In recent years, consumer clothing behaviors have undergone significant changes due to global phenomena such as climate change, pandemics, and advances in IT technology. Laundry behaviors closely connected to how consumers handle clothes and their clothing lifecycle have also experienced considerable transformations. However, research on laundry behavior has been limited despite its importance in understanding consumer clothing habits. This study employed text mining analysis of social data spanning the past decade to explore overall trends in consumer laundry behavior, aiming to understand key topics of interest and changes over time. Through LDA topic modeling analysis, nine topics were identified. They were grouped into subjects, targets, methods, and reasons related to laundry. Analyzing relative frequencies of keywords for each topic group revealed evolving consumer laundry behavior in response to societal changes. Over time, laundry behavior showed a dispersal of agents and locations, increased diversification of laundry targets, and a growing interest in various methods and reasons for doing laundry. This research sheds light on the broader context of laundry behavior, offering a more comprehensive understanding of consumer attitudes and perceptions than previous studies. It underscores the significance of laundry as a daily, socio-cultural aspect of our lives. Additionally, this study identifies changing customer values and suggests improvements and strategic branding for laundry services, providing practical implications.

A significant proportion of the African continent is conducive for animal agricultural production, due to its historical experience and available resources to accommodate and nurture various indigenous and exotic animal species and breeds. With food security being a global challenge, animal products can play an important role as nutrient dense food sources in human diets, particularly in Africa. However, this does not seem to reach its full potential in practice, due to numerous reasons that have not been adequately addressed. Animal welfare reservations can be highlighted as one of the major contributing factors to the curbed progress. The consequences have been scientifically proven to affect product quality and market access. However, in the African community, the concept of animal welfare has not been fully embraced. While there are international animal welfare standards in the developed world, there are inherent factors that hinder adoption of such initiatives in most developing regions, particularly among communal farmers. These include cultural norms and practices, social ranking, socio-economic status, available resources, information dissemination and monitoring tools. Therefore, there is need to harmonize what is internationally required and what is feasible to accommodate global variability. The protocols followed to ensure and evaluate farm animal welfare require regular investigation, innovation and a sustainable approach to enhance animal productivity, efficiency and product quality. Additionally, investing in animal wellbeing and health, as well as empowering communities with significant knowledge, has a potential to improve African livelihoods and contribute to food security. This review seeks to highlight the concept of animal welfare in relation to livestock and food production in African conditions.

Biographical film is a genre narrativizing the actual person and history, and reproducing the character and history in a biographical film is in a dimension different from a film focused on a fiction. Discussion between these methods of narrative composition and image reproduction in a biographical film is also, in line with artistic/aesthetic problems and ethical/philosophical theses of the film text. This study discusses the phase of the way of reproduction of the actual person, $Xi{\bar{a}}o$ $H{\acute{o}}ng$ in the biographical film, The Golden Era and the time she lived in a biographical film and how the audience's discussion of the film and socio-cultural discourse differ depending on their attitude towards the cinematic introspection of the text. The narrative structure, the method of image reproduction and cinematic devices of the film, The Golden Era are completely off the point of the general format of the traditional biographical film. In The Golden Era, $Xi{\bar{a}}o$ $H{\acute{o}}ng$ and the history which she lived in did not revive depending on an omniscient subject's selective statement and meta-film structure. Ann Hui removed general, mythic images of $Xi{\bar{a}}o$ $H{\acute{o}}ng$ formed in the field of traditional Chinese culture and reproduced her through multilateral visions of a real, fictional narrator. Each spectator's judgment and interpretation of the film intervene in the multi-layered and sparse descriptions of the actual person's images and the era of the characters. Through this, it is possible to approach the uniqueness and authenticity a historical character, $Xi{\bar{a}}o$ $H{\acute{o}}ng$ and to have an opportunity of multi-layered reflection on how to secure a critical distance and make a perception in historical judgment.

