Purpose: This study aimed to describe the meaning of marriage and childbirth among Korean female university students living in the United States, who are influenced both by Korean culture at home and American culture in social contexts. Methods: This qualitative study used phenomenological approaches. Data were collected through individual in-depth interviews with five Korean female university students living in the United States. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi's method to derive the meaning of marriage and childbirth. Results: From the data, 239 meaningful statements, 49 meaning formations, 22 themes, and 12 theme clusters were extracted. Additionally, five major categories emerged. These categories were 1) marriage as an opportunity for self-growth, 2) the mirror of life: parents, 3) oneself who cannot give up, 4) a desire to live a stable life, and 5) ambivalence on the culture of two countries. Conclusion: To improve the positive meaning of marriage and childbirth, a positive role model such as a happy married life of parents at home must be ensured. Finally, institutional strategies should be established to support the balance between home and work, as well as various policies which support women's pregnancy and childbirth.

본 연구는 결혼이민자의 관점에서 결혼생활의 의미를 탐색하고자 Giorgi의 현상론적 방법론에 따라 진행되었다. 연구 결과 여성결혼이주민의 결혼생활 경험의 의미는 '사랑, 그 다양한 빛깔의 끌림', '남편, 참 좋은 사람', '맞닥뜨린 현실', '자녀, 안정과 기쁨 그리고 버거움', '한국 아줌마처럼 살아내라는 남편', '부대끼고 아련한 시부모와 친정부모', '결혼은 나의 힘: 노력하게 하는 원동력', '결혼생활을 넘어 공동체로' 이렇게 8가지로 도출되었다. 참여자들이 경험하는 결혼생활의 의미는 사랑에 끌려 결혼한 참 좋은 사람과 낯설고 두렵지만 부대끼면서 한국 아줌마처럼 살아나가기였다. 이는 결혼이민자를 대상화하여 다문화가정에 대한 부정적인 전형화를 넘어서는 결과였다.

This study examines how university students perceive dating and marriage through metaphorical analysis. The data were collected using a metaphor analysis questionnaire. The participants comprised 261 university students located across the country. They were asked, 'Dating is ___________ because it is ___________.', 'A marriage is ___________ because it is ___________.' Resultantly, the data have been categorized according to time as the beginning, process, and result of dating and marriage, respectively. According to the criteria of time, two perspectives on dating and marriage were categorized: the egocentric perspective and a relation-centered perspective. Additionally, similarities and differences were found in the categories. In the dating metaphors, 208 positive expressions (73.9%) were common which is significantly higher that the others. While positive expression (33.5%), neutral expression (42.8%), and negative expression (23.7%) were common in the marriage metaphors. However, the ratio between egocentric and relation-centered perspectives is different for each area because the meaning of dating and marriage in the relationship between oneself and another person changes over time. This exploration of university students' perspectives on dating and marriage is expected to provide implications for social institutions and policy support directions for positive perceptions of dating and marriage.
