While same-sex marriage is officially legal in 28 countries, widespread discrimination continues against people in the LGBTQ community in Confucian Asian countries. This study examines how media exposure affects attitudes towards gay men using the cultivation theory in China, where LGBTQ issues are still censored in media. Moreover, this study looks into the immediate effect of watching gay content on attitudes towards a friend's coming out. Based on the survey of 236 young adults aged 18-22, the study results showed that heavy viewers of gay content and female had a more favorable attitude towards gay men. Furthermore, while the participants favored non-gay content, those who viewed gay content were more supportive of a friend's coming out than those who watched non-gay content. The findings indicated the cultivation effect on attitude towards same-sex relationships in a Confucian Asian country that can be used to foster a more inclusive society.

The term "ya-o-ii" which is referred as a homosexual comics in Korea came from Japan and it became one of popular genres in both Japan and Korea's comics market. People create yo-o-ii with their own idea or borrow male characters from the pre-existed comics or animation and create a whole new story. Homosexual comics which is based on teenage readers deals with sex and focuses on homosexuality. For that reason it reflects social phenomenon than general material for comics. Before we focus on influence of homosexual comics on teenagers and social phenomenon, this study is for fundamental understanding on homosexual comics itself. In order to look into current state of homosexual comics, the survey was conducted at "Comic World" which is well known as the biggest offline comic event in Korea. This study analyzes range of age and awareness of readers of homosexual comics on the basis of the survey. Hopefully, this study helps better understand an influence of homosexual comics on teenage readers with problem of sex identity and contribute to the study of market segmentations of homosexual comics.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the strategy of representation of homosexuality in the mainstream media and its meaning. And it also concerns what would be the limit of representations of homosexuality and what would be the discourse these representations produce in the major terrestrial broadcasting. For this investigation, we conducted the analysis of , the mainstream television drama, focused on the gay couple characters and their representations of conflicts and resolutions by comparing with the two heterosexual couples to figure out the differentiated representation strategies of homosexuality. As results of the analysis, the representation of sociogenic cause of conflict is absent for gay couple while it was found in the case of one heterosexual couple. And gay couple is exposed to the interpersonal conflicts against their family members than heterosexual couples and described as victims. Lastly, gay couple was represented as needing mediators to solve their problems while heterosexual couple was represented as ensuring subjectivity for the resolutions of conflicts.

This study was a cross-sectional study done to determine the relevance and impact factors of gender role attitude and self-esteem on attitude toward homosexuality among college students. A survey was conducted 201 college students with self-report questionnaire in one university of Ulsan. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and linear multiple regression with SPSS/WIN(21.0). Factors affecting attitude toward homosexuality included gender, former middle${\cdot}$high schools. Attitude toward homosexuality had a negative correlation with gender role attitude. And gender and gender role attitude accounted for 31.0% of the variance in attitude toward homosexuality. The major factors influencing attitude toward homosexuality were gender and gender role attitude. The more males than females and the more traditional gender role attitude were more negative toward homosexuality. Therefore, it is necessary to provide education program and establish a service program according to gender in order to develope and accept healthy identity of college students for the positive view on homosexuality.

This study explored the phenomenon of heterosexual women embracing Boys' Love manga within the heteronormativity context from a feminist psychological perspective. Specifically, the issue of genre characteristics of Boys' Love manga, women's psychological mechanism of reading Boys' Love manga, and the functions and effects of embracing Boys' Love manga were discussed. As a theoretical framework of analysis, I started from the classical psychoanalysis and critically adopted the concepts of the various camps of feminism, queer theory, and Huizinga's Homo Rudens. The results show that Boys' Love manga can be classified as a sub-category of the romance genre, which fulfills heterosexual women's desires of eternal love and equal partnership. From these wish-fulfilling fantasies, heterosexual women attempt to be decontextualized from the heteropatriarchism, to enjoy distancing and voyeuristic separation from the characters in the texts, and to disturb the dichotomous gender system through gender reversal identification. These processes, which can be regarded as a women's play challenging sexual rigorism, ultimately bring about an awareness of the female sexual subjectivity.

