At this point, in celebration of the officially appointed "year of mathematics", it is very meaningful to demonstrate the importance of mathematics with a historical drama about mathematics and mathematicians of the Joseon Dynasty. In this article, the reasons for production of historical dramas about mathematics and mathematicians in the Joseon Dynasty was presented in two ways. First, modern mathematics has high level of abstractness as its nature, and therefore many students and the public can not understand what except for some areas. Second, it is possible the easier and various approaches can be used to deal with contents about real-life in the view of popularization of mathematics. Also, this article would aim to explore the main character and episodes about mathematics and mathematicians in Joseon Dynasty.

The purpose of this study is to analyze trilogy by means of semiotics. trilogy constructs a story as a whole while each piece delivers a concluded ending. This study used 'modele actantiel' and 'carre semiotique' of Greimas in order to clarify not only the meaning structure but also the course of narrative of . is a compelling story which reverses the fairy tale of a beautiful princess and a heroic prince. Each piece of the trilogy unfolds as following; (1)ls the love of a princess and an ogre possible? (2)Can the marriage of the couple get confirmed? (3)Can Shrek be free again? The repeated meaning structure of trilogy is the binary opposition of nature versus culture, and the narrative course forms the meaning square on the basis of the opposition. Human culture represented by the lord Farquaad and Duloc castle signifies cleanness, order, complex, anxiety, paranoia, authoritarian, and violent. On the contrary, Nature represented by Shrek and the swamp signifies barbarity, freedom, confident, maturity, unstrained, and humar. The meaning of Shrek series is generated by the structure of the basic discrimination of culture versus nature. However, as story twists the bias and fixed idea, the meaning structure of Shrek shows a unique relationship of culture and nature. Although Shrek, an ogre, lives alone in a swamp because of the bias of human world, he is depicted as self-sufficient, comfort, and broad-minded. On the basis of this meaning structure, Shrek is not a story that an ogre(nature) strives to enter the human culture, nor a story that nature wins a victory at the confrontation between culture and nature, but a story that human(culture) and ogre(nature) overcome their fixed ideas through the transition from culture to nature and vice versa.

The social statistic was used to top 250 Korean and Japanese YouTube channels based on the number of subscribers examine its channel type (private/corporations/others), distribution of contents and private YouTube channels' date of registration. The channel examination was also used to provide practical hint to create new Youtube contents. According to the statistics, Korean channels were mainly managed by K-Culture related companies for the promotional purpose, whereas Japanese channels were mainly managed by individuals with a variety of contents. It is presumed that Japanese individuals have been engaged in creating individual video content since the early period through video uploading platforms other than YouTube such as Niconico Douga. Since the expansion of the YouTube market will continue, it is important not only to reinforce corporations' marketing on YouTube but also to promote the uniqueness and the diversity of YouTube content for the individuals to improve the economical, sentimental, and informational contents in order to create socially effective personal contents that can be competitive in the global market.

노인소비자들은 나이와 함께 기능적인 능력이 감퇴하면서 주택내의 환경이 그들의 한계와 장애를 보완해 줄 수 있게 좀 더 지원적이기를 기대한다. 이러한 노인그룹을 포함하여 모든 사용자에게 독립적이고, 안전하며, 편리한 생활환경을 조성해 주는 것이 유니버셜 디자인이다. 이 연구의 목적은 유니버셜 디자인 개념으로 개발 된 혁신적인 욕실용품들, 즉 높이가 조절되어 앉거나 서서 사용하는 장점 등을 갖춘 세면대와 높이조절이 되는 이동식 샤워기가 장착된 걸어서 들어가며, 접이식 의자가 있는 등의 장점을 가진 욕조에 대한 소비자 의견의 검토이다. 피험자는 미국에 사는 미국노인과 한국노인(50세이상-79세까지)으로 합계 58명이었다. 실험장소는 미국서부소도시 대학의 유니버셜 디자인 연구실로, 이 대학의 협력으로 이곳에 장착된 신개발 설비를 이용하였다. 실험시기는 1997년 5월부터 11월 사이(봄, 가을)로 소비자 의견조사는 3단계로 이루어졌다. 먼저 1단계 설문조사에서는 피험자 거주주택의 욕실환경, 피험자의 목욕방법, 건강과 안전, 새로운 욕실설비에 대한 소비자 의견 등이 조사되었다. 2단계는 실제로 선정 된 욕실설비의 사용실험으로 피험자가 옷입은 상태에서 목욕을 가정하여 선택된 설비의 사용동작을 하면서(비디오 촬영) 조사자의 조사표에 의한 질문에 답하였다. 3단게는 2단계의 사용실험 후 유니버셜 디자인 된 욕실설비의 가정 내 도입의사 등의 조사를 하였다. 위에서 설명한 3단계의 소비자 의견조사 및 실험에서 얻은 결과는 다음과 같았다. 1) 미국거주 미국노인과 한국노인의 비교에서 한국노인의 평균 신장이 3cm정도 작았고, 2개이상의 욕실을 가진 비율과 학벌, 독신거주비율은 미국노인이 다소 높았고, 욕조 소유율은 한국노인이 높았다. 2) 새로운 욕실 설비에 대한 소비자 의견은 미국과 한국노인 모두 유니버셜 디자인된 새 설비의 장점을 인정하였다. 욕조와 세면조가 매력적이라 평하였고 샤워조작기가 색상구분으로 도운물과 찬물인지가 편하며, 접이식 의자가 유용하며, 문 달린 욕조의 안전 손잡이와 욕조가장자리를 잡고 안전하게 출입한다고 했다. 그러나 욕조길이와 높이에서 두 나라간에 차가 있어 앞으로 치수에 대한 것이 연구과제로 지적되었다. 3) 욕실 설비 개발 시 유니버셜 디자인 용품에 요구되는 목표는 안전하게 쓸 수 있고, 가령에 따른 신체장애요소가 커버되어 스스로 사용가능하고, 사용상 번거로움이 없어 정신적 스트레스를 주지않는 것이어야 하겠다. 4) 선택된 유니버셜 디자인 욕실설비는 표준치수의 현 욕조위치에 장착이 가능하여 앞으로 현 주택에의 교체가 가능하였다. 5) 선택된 유니버셜 디자인 욕실설비는 인체치수와 문화가 다른 두 나라 노인 모두 긍정적으로 평가하여 앞으로의 국제적 보급이 기대되었다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze performance factors of the school and community libraries in its beginning, growth, development, and expansion to identify the assignment of the movement at the present stage. In this study, we performed interviews with those concerned with the school community and library movement and collected various relevant literature. The school and community libraries movement can be divided into five stages including beginning, growth, development, expansion, and turning point. Therefore performance and significance of school and community libraries shown in the history of the movement may be summarized as follows. First, school and community libraries were established mainly in areas isolated from cultural benefits, contributing to resolving problems such as a lack of public libraries and concentration of small libraries in certain areas. Second, the movement promoted the operation of school libraries by providing books for small-sized elementary schools in farming & fishing villages and mountain villages, libraries that were insufficient in books. Third, the movement utilized the minimal personnel, books, and spaces of school libraries to provide library services to community residents, securing permanence of library services, if nothing else. Fourth, school and community libraries played the role of local community-based libraries, intensifying the community spirit of residents and vitalizing communities.
