21세기 화두를 한마디로 말하면 건강일 것이다. 건강을 위해서 각종 운동 방법 및 운동기구와 건강 보조식품의 판매가 급성장을 하고 있으나, 우리가 섭취하는 음식 즉 식단에 대해서는 무관심하다. 예전에 비해 먹거리인 식재료는 매우 풍부해졌으나 영양 불균형은 오히려 증가하는 추세이며, 잘못된 식생활 습관으로 발생하는 만성질환인 성인병과 생활 습관병의 발생은 심각한 사회적 병리현상으로 나타나고 있다. 따라서 식품도 이젠 맛, 영양을 강조하던 단계에서 인체의 생리적 기능 항진과 질병의 예방 및 치료가 가능한 기능성 식품으로 발전하고 있다. 약선은 동양철학 및 동양 의학의 원조라고 할 수 있는 중국의 의학과 화려한 음식 문화가 만들어낸 것으로 음식에 한약재의 유용성분을 넣어 기능성을 살린 먹거리로 한의학의 약식동원을 기본 이론으로 하고 있다. 중국약선에서는 식품을 차거나 시원한 식품인 한량(한량), 따뜻하거나 뜨거운 (온열) 식품, 즉 한(한), 량(량), 온(온), 열(열) 4가지로 분류하고, 쓴맛(고), 단맛(감), 매운(신), 짠맛(함), 신맛(산) 등 5가지 기본맛으로 식품을 구분하고 있다. 약선식품의 작용은 질병의 예방과 신체 장기를 자양하거나, 기혈, 골격, 피부 등을 자양하고, 노화방지와 질병의 치료작용이 있다. 우리나라에서는 일부 궁중음식원과 산사 음식에서 약선 개념을 도입하고 있으나 아직까지 체계적인 이론 정립과 연구는 미비한 실정으로 본 연구를 통해 궁중의 약선 관련 문헌을 고찰해 보고, 우리나라 실정에 적합한 약선의 도입과 연구발전에 필요한 기본자료로 제공하고, 약선을 이용한 새로운 건강 기능성 조리개발에 도움이 되고자 하였다.

Yaksun, a medicinal diet, has been traditionally prepared and applied (based on theories in oriental medicine) for the modulation of disease symptoms and signs. However, restaurants that serve and claim Yaksun mainly focus on stamina foods. A consistent definition of Yaksun has not been provided, which can confuse the public interpretation of Yaksun. The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception of Yaksun in Korean adults living in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Chungbuk regions. Among the participants (M=55, F=168, 25y), only 10.4% understood the definition of Yaksun (mainly through the broadcast media). The frequency of Yaksun consumed when eating out was 2~3 times per month in 50.2% of participants. The main reason for choosing a Yaksun menu (46.3% of participants) when eating out was for health. The mean satisfaction score of Yaksun was $3.5{\pm}0.8$ on the five point Likert scale. Participants highly agreed ($3.8{\pm}0.8$) that Yaksun is composed of nutritious foods combined with oriental medicinal herbs for the treatment of disease, which was significantly higher in groups with learning experience on Yaksun (p<0.05). Interestingly, participants showed neutral to the description, that a diet without oriental medicinal herbs is not Yaksun ($3.1{\pm}1.0$), which was significantly different between genders (p<0.05). Men recognized more than women that Yaksun should be based on oriental medical theory (p<0.05) and should be prepared for the prevention or treatment of diseases (p<0.05). In conclusion, the concept and terminology of Yaksun need to be defined and publicized in modern diet.

With increasing interest in the health and safety of food served in restaurants, more emphasis is being placed on the importance of health and food. As a result, Yaksun cuisine with new added effects and image is becoming more popular as a way to improve people's health. This study analyzed the effects of selection attributes relating to Yaksun cuisine on customer satisfaction and intention to maintain relationship in order to understand various needs of consumers as they relate to health food. The results showed that, among selection attributes of Yaksun cuisine, price, safety, and health were found to have significant effects on customer satisfaction; however, the effect of quality on satisfaction was not verified.

The perception level of yaksun for the intake respondents was higher than that of non-intake respondents. Additionally, many respondents agreed to varied menu development and convenient-food development of yaksun. Intake respondents showed higher level of agreement for the varied menu development of yaksun than non-intake respondents. On the other hand, four fifths of the respondents showed that they would be willing to eat yaksun in the future. The level of willingness to eat yaksun in the future for the intake respondents was higher than that of non-intake respondents. Additionally, the respondents who knew yaksun showed higher level of willingness to eat it than those who did not know it. Finally, the result of binary logistic regression analysis for intake behavior of yaksun showed that gender, educational level, and the awareness of yaksun were significant. On the basis of these results, not only the promotion of yaksun to consumers but also the development of convenient foods, varied menus for different age groups, and menus with cheap prices are needed to raise yaksun popularity.