배경: 승모판막 질환에 동반된 심방세동의 경우 그 기간이 길면 승모판막 질환을 수술하여도 동성 율동으로 전환될 가능성이 매우 적다. 본 연구는 승모판막 질환에 동반된 심방세동에 대한 변형 Maze 수술후 장기 결과와 심방세도의 재발에 미치는 요인을 조사 하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1990년부터 1996년까지 승모판막 질환과 동반된 심방세동으로 외과적 요법을 시행받은 35명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 심방세동의 평균 유병기간은 평균 7.7$\pm$4.5년이었고 수술은 승모판막 대치술 34례(재수술 3례)와 승모판막 성형술 1례를 시행하였고 승모판 질환 수술 외에 동반 수술로는 삼첨판륜 성형술 4례, 삼첨판막 대치술 3례 였다. 심 방세동에 대한 수술은 좌측 폐정맥 부위는 격리하지 않는 변형 Maze 수술을 시행하였다. 수술 후 동성 율동으로 회복여부, 심방세동의 재발에 미치는 요인과 장기 결과를 분석하였다. 결과: 수술 직후 2례를 제외한 33례(93.9%)에서 동성율동으로 돌아왔으나 수술 후 퇴원 전에 12례에서 심방세동이 재발되었다. 수술환자중 1례에서 수술 후 3일에 동성 정지에 따른 심정지가 발생하여 소생되었으나 뇌손상으로 수술 후 15일에 사망하였다. 심방세동이 재발된 경우 수술 후 약 2개월에서 6개월 사이에 항부정맥 약물(mquinidine)과 전기적 제세동으로 치료하여 12례중 10례에서 동성 율동으로 돌아온 환자는 항부정맥 약물을 모두 중단하 였으며, 수술 후 3년에서 9년(평균 71.1$\pm$17.5개월) 추적 관찰 중 9례에서 심방세동이 재발되어 장기간 동성 율동이 유지된 환자는 34명중 25명으로 73.5%이었다. 승모판 질환이 있던 환자에서 수술 후 심방세동의 재발에 미치는 요인들을 조사한 결과 수술전 심방세동의 기간(동성율동 유지군 : 재발군=6.3년 : 10.3년, P=0.008)과 수술 전 단순 흉부 X선상 심흉비율(0.58 : 0.72, p=0.009)은 통계학적으로 유의하게 나타났으나 심초음파 검사상 좌심방의 직경(57.2mm : 77.4mm, p=0.106)은 통계학적 유의성이 없었다. 결론: 심방세동이 있는 환자에서 동반 질환 수술시 병행하여 수술한다면 정상 동성 율동으로 회복될 기회를 증가시킬 수 있는 유용한 수술법으로 생각된다. 그러나 수술후 재발률을 감소시키기 위하여 적절한 술기의 변형에 대한 연구와 약물요법의 병행을 고려하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.

6개동 498세대가 거주하고 있는 서울 하계동 한신동성아파트는 지난 2006년 12월 327kW급 열병합발전기를 도입했다. 기존에 스팀보일러로 중앙난방을 하던 방식에서 발전기로 대체한 이 아파트는 가동한지 7개월만에 2억 원 이상 비용절감을 하고 있다. 한신동성아파트를 찾아가 보았다.

B-모드 초음파를 이용한 경동맥 내중막 두께(IMT intima-media thickness) 측정은 관상동맥 질환이나 허혈성 뇌질환 위험도의 독립적인 인자로 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 NTSC(national television system committee) 방식으로 경동씩 초음파 동영상신호를 획득하여 프레임으로 나누어 각각의 IMT를 측정하였다. 각각의 측정값을 시간축으로 재구성하여 시간도메인에서 IMT 의 시변동성을 분석하였다. IMT 시변동성 분석을 통하여 상대적으로 부정맥피험자가 정상피험자에 비해 IMT 평균값이 작아 위험도가 낮다고 평가 될 수 있지만 시변동성 분석으로 IMT 평균값이 작아도 혈관의 기능적 특징이 부족하여 위험도가 높다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 경동맥의 형태적 특징과 기능적 특징을 반영하는 이 분석방법은 경동맥 내중막 두께측정의 신뢰성을 향상시키며 관련질환의 위험도와 중증도를 세분화 할 수 있는 새로운 방법이 될 수 있을 것이다.
