  • The history of art during the first half of the last decade was founded the discussion with highly impressive and confident. The art might establish its unique area based on self recognition at that era. The self-confidence of modern art may be possible on enlightenment, which is the firm relationship for knowledge and reality. However the faith of modernism which shows rational tendency, objective, and the existence of universal knowledge has been drastically doubted and criticized thereafter. A internal ideological system which had leaded the modern art was exhausted. Postmodernism revolved to the dramatic openness leaning against the deoedipalizational confession. According to the dissipation of the vitality of modern art postmodern art has been evolved and then various phenomena which follow the trends has been emerged. The avant-garde and resisteive attribute of modern art was diluted fast due to the influx of popular culture. As time goes it can be attracted by spectacle taste than metaphysical peculiarity. It has to inevitably justified the drift of light and quick themes, contents, and images. Such as these phenomena realistically shows fact that postmodern art had been failed to open a new chapter of consilience which intermediates beauty and usual communication to overcome the solipsism of modernism. A trial to pursuit the opened esthetics conceived more 'heroic' 'Star-Subject' than before by dismantling the modern 'Hero-Subject'. Postmodernism has been recorded as a regression of art, which is the technology of profound spirit that mitigates antagonism and confrontation and mediates mutual encountering of human being. Prevailing of postmodern freedom had been accompanied by popularity, osetentation consumption, marketing, gambling level exitement, mixtures of desires with price fluctuations. We witness 'self-confinement' and 'lasting absence of exit' phenomena in postmodernism ideology and practice. We have to deal postmodernism as an 'ideology which closes the discussion for the future' in the context of 'absence of way' at this point. We are going to investigate how postmodern ideology and practice takes part in the prospection beyond thereafter through discussion. We also pay attention to the 'absence of prospection' as a internal problem in itself nevertheless mention the three merge points such as tradition or memory, earthy thought, the self who confrontation others as the clue of prospecting thought which is allowing coming over postmodern absence.

  • Korean Native Pig (KNP) has a uniform black coat color, excellent meat quality, white colored fat, solid fat structure and good marbling. However, its growth performance is low, while the western origin Yorkshire pig has high growth performance. To take advantage of the unique performance of the two pig breeds, we raised crossbreeds (KNP ${\times}$ Yorkshire to make use of the heterotic effect. We then analyzed the liver transcriptome as it plays an important role in fat metabolism. We sampled at two stages: 10 weeks and at 26 weeks. The stages were chosen to correspond to the change in feeding system. A total of 16 pigs (8 from each stage) were sampled and RNA sequencing was performed. The reads were mapped to the reference genome and differential expression analysis was performed with edgeR package. A total of 324 genes were found to be significantly differentially expressed (${\left|log2FC\right|}$ > 1 & q < 0.01), out of which 180 genes were up-regulated and 144 genes were down-regulated. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) showed that the samples clustered according to stages. Functional annotation of significant DEGs (differentially expressed genes) showed that GO terms such as DNA replication, cell division, protein phosphorylation, regulation of signal transduction by p53 class mediator, ribosome, focal adhesion, DNA helicase activity, protein kinase activity etc. were enriched. KEGG pathway analysis showed that the DEGs functioned in cell cycle, Ras signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway etc. Twenty-nine transcripts were also part of the DEGs, these were predominantly Cys2His2-like fold group (C2H2) family of zinc fingers. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis showed that there were three highly interconnected clusters, suggesting an enrichment of genes with similar biological function. This study presents the first report of liver tissue specific gene regulation in a cross-bred Korean pig.

  • This study was undertaken to understand how reference groups, convenience and pursuit of information affect subscription-based Webtoon service usage through reliability and curiosity, through which this study provides some suggestions for developing Webtoons and increasing profitability of service providers. Therefore, the reliability and feasibility analysis were conducted for 449 readers who used the paid webtoon more than once. In addition, the causality test was conducted to verify the research model. As a result of the research, this study shows the following implications: First, it is recommended that webtoon service providers produce webtoons with the webtoonists who have more expertise developing new webtoons. Second, webtoon service providers should focus on advertising during the episodes that are currently being subscribed to, or in the next episodes in order to stimulate the usage needs of readers rather than focusing on advertising the products related to the characters and their development and sales. Third, webtoon service providers are supposed to develop webtoons by using materials that can appear in everyday life. Fourth, webtoon service providers should continue their research in order to develop high quality products and express the unique characteristics of their advertisements by increasing investment in the development of products and advertising.

