을 보완하여 보다 장기간의 가뭄 특성 관련 정보를 확보하기 위한 노력이 많은 연구자들을 통해 지속되어 왔다. 강수량이나 유출량 등 근대 관측 이후 이용이 가능한 자료를 통해서도 가뭄과 관련된 유용한 정보를 획득할 수 있으나 보다 장기간의 정보를 확보하기 위해 나이테 등 다양한 기후 지표를 이용한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 특히 과거 가뭄 특성에 대한 복원을 위해 나이테자료를 이용하는 연구는 미국을 중심으로 매우 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 또한 몽골이나 티베트, 중국 등과 같이 근대 기상 관측 자료가 매우 부족한 지역을 대상으로 가뭄 특성을 분석하기 위해 해당 지역에서 확보된 나이테 자료를 이용하는 연구가 매우 활발하다. 그러나 우리나라에서는 나이테자료와 가뭄 특성 간 관계를 검토하고 나이테자료에 근거하여 과거 가뭄 특성을 복원하려는 노력이 거의 전무한 실정이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 근대 관측 이전에 대한 가뭄 특성을 복원함에 있어 나이테자료의 활용가능성을 파악하기 위해 가뭄 특성을 나타내는 가뭄지수와 나이테자료의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 우리나라 및 주변 국가에서 확보된 나이테자료를 이용하였으며, PDSI, SPI 등 기존 가뭄지수를 분석에 함께 활용하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 연구결과는 향후 나이테자료를 기반으로 근대 관측 이전에 대한 가뭄 특성을 복원하는데 있어 유용한 기반 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 나이테자료 등 기후지표를 이용한 가뭄 관련 연구의 기초 정보로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

Busan was known firstly to the western world in the end of 18th century. When the Joseon opened a port under the western powers in the late 19th century, Busan was an important port. The increasing number of international ship exchange had magnified the harbor facility and the importance of lighthouses of Busan port. Busan maritime customs officer were in charge of installation and management of lighthouses. The operations of maritime customs became historical origin of Joseon changing from feudal society to modern nation. The majority of the documents from maritime customs was disappeared. So it was hard to know the exact history. But investigating documents and papers of Joseon, even media records will enable us to establish the objective fact relations. Moreover, published and translated data from the past make it possible such investigations. As a result, modern lighthouse of Busan harbor in the late Joseon after opening port was could be found. It could be offered to establishing the Korean modern history as the objective data.

Recently our country highly evaluate cultural value of modern construction. Before and after Japanese imperial period, diplomatic equipment, commerce equipment and brand-new modern construction of Japan and Western came into our country coercively. Especially, modern construction placed in center of the city, as previously stated, was a construction field of historical disgrace. So it leaves alone or transforms to high technology because of well located. Selctive reception of the past makes difficult to know about rightful modem, furthermore it is difficult to expect rightful future. Accordingly, I write this. paper for the purpose of presenting the space application blueprint of 'Jung Myung Jeon' of modern construction designated as the cultural properties in Seoul. According to the project, 'Jung Myung Jeon' will do a role as the keyword which is important connects a past and a present time it presents. Then modern construction 'Jung Myung Jeon' which has a culture value will develop continuous with the city.
