Recently, some games with physical and mental healing function are released. The healing games tend to make people relax. With the features of simple healing contents, the healing games provide users psychological stability more than strong stimulus. The games don't give users continuous excitement, so the popularity of the games goes down soon. In this paper, we investigate domestic and international healing games on the basis of the platform, such as mobile, console and PC. We analyze the feature of healing games with the four keys to fun(Hard Fun, Easy Fun, Serious Fun, People Fun) suggested by Nicole Lazzro. By this analysis, we find how much of the 4 keys to fun the games include and the correlation between the 4 keys to fun and the popularity of the healing games.

We have established the importance and value of healing through the meaning of healing and foreign cases. that humans come from nature and return to nature I think it is extremely inevitable, and while living, They set their goal and finish it gradually. Then they reach the goal. You can enjoy the effect of healing by creating an atmosphere of nature that comes from nature and living in it. The use of wood inside the building is the most comfortable healing condition, and as you can see from the case of Japan, The building of Sunny Hills made of wood outside reminds me of a magpies house. Indoor desk or book case made of wood make, warmer at mosphere, and the effect of healing becomes even greater if you take the plants. In the ceiling, if you paint pictures of clouds, trees, sun, etc., and apply blue or pink color that makes you relax, then the effect of healing is doubled. Through this study, I could forming living space being in touch with nature and using natural materials which is basic of healing an bring the effect of healing.

SBS [Healing Camp] seems like having a different sound usage from other entertainment programs. After content analysis, I found that [Healing Camp] uses much more music & sound effects than [Muhandojeon]. Music & sound effects of [Healing Camp] has functions of tautological informing, uplush of emotion or Ancrage, narrating or Relais. It is very similar to television subtitle. Positive uses of music & sound effects are expected to catch the attention of audience and to increase the ratings. But [Healing Camp] uses music & sound effects very positively and systematically and opens a new dimension of narratives.

This research aims to suggest the possibility of functional culture contents based on interdisciplinary methodologies, especially for people who have Autism Spectrum Conditions, or those who have disabilities on express and receive gamsung (emotions). Recently, the development of application technologies in smartphones and tablet computers needs of functional culture contents, which are connected with the gamsung system. Moreover, the potential of marketplace of functional culture contents is emerging, as can be seen from the success of Augmentative and Alternative Communications (AAC) applications. Therefore, with the development of more applications that prevent and resolve Gamsung Disabilities anticipatively, there will be a positive economic effect of reducing back on intervention expenses as well as the construction of new contents ecosystem. So, in this research, we will attempt to make an approach of using the cultural semiotics methodology in finding attributes and features of applications that help to keep mental stability and balance for people with gamsung Disabilities. Particularly, this research will suggest an interdisciplinary theory on healing contents making methodology, using contents analysis; user interface (UI) analysis; and user experience (UX) analysis on existing smart healing applications.

The study aims to develop horticulture-based VR content so that users can find rest in their chaotic daily lives. Healing contents that increase user participation, immersion, emotional stability, and creativity and concentration were implemented by using teleports, plant illustrations, inventory, NPC functions, and drawing games. Garden viewing content using VR technology requires technical research and development to overcome the difference from reality, which can increase the reality of the content and the completeness of the experience. The reality of the VR experience will be increased by using high-resolution displays, high-performance processors, and sensors, and user feedback will be collected and continuously improved. Through this, users present new methods by relieving stress, feeling emotional stability, and providing experiences that are impossible in reality.

This study examines the process of internalization and elaboration of the logic of competition in the post-IMF era through the genealogy of the survival program. Post-IMF is based on disaster reality, which reveals a specific emotional structure related to the competition, if the narrative of overcoming the IMF event finds narrative models that can be sufficiently reconciled between communityism and individual success. This study also examines the process of disaster preparedness through survival form and narrative structure embedded in such form. Thus, this study reconstructed the diachronic change to track the change of the survival program and the subsequent narrative change. Relative to the time of the healing-mentor, the survival program seems to be declining, but rather seems to have created a new transition through the logic of self-development contained in the healing-mentoring discourse. this logic leads to be ghettoized hierarchy of preferences. Now, the survival program is to perform fantastic surrogate satisfaction by delegating competition to a narrow self-directed area rather than to a big empathy within the community.