  • This study performs an exploratory investigation of the needs of the customers who use academic information service from a research institute, K, that provides information services for domestic academic institutions of natural science and technology. K institute is planning customized services in order to improve customer satisfaction on the academic information service And therefore, the institute begins the research on customer needs analysis and customer segmentation. The research is regarded as well-timed, because CRM implementation in public organizations has been activated recently. Data mining and data warehousing techniques were used for pilot analyses. For the purpose of customer segmentation, a mixed segmentation model, which adds product life cycle concept to the 'balanced customer segmentation' model, which in turn considers the value of customers from the organizational viewpoint and the value of organizations from the customer's viewpoint, simultaneously, was applied. The result of investigation indicated that, in the case of K, 'balanced customer segmentation' and 'contents reach approach' which uses data warehouse/OLAP, rather than those customer segmentation techniques that are often used within the industry, are the more potent ways of approach. This exploratory case study is expected to provide a useful guideline for 'deriving an organizationally unique CRM model' that recently is one of the hot topics in the CRM area.

  • Flipped classroom has used widely in university in that its unique structure can facilitate learners' higher-thinking skills and promote competencies. Learners are expected to extend knowledge through performing online and offline, but they have difficulty in understanding their roles and specific behaviors to achieve the learning goals in the flipped learning. Therefore, a guidance for students has been required to support learners' mastery learning. The purpose of this study is to identify successful learners' characteristics in terms of "competency". For this, three-phased competency modeling was employed. In Phase I, Behavioral Event Interviews were conducted with eight learners of the flipped classroom. In Phase II for identifying competencies and developing a competency model, the data was coded, followed by testing reliability of the coding. Based on the meaning codes, competencies and behavioral indexes were developed. The final competencies consist of learning orientation, learning management, feedback seeking, peer interaction, and knowledge extension. In Phase III, validation of the competency model was conducted by explanatory factor analysis. As last, competencies were aligned by the two-phase of the flipped classroom. The finding will be used as the guidance for the learners and instructors in the flipped classroom.

  • With progress of the sound and moving picture recording technology, sound and moving picture have been a tool for evidence and memory on human activities. Accordingly, in archival science the importance of oral history as a record is disseminating and the production of oral record is carried out actively. But for producing oral record in archival institutions, the identity of oral record need to be established more firmly. Archival science is the task which delivers the current appearance of life to future through records. Therefore producing oral record in archival science must have unique characters. And archival science is the task which is building current memory. Therefore the identity of oral more firmly. This article intends to explore the meaning and role of oral record from a perspective of archival science. All these days, the theories and methodologies had been developed focusing on written records mainly in the deep-rooted influence of positivism. But as it is enabled the creation and preservation of records through 'speech', it need to be noted that oral record is the very core of tool for delivering the current society shape and collective memory. Therefore this article will intend to explore the meaning and role of oral record as a part of effort to establish the identity of oral record.

  • There are many bamboo weir (Juk-Bang-Ryeum) with the highest preservation value as a fisheries heritage from Sacheon to Namhae area in the Korea Hanrye National Marine Park. It was designated as a Korea National Cultural Property Sightseeing No. 71, and also as an important fishery asset listed in the Korea National Important Fisheries Heritage No. 3. It is an important cultural heritage that should be preserved for the future as a community asset to the local residents, and should be preserved as it's original form because of unique traditional fishery style in the world as well as natural environment oriented fishing system. The purpose of this study is to review the value of Juk-Bang-Ryeum in the South Sea as well as to preserve the tradition of it. This paper will make a contribution to the registration of it on the list of World Important Agricultural and Fishery Heritage (GIAHS), which is recognized by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). To make basic data for listing on it, we will analyze the characteristics and structure of Juk-Bang-Ryeum, and also research the value of it from the historical literature review as well state of arts. We also develop a scheme for listing on FAO GIAHS through checking necessary items step by step. Finally, we suggest some idea to preserve it more effectively.

  • The interest in underwater acoustic sensor networks (UWASNs), along with the rapid development of underwater industries, has increased. To operate UWASNs efficiently, it is important to adopt well-designed medium access control (MAC) protocols that prevent collisions and allow the sharing of resources between nodes efficiently. On the other hand, underwater channels suffer from a narrow bandwidth, long propagation delay, and low data rate, so existing terrestrial node pairing schemes for non orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) cannot be applied directly to underwater environments. Therefore, a multi-dimensional node pairing scheme is proposed to consider the unique underwater channel in UWASNs. Conventional NOMA schemes have considered the channel quality only in node pairing. Unlike previous schemes, the proposed scheme considers the channel gain and many other features, such as node fairness, traffic load, and the age of data packets to find the best node-pair. In addition, the sender employs a list of candidates for node-pairs rather than path loss to reduce the computational complexity. The simulation results showed that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional scheme by considering the fairness factor with 23.8% increases in throughput, 28% decreases in latency, and 5.7% improvements in fairness at best.