Purpose - This article empirically investigated the effects of the socio-political factor of censorship preconditioning, and organizational support, mediating performance expectancy of public sector officials' behavioural intention to utilise social media in a post-communist country, Mongolia. Design/methodology/approach - This study collected 212 survey data from public sector organisations in Mongolia. Using the Partial Least Squire (PLS) method, this study analyzed the proposal model grounded on the UTAUT model. Findings - There are still communist footprints in the form of censorship, which remained as a negative precondition factor, and this has an indirect negative influence, and organisational support mediates to enhance performance expectancy. Effort expectancy and social influence factors have direct positive influence on the use of social media systems in the government domain of Mongolia Research implications or Originality - This study empirically investigated the model of public employees' intention to examine the post-communist countries' cultural, social, economic, and political systems, government organisational environment of the former communist sphere. The cultural factors, censorship and organisational support, to the existing IT adoption UTAUT model were also identified to test the situation of a post-communist country, Mongolia. This study contributes to the new theoretical involvement with social media by testing a new social media-based third-party intercommunication channel, including intent to use in the public service for post-communist countries. This study practically provides the guidelines to promote social media usage for public sector in the post-communist situation.

본 연구는 유엔 사무총장이 "코로나 19는 여성의 얼굴을 한 위기이다" 라고 언급한 것에서 볼 수 있듯이, 코로나 19 팬데믹으로 인하여 가장 큰 위기와 고통, 어려움에 처한 여성들의 상황을 통계자료들와 학술연구결과들을 통하여 경제적, 사회 문화적, 심리 정서적 측면에서 구체적으로 다루고, 이 문제들이 어떻게 "돌봄"에 관련되어 나타나는지 살펴보았다. 그리고 이러한 문제들과 위기에 대한 교회의 한 대응으로서 "돌봄윤리"와 "돌봄목회"를 통한 목회신학적 성찰을 도모하였다. 교회의 "돌봄목회"는 교회내의 개인적 돌봄 뿐 아니라 사회, 문화, 경제, 정치, 생태계적 이슈들에도 확장되며, 교회는 공공성을 가지고 재난과 관련된 이러한 이슈들에 응답하는 선교적 사명을 지닌다. 나아가 교육목회를 통해, 돌봄과 불평등에 대한 가치관과 사고방식의 변화와 디아코니아, 교회공동체의 사랑의 돌봄이 격려되어야 할 것이다.

Despite its high level of symbolic and ecological values, BaigDooDaeGahn, about 684km long stretch of mountains in the eastern part of Korean peninsular, has been widely destroyed and barely recovered. While Korean government enacted a special law in 2005 to protect these areas and designated about 2,658 $km^2$ as the protection zone in 2007, there were a number of sites inside that had been disturbed by mining, illegal crop cultivations, stone quarry, development of resort facilities, construction of roads, and other human activities. To restore these damaged areas in a sustainable manner, the integrative system to categorize damaged areas for participatory restoration by local residents was suggested by this study. The most distinguished feature of the proposed system was to integrate the existing restoration approach focusing on biophysical conditions into the sustainability-building approach to reactivate socio-economic conditions of local society, called 'restoration of eco-cultural community'. As an entry stage to design the new restoration system including processes and procedures, the damaged areas had to be re-categorized by two characteristics, their physical conditions in terms of possibility of public participatory restoration and the readiness of local society required for pursuing endogenous development. More detailed considerations regarding these two characteristics and three different categories has been suggested and discussed.

