The influence of postmodernism changed the conventional sexism and androgynous outfit thrived. The androgynous effect also had strong influence on men's fashion in what turned out to be Metro-Sexual in early 2004. During the period 2000-2004 the postmodernism regained its popularity both in culture and fashion. 'Body' was also an important part of youth culture and has become the most popular and prevalent word of this era. At the same time the 'Well-Being' and sports look were the new trend of youth fashion. Sports look, also known as Caports, is one of these new trends and the most important youth fashion style like mix & match reformation.

We present the development of tools for Echelle spectrograph of NYSC 1-m telescope. The eShel spectrograph(Shelyak) has operated at Deokheung Optical Astronomy Observatory since 2016. We carried out test observation in 2016 and completed the preprocessing and wavelength calibration of the spectroscopic data using IRAF. Based on the reduction process in IRAF, PySpecW, a set of tools for spectroscopic data was developed in 2017. PySpecW was optimized for NYSC 1m telescope, and written in Python for youth to use easily on any OS. PySpecW consists of preprocessing, aperture tracing, aperture extraction, wavelength calibration, and dispersion correction for extracted spectra.
