This paper is an attempt to discuss theoretical and empirical issues embedded in a rapidly dispersing well-being lifestyle in Korea. Increase of people's interests in health and well-being reflects the fact that Korea has been developed socially and economically to the level for common people to pursue the quality of life beyond survival or basic standards of life. The term, well-being life style, was first constructed and has been dispersed through mass media. Media contributes to popularize health issues and to deliver the importance of lifestyle for health promotion to the general public. Well-being lifestyle, initiated by media and joined with commercialism, however, reveal certain negative sides as well. Health or healthy lifestyle in Western societies has been rooted theoretically in the change of health paradigm and the political emphasis on the lifestyle for health promotion in policy implications. Well-being lifestyle in Korea, in lack of theoretical and institutional foundations, is being substantially formed into distorted consumerism. Based on the sociological theories of stratification, it might be necessary to discuss the well-being consumerism in respect of tension among people with different consuming power and the destruction of solid market principles. Considering well-being consumerism as a risk factor to societal well-being, it is also necessary to examine conflicting or misleading information about well-being and to explore the scientific knowledge and principles. All these discussions and examination need to be done with interdisciplinary efforts. Especially, tasks for developing application principles for everyday life are on hands of researchers in living sciences.

The hospital setting provides many opportunities for health promotion. There are many health professionals including physicians, nurses, medical technicians who have close contact with patients and their family. Health professionals are very influential to arouse the awareness about health and illness, and to motivate to change lifestyle among patients. Thus health professionals are most effective and important human resources for health education for patients to improve recovery rates and to promote health. In spite of the importance of health professionals' role in health promotion, the Korean government has provided little support for their health education for patients. Most of the health professionals have not learned about health education theories and skills, and have little attention to educate patients to change their lifestyle. Also the health professionals themselves have relatively poor lifestyle compared with advanced western countries. To improve health education for patients and their family, following strategies and policies should be considered: reinforcing curriculum for health education in college and training course, providing practical incentives for patient education, capacity building for health education and developing guideline for patient education, training health educators, networking and collaborating between community health center and hospitals, promoting the importance of health education among patients, researching and developing health education theory and practice including cost-benefit of health education.

생활양식은 개인의 구매 의도에 가장 막대한 영향을 미치는 요소이다. 최근에 소비자들은 역동적인 환경 변화에 적응해야만 하고, 그를 위해 베이커리 제품이나 기능성 식품에 대해 점점 까다로워지는 경향을 보이고 있다. 구매, 관심, 행동에 있어 구별되는 특징을 발달시킴과 동시에 소비자들의 식생활 유형과 그 유형이 구매 의도에 미치는 영향을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 이러한 사실에 근거하여 본 연구에서는 소비자들의 행동 양식에 따라 생활양식을 분류하고, 베이커리 제품의 다양성과 질이 소비자의 구매 행동에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지 조사하였다. 설문 대상은 수도권 지역의 30, 40대 주부였으며, AIO(행위, 관심, 의견) 분석법이 생활양식을 분류하고 생활양식과 베이커리 제품의 질과 다양성 사이의 관계 또는 효과를 분석하기 위하여 사용되었다. 생활양식은 합리성 추구형, 실리성 추구형, 편리성 추구형으로 분류되었다. 합리성 추구형의 경우 정보를 가장 관심있는 분야로 선택하였고, 실리성 추구형은 맛을, 편리성 추구형은 편리성을 가장 중요한 항목으로 선택하였다. 흥미롭게도 구매 의도는 제품의 질 자체보다는 베이커리에서 제공되는 서비스에 대한 만족도에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.
