The discovery of deep-sea hydrothermal vents and their ecosystems is a monumental landmark in the history of Ocean Sciences. Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are scattered along the global mid-ocean ridges and back-arc basins. Under sea volcanic phenomena related to underlying magma activities along mid-ocean ridges generate extreme habitats for highly specialized communities of animals. Multidisciplinary research efforts during past three decades since the first discovery of hydrothermal vents along the Galapagos Rift in 1977 revealed fundamental components of physiology, ecology, and evolution of specialized vent communities of micro and macro fauna. Heterogeneous regional geological settings and tectonic plate history have been considered as important geophysical and evolutionary factors for current patterns of taxonomic composition and distribution of vent faunas among venting sites in the World Ocean basins. It was found that these communities are based on primary production of chemosynthetic bacteria which directly utilize reduced compounds, mostly $H_2S$ and $CH_4$, mixed in vent fluids. Symbioses between these bacteria and their hosts, vent invertebrates, are foundation of the vent ecosystem. Gene flow and population genetic studies in parallel with larval biology began to unveil hidden dispersal barrier under deep sea as well as various dispersal characteristics cross taxa. Comparative molecular phylogenetics of vent animals revealed that vent faunas are closely related to those of cold-water seeps in general. In perspective additional interesting discoveries are anticipated particularly with further refined and expanded studies aided by new instrumental technologies.

The purpose of this research is to clarify the valuable industrial heritages of rice mill industry complex remained in Incheon. In order to clarify the formation of integrated historical setting of rice mill industry of Incheon, we analyzed the old map of Incheon's old Jemulpo area and data on address, locations and happenings surrounding rice mill factories and relevant facilities. From here, we could find out the 4 representative rice mill industry area of integrated historical setting and 2 other supporting service area for rice mill industry in old city center of Incheon. Specifically, we could figure out the incremental stages to establish the rice mill industry in Incheon. In the first stage, the rice mill factories were established near foreign settlement area where trading offices and warehouses were equipped. And the second stage reflect the needs of expanding area for Japanese capitalism with the new landfill area. In the final stage, Korean rice mill owners established the korean laborers community near Korean residential area. This formation of integrated historical setting reflecting Incheon's rice mill industry is the identical industrial heritages and urban structures to show the tension and conflict between Japanese and Korean laborers' life in the Japanese Colonial Period.

Zhang Yu was a famous Taoist priest and poet in Yuan Dynasty, compared with the identity of Taoist and poet, his handwriting had greater influence in history. According to the relevant historical data, people at that time were mainly attracted by his Taoist identity and poetic talent. However, if we considered him as a poet,or a calligrapher to inspect,it would be often easier than facing a Taoist priest. Zhang Yu's poems and relationships can be used as some clues for our investigation of his calligraphy activities,not only would it not affect us to judge the value of his calligraphy, but also we will comprehensively and objectively analyze his calligraphy works. His early calligraphy closely followed Zhao Mengfu, in his later years, when he met Yang Weizhen, the style of writing changed greatly.During this period, what kind of changes and fundamental influence had on Zhang Yu's life and book learning thoughts experienced. Our contributions to this paper are as follows.To solve this issue,this passage will try to find clues from several representative figures and representative calligraphy works of Zhang Yu, and draw on the research results of relevant scholars to discuss the identity of Zhang Yu as a Taoist priest and the origin and style characteristics of his handwriting and probed into the status and influence of his calligraphy in history.

Although Traditional Korean Medicine had always referred to Mamok(痲木: Paresthesia) as the prodrome of stroke for a long time, yet there were only few research papers on it. Hence, the purpose of this research is to explore the relationship between Mamok(痲木; Paresthesia) as the prodrome and an attack of stroke. Setting 509 Korean impatient women as the subject of research, 264 of the whole are stroke patients and 245 are non-stroke patients. Blood tests, questionnaires, and body measurements (height, weight, waist, hip) are performed to the subjects. Basic population traits, life-style, and past history are included in the contents of questionnaires. whether or not they have experience the numbness, description about the clinical characteristics of the symptom, the body parts which the symptom occurred, the onset of the symptom, and the incidences are examined in the category inquiring the numbness of the hand and foot. After adjusting for age, unilateral numbness was associated with significantly increased risk of stroke. When adjusted for other factors(Half of WHR, History of Hypertension and Diabetes mellitus, Cigarette smoking, Alcohol drinking, Education, Marital status, Regular exercise), the risk of stroke was positively associated with unilateral numbness.(Age Adjusted Odds Ratios=2.282(95%CI=1.107-4.705), Multivariate Odds Ratios=4.105(95% CI=1.233-13.671)) Whereas no significant association was observed in the onset and the incidence of unilateral numbness. This study suggest that preceding Mamok(痲木; paresthesia) before stroke attack is may be common prodrome symptoms of stroke. Prospective cohort study on the association between Mamok(痲木;Paresthesia) as the prodrome and an attack of stroke in Korean population will be necessary.

