The market of conferences and expos of traditional/ complementary and alternative medicine has not been mature enough while interests in those medicines are growing fast. Meanwhile, some related events in Europe, North America, and Asia, held on regular basis, have reached to the international level in size, such as CAMExpo The Complementary, Natural & Healthcare Show in Europe, Integrative Healthcare Symposium in North America, Ayurveda Congress & Arogya Expo in India, International Conference and Exhibition of the Modernization of Chinese Medicine & Health Products in Hong Kong. Those events have been held for 10 years or so, initiated their own features, and secured their own regular booth exhibitors and visitors. They open the homepage on the internet one or two years before their events are held and vigorously advertise their events on yearly basis. To succeed in, and bear fruits from, the 2013 World Traditional Medicine Expo in Sancheong, it is needed to analyze strong points of the events above and benchmark a practical timeline and technical road map to the 2013 Expo from them.

The purpose on this study is to grasp the clothing habits and problems of the Chinese-Koreans in Yanbian, China through the fact-finding survey about the clothing habits for the Chinese-Koreans in Yanbian, China who have frequent exchanges with the North Korea and have relatively similar home culture preparing for the unification of North and South Korea, also it is to make the basic data for improving their qualities of life. As for the method of study, it centered on the investigation by the questionnaire on the spot and it referred to the data like domestic and abroad literature, field observation, interview and internet, etc. as a reference. Also it centered on the girl college students and the housewives in Yangil City as an object of research. Accordingly, the result of this study is as follows. The Yanbian is the largest Chinese-Koreans group of people in the China. The economic environment in Yanbian is in the middle of the whole China. With the open-economy of China and the contact with the foreign culture, especially with Korea, the 1960s and 1990s coexist in. The Chinese-Koreans in Yangil spend about 1,425 CNY as clothing expenses averages a year, and the estimated value of holding amount of clothing is about 27 suits. They recognize the clothing made in Korea as high-quality and high-price of high-quality articles. They have high interest in the Korean fashion as the younger generation. They prefer to modern, active, refined and mature atmosphere in the clothing atmosphere, but they still do not reach to the level yet in actual. They generally have strong tendency with the preference of black color or dark color because they have small holding amount. The field materials of fiber did not become high-quality articles because they hold in the level of 1960s in Korea. So, the color level of Chinese-Koreans in Yanbian is still low.

Since most medical facilities and medical personnel are concentrated in urban areas in South Korea, an imbalance of access to medical facilities causes a gap in medical resource availability between urban and rural areas. Accessibility to medical facilities is a means of assessment that evaluates a measure of inequality in utilization of medical resources. The evaluation of accessibility uses Euclidean distance, in general; however, this method has its limits in that Euclidean distance cannot reflect actual distance. This study aims to estimate real road distance from village halls to medical facilities in rural areas using Open Application Programming Interface (Open API) of an internet portal site. Using real road distance, we evaluated medical accessibility and compared it with Euclidean distance. The accessibility to primary medical institutions was valued relatively well, but secondary and tertiary medical institutions were vulnerable in Pyeonchang-gun. Comparing Euclidean distance with real road distance from village halls to medical facilities, real road distance appeared to be approximately 1.4 times that of Euclidean distance. This calculation is similar to the circuity factor of Gangwon-do in Korea that estimated to fix the limits of Euclidean distance and assumed real road distance.
