  • This article examines Bong Joon-ho's science fiction/horror film, The Host (2006) and interrogates its depiction of a contemporary South Korean family in crisis. The writer considers the film as a resonant cultural artefact and a manifestation of particularly new-millennial anxieties concerned with the continued involvement of the United States in South Korean affairs, fears of an erosion of traditional family values and mistrust of officious, state endorsed bureaucracy. The Host emerges as a profoundly visceral depiction of an ordinary family set against everyone with no one to turn to except each other.

  • 본 연구는 1986년부터 2008년까지 해외기업을 인수한 284개 한국의 상장기업들을 대상으로 인수기업의 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준이 국제 인수합병(M&A) 성과에 미치는 영향에 대하여 실증 분석하였다. 본 연구의 분석결과, 인수기업의 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준이 국제 인수합병 성과와 음(-)의 관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 또한 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준과 문화적 거리의 상호작용은 국제 인수합병 성과와 음(-)의 관계가 있으며, 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준과 관련형 인수의 상호작용도 국제 인수합병 성과와 음(-)의 관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 본 연구는 문화적 거리가 클수록 또는 관련형 인수일수록 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준은 국제 인수합병 성과에 더욱 부정적인 영향을 주는 것을 보여주었다. 이러한 결과는 국제 인수합병 성과의 결정요인으로서 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준의 역할에 대한 이해를 높이는 것은 물론, 문화적 거리 및 관련형 인수와 국제 인수합병 성과간의 관계에 대한 설명에 있어서도 피인수기업에 대한 통제수준을 고려함으로써 기존 연구들을 보완해 주고 있다.

  • This study highlights the homogeneity in the heritage of the costume cultures between the Gulf of Aden, a part of the Horn region of Africa and the Arab region of West. Asia. Specifically, a cross-cultural perspective is used to examine the similarities between the two regions based on their (1) geographic living cultures and (2) the use of a costume accessory called Burga-a face veil. The current trend in research on the traditional costume culture of Africa mostly ties art with the traditional costume culture and examines its from an aesthetic or animalism perspective rather than from a cross cultural Perspective. Compared to Previous research in this area this study used literature reviews and Pictorial analysis to analyze costume cultures from a cross-cultural perspective. The Burga, which is worn in the low lands of the Horn region, which is located between the West Asia and African continents, as well as the Arab region, shows a reciprocal cultural exchange between the two regions. Similarities can be found in the shape, design, decorative elements, and the way the Bursa was worn in two regions. Although the Burga as a face veil is only a small part of a costume, it reaffirms the similar living cultures and geographic characteristics of the two regions. As the living culture environment becomes similar around the world, this study should help with cross culture negotiations as well as forther the development of traditional costume research.

익숙한 정도가 다른 핫소스를 사용한 매운 닭구이에 대한 한국인과 미국인의 교차문화적 인지 연구 (Exploration of Cross-cultural Perception of Spicy Chicken Made Using Hot Sauces with Different Degrees of Flavor Familiarity in Korean and US Consumers)

  • The objective of this study was to explore the role of familiarity in cross-cultural product perception and perception changes according to food systems (hot sauce and spicy-chicken) in Korean and US consumers. Free choice profiling was conducted by Korean and US consumers on four spicy-chicken samples made using four hot sauce samples. Half of the hot sauce samples were selected to be more familiar to US consumers and vice versa to Korean consumers. A previous study that investigated cross-cultural perceptions of the same four hot sauce samples in US and Korean consumers was incorporated in this study. For distinct sample differences, US and Korean consumers perceived products similarly. However, for less obvious differences, flavor familiarity seemed to affect consumers' product perceptions. In addition, product perceptions changed more dramatically according to food systems for familiar samples in each country. The findings of this study show that consumers' product perception can be affected by flavor familiarities.

  • This is a cross-sectional study designed to analyze the correlation between the structural and social variables and the pattern of contraction and deletion of the copula verb in the speech of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) speakers in Athens in Georgia, USA using a questionnaire. The results show that the frequency of copula contraction is higher than that of deletion in all factor groups including the age of the speakers where this study found that younger speakers tend to have higher frequency of contraction and deletion of the copula than older speakers. This study analyzes this as a function of the fact that younger speakers of AAVE are conscious of the linguistic and social differences between AAVE speakers and speakers of Standard American English (SAE) and they consciously make choices regarding which norm to use at which contexts to satisfy their communicative and socio-cultural needs. This sort of conscious social behavior is not likely to disappear with age rather it might increase as a correlate of the perceived physical, socio-cultural and psychological distance between AAVE speakers and speakers of other varieties. This study shows that such perceived linguistic, socio-cultural and psychological distance has negative effects on pedagogy and I proffer the remedy.

  • Abusive language used by college students reflects current social attitudes and values. Adopting a comparative and cross-cultural perspective, this study examines the frequency and perceived severity of abusive language in English and Mandarin Chinese. Because abusive language often includes sexual connotations, this paper employs a particular concentration on sexism. Gender differences in the use of abusive language illustrate a male bias across cultures.