This research purports to reconstruct how the respective historical experiences on the Japanese colonial rule and Korean War have influenced the lifes of the Korean elderly in later years from the biographical context. Nine interviews were conducted using Sch$\ddot{u}$tze's 'autobiographical-narrative interview.' Interview data collected were analyzed following Rosenthal's 'analysis of narrative-biographical interview.' How individual historical experiences have impacted the elderly's lifes mostly indicated a difference in the way they experienced such historical events. While their pro-Japanese activities and direct, historical experiences during the Japanese colonial rule and their direct, historical experiences as veterans of the Korean War have influenced their life as individualized, their indirect, historical experiences on the Japanese colonial rule and Korean War have manifested themselves as a potential life severed from the historical past at the same time. Based on the understanding of how the elderly's individual, historical experiences have exerted an influence on their life, finally, some suggestions were addressed as regards welfare practices for the elderly.

Objectives : Ge Songping(戈頌平) was a medical doctor in Qing Dynasty during the late $19^{th}$ century who annotated the original texts of four medical classics and wrote Suwenzhigui (素問指歸), Shanghanzhigui(傷寒指歸), Jinkuizhigui(金匱指歸), and Shennongbencaojingzhigui (神農本草經指歸). This paper's objective is to compile information about his writings, and shed a light on the unique characteristic of his scholarly works. Methods : Information regarding Ge Songping's life has been gathered through existing research papers and the sources revealed in the introduction. His works were divided into different formal characters as listed in part of the introduction and in the table of contents. Contents related to Yinyang(陰陽) found in Suwenzhigui were studied in order to discover his unique scholastic character. After selecting and analyzing three texts related to Yinyang, some characteristic terms and emphasized contents were studied. Results : The review yielded knowledge about Ge Songping's life, the times of his publications, the meanings of the names of his books, and basic information abou them. In terms of his scholarstic works, he used the ideas he gained from Shanghanlun(傷寒論) to form his medical theory, and used this to write annotations for four types of medical classics. The features of his theory of Yinyang can be divided into four categories. First, he coined the term Qiye(氣液) to bring contrast between yinyang as yinye(陰液) and yangqi(陽氣). Second, he shaped the temporal and spatial structure of the circulation of yinyang based on Shierdizhi(十二地支). Third, he explained the relationship between yin and yang while mainly focused on yangqi. Fourth, he explained the physiology and pathology mechanisms while focused on the circulation of ascending and descending and the idea of mutual beneficiary.

The objective of this study is to examine the costumes of the period covered in the writings of Shilhak (practical science) scholars and to research the history of costumes and their characteristics by examining how they are worn in genre paintings which are said to describe the actual life of the period. This should be studied in order to correctly establish the history of costumes. To begin with, through the writings of the representative Shilhak scholars who are thought to have affected the changes in ordinary costumes for woman, this study examined how ordinary woman of the period looked in their costumes and how they regarded various costumes they had. Then, how their viewpoints of costumes influenced ordinary costumes was investigated. Not only relics, but what was commonly worn, as they appeared in the genre paintings that contain information about daily living of that period, were researched chronologically. The results of this study showed that the change in ordinary costumes for woman in the late Chosun period was affected by Shilhak scholars who had ideologies of Shilsakusi (use of positive methods in studying), Yiyonghusaeng (the promotion of commerce and industry and the development of techonologies), and Ky ngsech'iyong (pursuit of stability in a rural economy). Moreover, after those changes there were many more changes. However, the criticism of costumes of that time and the will of revolution affected some time, costumes changed directly. The forms of the costumes had been changed in a variety of ways following the tendencies of the times, but the origin of today's hanbok (Korean traditional dress) had already been fixed in the late Choson period. Yet, today's hanbok are for special occasions, not worn as ordinary clothing. Thus, there are several reasons why the hanbok is not suitable for daily life. One of the reasons is that Korean could not cope with the western costumes indepen-dently imported during Japanese occupation in the last period of the Choson Dynasty and con-tinuing the Japanese Colony. Thus, only a part of the ordinary costume of the late Choson period has remained until now.
