The purpose of this study was to know the changing process of ethnic identity of the Korean-Chinese in South Korea. To this end, in-depth interviews with 12 Korean-Chinese Korean had been conducted in order to know how their ethnic identity was changing while they are settling in South Korea. Results had found that the changing of ethnic identity closely associated with their cultural adaptation process. There are three s changing stages of their ethnic identity. First, in the initial period of entering to South Korea, the Korean-Chinese were excited and filled with the hope for their 'homeland'. Second, while integrating into mainstream society they feel the crisis of ethnic identity. Social exclusion led them to reconsider their own Korean-Chinese identity. Third, at the present stage there are three different cognitions for their own identity--- Korean, Chinese, neither Chinese nor Korean. This study has offered a view to understand the acculturation process of the Korean-Chinese settling in South Korea. Without a doubt, their self-cognition of ethnic identity has a big impact on social integration in South Korean. Therefore, Korea mainstream society with Korean-Chinese needs to work together on building their own healthy ethnic identity.

본 연구는 국내 외국인 가정부 고용에 대한 연구로 국내 가정부 고용의 역사와 추이를 살펴 본 후, 외국인 가정부의 고용현황 및 실태를 분석하였다. 본 연구는 가정학계 쪽의 문헌 및 신문자료의 검토를 통해 조선시대 이후, 특히 1960년대 이후 내국인 가정부의 고용추이와 특성을 파악하였고, 지역별 사회복지관과 YWCA 담당자 전화조사를 통해 현재 국내 가정부 노동시장의 수요와 공급 정도를 살펴 본 후, 법무부 출입국관리국의 통계자료와 2002년 불법체류 자진신고자료 및 2001년 말부터 2004년 초까지 인터넷 웹사이트를 통한 외국인 가정부 구인구직 광고내용을 분석하여, 국내 외국인 가정부 고용의 현황과 특성을 파악하였다. 이 연구의 주요 발견은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 그간 국내에서 외국인 가정부가 활성화되지 못한 가장 중요한 이유는 다른 아시아 신흥공업국에 비해 국내 기혼여성 특히 중류층 이상의 고학력 기혼여성의 취업이 저조하였기 때문이다. 동시에, 하류층 기혼여성의 취업기회도 제한적이므로, 현재까지는 내국인 시간제 파출부 시장에서 수요보다는 공급이 더 많기 때문이다. 둘째, 필리핀인 여성 대신에 중국동포가 국내의 외국인 가정부 시장을 독점한 이유는 중국동포는 한국어는 물론 우리의 풍습을 많이 유지하고 있어서 이들을 고용하는 것이 더 편하기 때문이다. 그러나 그동안 주로 40대 이상의 중${\cdot}$고령층의 중국동포 여성이 국내로 유입되었다는 점도 이들을 '탈여성화'된 그리고 '모성적'인 입주가정부로 활용하게 된 중요한 이유이다.

The variation of recognition to the local community at the migration early and the present and their response for overcoming their pending issues are studied through this, To understand the reality and conflict they encounter, the effort for overcoming the pending issues, the inner change of their own community, their fixed direction and so on becomes the core variables for integrating them to our society. They have formed the enormous cluster and have been already developed as the minority group. They are doing 'the struggle for recognition' for being recognized from the dominant group and trying to approach the politics for overcoming the inferiority of power. Accordingly, the intervention of social welfare to this minority group should be a more active working to protect the fragmentation of our society which can be resulted from the increasing influx of the foreigners and be also an approach to mutual enlightenment for making our society adapt to the phenomena of multi-nations and multi-cultures and for accepting them as the population.

This study was conducted in order to examine the effects of patient safety culture perception and patient safety knowledge on patient safety activities of Chinese-Korean caregivers. A convenience sample of 102 Chinese-Korean caregivers were recruited. Factors influencing Chinese Korean caregivers' patient safety activities included patient safety culture perception and Korean speaking ability. These variables explained 45.8% of the variance in patient safety activities. These results suggest that it is necessary to strengthen patient safety culture perception and to develop some program to enhance their speaking skills in order to improve Chinese Korean caregivers' patient safety activities.

This paper aims at examining how sijo works, including ancient sijo works, those published before the 1960s, those written by China-residing Koreans, and those published in the 2000s, convey the poetic meaning in terms of sentence structure. Firstly, ancient sijo works, those published before the 1960s, and those written by China-residing Koreans, have sentences. whose meaning the readers can easily grasp, with simple structures and little rhetoric words. But moderns works published In the 2000s (modern sijo works after) are mingled with too many rhetoric expressions, sometimes misused. Secondly, ancient sijo works, those published before the 1960s, and those written by China-residing Koreans, having a clarified subject-verb context. are easily understood by the readers. But, in modern sijo works, there are many cases with an unclarified subject-verb context and redundant rhetoric words, which will cause misunderstanding of the meaning of the work. Thirdly, in ancient sijo works. those published before the 1960s and those written by China-residing Koreans, each of the three statements (called in) in a stanza is separate from the others in context. But, in some modern sijo works, the first and second statements (called chojang and jungjang) fall into just rhetoric parts for the last statement (called jongjang), and each of them is not read as an independent statement. Fourthly, there are some cases whose forms are distant from those of siio works. but are written in three statements like traditional sijo works. Regular poems, though written in regular rhythm, should be also acoustically regular. Sijo works should be easily understood when recited. If not, they are basically far from sijo works. If modern sijo works should overcome their easy expressions and simplicity of themes, they should be composed through using not complicated sentence structures but brand-new metaphors, clear images, and fresh themes.

In addition, through group activities, we have endeavored to protect the rights of the individual as well as the whole society and to improve the image and to integrate with the mainstream society. Through this reconstruction of life history, we can understand the life situation of Chinese leaders and know about the qualities they want to receive in Korean society. Therefore, it is suggested that this reconstruction of life history implies social welfare practice.

Recently, Korea is facing a trend of a fast-paced change towards a multi-cultural society, accompanied by the consequential increase in population and many changes in the peripheral environment. Particularly, the influx of multi-cultural families in Ansan City is increasing every year, but their housing environment remains in poor conditions. Actually, the research on housing policy for multi-cultural families and their housing satisfaction is restrictive. It is therefore necessary to research on how to overcome this problem, and what realistic policy alternatives are required. The purpose of this study is to present some policy alternatives to improve the housing satisfaction of the Korean-Chinese residing in Ansan City. To this end, this study conducted empirical analysis with a focus on Korea-Chinese multi-cultural families living in Ansan City through a questionnaire. As the analysis method, this study conducted frequency analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, cross analysis, and regression analysis, and used the statistical package-SPSS 20.0 as an analysis tool. As a result of the research, first, it was found that their awareness of the government housing policy is insufficient; second, they had a lot more hardships in housing due to the problem of the rising house prices caused by urban development & regeneration; third, in terms of housing tenure type, there was a higher proportion of a lease on a deposit basis and monthly rent than owner-occupied housing. Hence, this study drew the conclusion that the Korean-Chinese multi-cultural family's housing environment needs to be improved and policy support is required for Korean-Chinese. In addition, this study gives great significance in providing these research results as basic materials which make it possible to inquire into mutually reciprocal practice plan and strategic alternatives for a multi-cultural families from now on.
