This study was conducted to redesign hotel robes based on Korean images. Hotel robes are furnished at many Korean hotels to increase the level of their guests' satisfaction toward their hotel services. The current hotel robe has several flaws in utility and design. Also, the robes register a low level on guests' satisfaction while generating high cleaning cost. Consequently, improvements in the hotel robes' material, motifs, style, and color were needed. The current one-piece, cotton towel weave robes used in hotels are white and pale. Half of the hotel guests never wear the hotel robes during their stay, because they are unattractive and most Korean hotels provide a robe similar in design. Furthermore, these robes are undistinguishable from those found at other countries. Nevertheless, Korean hotel managers feel that the hotel robe is an important tool to express its hotel image and to increase guests' satisfaction of their services. Most hotel managers and consumers agreed that it is necessary to design hotel robes based on Korean images. They believe that redesigning the hotel robes based on Korean images would induce hotel guests to wear them and at the same time feel part of the Korean traditional culture. The Korean traditional motifs of Taegug, Un (cloud), JuJag (phoenix), and Kumkwan (gold crown) were used in the new design of the hotel robes. The style of new hotel robes is the Korean traditional Pho of the Three Kingdoms. The colors of new hotel robes are white and pink. Forty-three examiners evaluated the newly designed robes for their aesthetic, symbolic and distinctional values. They concurred that the new robes were much better than the current ones.

The most fundamental and important medical treatment is science of acupuncture and moxibution, which is based on twelve channels theory. Meridian is a pathway that conveys material and energy in a human body. Twelve channels are divided into channels of hand & foot, channels of yin & yang. Yang channels are divided into taiyang, yangming, shaoyang, yin channels are divided into taiyin, shaoyin, jueyin. These are referred to twelve channels, and this theory is being used for diagnosis and test in oriental medicine. Meridian-doin-tajiquan is born, combining taijiquan which is recently handed down from China and Korean traditional method for health protection and treatment in ancient times and twelve channels, three yin & yang theory. I report this because meridian-doin-tajiquan which is non-medical and non-invasive way can be used in the treatment of disease, just like three yin & yang theory, the heart of the meridian theory, and Gehapchu theory are adjusted in the clinical science of acupuncture and moxibution. And I report this because I could mater the appropriateness of the traditional theory and I believed this corresponded with it, training myself by meridian-din-tajiquan. It is considered that this will be used in the treatment of pain disease of muscles and joints system and the diabetes, hypertension, obesity caused by stress in the near future.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of Taegeuk acupuncture on reducing mental stress by analyzing heart rate variability in Soyangin. Methods : Eight Soyangin-diagnosed women participated in this study. They were randomly divided into group A and group B. Each participant went through 3 sessions every week with 1 week of washout period in between each session. HRV was measured three times at every session; at baseline, after administering mentally stressful circumstances and after applying either one of simple rest, Soyangin Taegeuk acupuncture or Soeumin Taegeuk acupuncture. This study was designed as a crossover clinical trial. After same initial simple resting session for both groups at week 1, acupuncture for group A were executed in the order of Soyangin Taegeuk acupuncture and Soeumin Taegeuk acupuncture at week 2 and 3 respectively, with acupuncture for group B conducted in reverse order. Results : Simple rest and Soeumin Taegeuk acupuncture did not show the significant changes in response to LF(norm) and HF(norm) after stress stimuli. Soyangin Taegeuk acupuncture did, however, significantly decrease LF(norm) and increase HF(norm). Soyangin Taegeuk acupuncture, compared to Soeumin Taegeuk acupuncture, significantly stabilized autonomic nervous system. Conclusions : This study suggests that Soyangin Taegeuk acupuncture might be an effective means of stabilizing mental stress-induced imbalance of autonomic nervous system for Soyangin.

오늘날 다원적 가치의 문화 환경에서 '어울림'이란 그 고유한 문화를 지속케 할 수 있는 생명적 원리이다. 글쓴이는 한글창제의 디자인 적 의의와 한글의 조형성과 우수성에 대한 평가 준거를 어울림의 관점에서 제시함으로써 '넓은 뜻의 디자인'이라는 지평에서 '한글의 디자인적 의의'를 조명해 보려 한다. 이러한 관점에서 훈민정음 창제의 큰 뜻은 '다름'에 대한 깨달음의 실천, 사람을 '어엿비 여기는' 인본주의적 생각, 배우고 쓰기 '쉬움'에 바탕을 두고 있었고, 철학적 터전은 동양의 근본 사상인 태극 음양오행설에 두었다. 한글이란 사람 소리를 자연 철학적 관점에서 보고 그 소리의 생성과 조직을 음양오행의 역학에서 추출한 성운학 이론과 원리에 따라 과학적이고 체계적인 글자로 디자인한 것이다. 곧 뜻과 꼴이 맞는 어울림이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 훈민정음 창제를 디자인 적 관점에서 보아, 제 모습 제 말에 어울리는 생명 적이고 질서 있는 시스템이자, 자연 성음의 원리에 맞고, 끝없이 구르고 변통 자재하는 유기적 디자인의 탄생으로 보았다. 나아가 한글 창제에 담긴 넓고 깊은 뜻과 포부가 '어울림'의 뜻에 맞는 완전함을 지향하는 '큰_디자인 짓'으로 규정하고, '어울림' 디자인 가치의 전형으로 제시하고자 한다. 이를 통해, '훈민정음 창제 정신을 되짚어 보며, 어울림'이 새로운 디자인 사상을 잉태하는 씨앗으로서, 표현적 가치와 잣대로, 또 이 시대의 디자인을 풍요롭게 하는 슬기로 작용하기를 바란다.