신한류의 장기화와 유의미한 도약을 위해서 해외에서 음악성과 대중성을 인정받은 국악퓨전밴드인 잠비나이, 씽씽 밴드, 악단광칠을 중심으로 세계화 과정에 밴드의 특징을 분석해 신한류로서의 가능성을 찾아보았다. 첫째, 같은 아시아권에서는 한국의 전통음악이 동질감으로 받아져 새로움을 부여하지 않지만 서구지역에서는 동양적인 이질감이 오히려 더 강한 경쟁력이 된 것으로 보인다. 신한류가 다양한 지역으로 확대됨에 지역 특화의 레퍼토리를 구성하여 시도해 보아야 할 것이다. 둘째, 세 밴드의 특징은 한국 전통음악의 고유성을 한 축으로 하면서 다양한 장르와 융합을 시도한 점이다. 신한류는 동아시아 스탠다드가 글로벌 스탠다드로 변환되는 과정에서 문화의 고유성을 지킴과 동시에 다양성과 차이를 수용하는 방식으로 나아가야 할 것이다. 셋째, 국악인이 주체가 되어 전통음악의 세계를 구축하고 대중화와 세계화를 가능케 하는 특징을 통해 신한류와의 융합에 타당성을 찾아보았다. 국악에 반영된 음색, 구성, 연출 기법 등의 효과나 음악적 요소에 대한 분석적인 연구를 통해 한국의 전통 문화적 가치를 부각시킬 필요성이 있다. 국악이 제공하는 고유성과 한국적 가치는, 아시아에서는 동질감으로, 유럽과 미국에서는 이질감으로 작용하여 신한류 콘텐츠의 가능성을 제시하고 한류의 장기화에 이바지할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the social exclusion of 'Da-Ka-Gu' rental housing and permanent rental apartments and to provide basic source of their socio-demographic characteristics and actual conditions of social exclusion. Self-administered questionnaires and interviews were carried out with 212 dwellers in 'Da-Ka-Gu' rental housing and permanent rental apartments in the city of Gwangju from July to October of 2010. The main findings are: 1. The social exclusion of physical deficiency dimension composed of income and employment has been found to be the most serious level, compared to all the other dimensions. 2. The social exclusion from health has been found to be the highest level in the dimension of the approach to social rights. The next highest level has been found to be the social exclusions from residential areas and education and service areas. 3. The level of social exclusions from the areas of family relations and social relations, which are in the dimension of social participation, has been found to be next highest to the level of physical deficiency dimension. 4. The level of exclusion from cultural and normative integration has not been found to be of significant difference between the two types of residence in this study. This study of the actual conditions of social exclusion among residents living in 'Da-Ka-Gu' rental housing and permanent rental apartments suggests the necessity and some practical implications for policy measures of social integration for the residents of lowincome housing.

The purpose of this study is to reinterpret sexuality represented in fashion since the latter half of the 19th century in a contextual view, on the basis of Foucauldian idea of post-structural sexuality. As for research methodology, literary research was undertaken from the conception of sexuality to a historical review of the culture and dress. Foucault maintains the view of plural sexuality, which floats by power relationship between dominant and oppositional discourses in a specific historical context. In contextual approach sexual ideology codified in fashion since the latter 19C shows the following aspects: First, the traditional sexual ideology in the latter 19C is a capitalist value, which gives a priority to bourgeois man's profits, and the Victorian discourses of sexuality constructs the dichotomized fashion of the period. Next, the former half of the $20^{th}$ C is regarded as the period of conformity rather than opposition with various alternatives appropriated to the mainstream, so the traditional sexual ideology in fashion of this period is still preserved. Finally, in post-capitalism period of the latter 20C a variety of anti-fashion visualized plural sexuality from the enormous oppositional discourses. Although it doesn't all mean deconstruction of sexuality in fashion by the anti-fashion re-appropriated without oppositional meanings, pluralization of sexuality implies dynamics of sexual discourses in the next historical period. As a result, fashion since the latter 19C has been changed as a means for expressing age and sexual desire out of gender and class. And mainstream fashion in even postmodern period keeps the modern value on the center of the hegemonic heterosexual masculinity though the increase of Androgynous Femininity in women's fashion may connote the meaning of femininity. The plural sexuality represented in fashion has a contextual flexibility, thus sexuality floats with a specific socio-cultural context and fashion represents a masquerade as an identity vehicle.

애니메이션은 전체적인 서사구조 속에서 캐릭터의 미적특징과 행동이 융합되어 표현되며, 이와 같은 캐릭터의 창조는 그것을 탄생하게 한 사회문화적 배경과 극적 구조 속에서 심리학적 접근이 필요하다. 본 연구는 애니메이션 캐릭터 창조에 있어 보다 현실성에 바탕을 둔 캐릭터를 형상화합과 동시에 개성적이고 독창적인 캐릭터와 네러티브 개발의 필요에 의해 시작되었다. 본 논문에서는 미국 정신의학회의 DSM-IV 정신장애와 진단 및 통계편람 을 통해 애니메이션 캐릭터의 성격장애를 분석해 본 결과 캐릭터의 성격유형은 일반적인 경향보다는 과장되게 표현됨으로써 극적인 동기유발과 극에 있어서 개연성을 위한 도구로 쓰였다. 또한 애니메이션 캐릭터에 성격장애와 같은 증세를 성격에 부여받음으로 네러티브 전개에 있어 변화를 가져 왔으며, 애니메이션 캐릭터가 비록 성격장애는 아닐지라도, 성격장애와 같은 기질이 과장 혹은 증폭되어 나타나고 있음을 알 수 있다.