Purpose: This study was done to investigate the effect of Tai Chi Qigong exercise program on insulin resistance and blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study used a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Participants included 39 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (ages between 40-70)(experimental group, 19, control group, 20). The Tai Chi Qigong exercise program consisted of 5 minute warming up, 30-minute main exercise, and 5 minute cooling down, and was conducted twice a week for 10 weeks. The outcome variables were insulin resistance (proinsulin, C-peptide, insulin, insulin sensitivity index) and blood glucose (fasting, post prandial 2hr, HbA1c). Data was analyzed using ANCOVA, with pre-test values as covariates, to examine difference between pre and post measures between the two groups. Results: The Tai Chi Qigong was effective in lowering postprandial 2hr blood glucose. Conclusion: Twice a week 10 week-Tai Chi Qigong exercise seems to be too short to improve insulin excretion or resistance, and fasting blood sugar and HbA1C in patients with type 2 DM. A Tai Chi Qigong program at least 3 times per week or longer is recommended.

장현광(張顯光)은 조선시대 자연학자 가운데 대표적인 인물 가운데 한 사람이다. 이 글은 그의 우주론 속에 함축된 상수학적 요소의 의의와 한계를 검토하는 데 목표를 둔다. 역학에서 상과 수는 만물의 분별과 그 상호관계, 그리고 그것들의 시간적 질서를 표현하는 개념 도구이다. 그것들은 음양을 결합함으로써 내부 운동인을 확보하고, 우주 만물에 대한 상수학적 해석과 설명의 틀을 구성하였다. 상수학적 우주론의 핵심적인 주장은 우주가 시 공간적으로 유한하며, 그것과 반대로 리(태극)는 무한하다고 하는 것이다. 리가 시 공간적 무한하다는 것은 도덕원리가 절대적이고 항상적임을 의미한다. 이를 통해 장현광은 자신의 우주론이 주자학의 도덕형이상학과 순조롭게 결합될 수 있도록 하였다. 장현광은 역서(易書)를 자연 이해의 준거 또는 범형(範形)으로 강조하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 불완전하나마 소옹에게서 나타났던 법칙 객관주의를 질곡하고, 그의 법칙 개념으로 하여금 경험이나 지식의 확장과 더불어 스스로를 갱신해 가기 어렵게 만들었다. 이러한 이론적 한계에도 불구하고 그의 상수학적 우주론은 당시 성리학의 자연학적 근거를 마련했다는 점에서 긍정적으로 평가할 수 있다.

To investigate effects of cognitive function improvement whether against Taegeuk ginseng on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in rats. All experiments were conducted in three groups: the control group (CTR), the scopolamine 0.4mg/kg (SCP), and the scopolamine (SCP+T) treated with Taegeuk ginseng 100 mg/kg. Taegeuk ginseng 100 mg/kg daily was orally administered for one month and treated with scopolamine was only for 7 consecutive days on the Morris water maze task. 3 weeks after oral administration of Taegeuk ginseng, subjects were performed the Morris water maze test for 8 days and then the open-field exploration test which to assessed for cognitive function improvement. After behavioral testing, subjects were sacrificed and microdissected brains for neurochemical analysis. In the cognitive-behavioral test, long-term administration of Taegeuk ginseng improved spatial navigation learning task compared with the impeded by scopolamine treatment. In neurochemistry, the expression of the synaptic marker PSD95 (postsynaptic density protein 95) was increased in the hippocampus compared to the scopolamine group. Also, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression was significantly increased in the taegeuk ginseng administration group. These data suggested that long-term administration of taegeuk ginseng might improve cognitive-behavioral functions on hippocampal related spatial learning memory, and it was correlated with neurotropic and synaptic reinforcement. In conclusion, treatment with taegeuk ginseng may positive outcome on learning and memory deficit disorders.
