Nowadays, as the era of aging is developing remarkably fast, conventional disease treatments such as surgery or emergency therapy are now being substituted to 'health promotion' and 'health prevention through whole-life management. Recently, many oriental medicine colleges are teaching subjects related to Yangsaeng and Gigong. However, detail investigation about the exact education situation and correlation between among subjects has not been performed yet. Thus, in this research, I collected data about each oriental medicine college's Yangsaeng/Gigong-related subjects' prevalence and management situation through the analysis of 'National Education Report about Korea's Oriental Medicine Colleges' and direct investigation, First, I analyzed oriental medicine colleges' education object. Among 11 basic medicine subjects, there were 2 subjects related to Yangsaeng and Gigong. And among 13 clinical medicine subjects, there were 7 subjects related to Yangsaeng and Gigong. In these subjects, the word 'Yangsaeng' was used for 14 times. The word 'Gigong' was used for 5 times and the words 'natural medicine' and 'alternative medicine' were used for 4 times. Total class hours related to Yangsaeng and Gigong were 19.6 hours (practice classes were 4.6 hours). Each class of subjects had 'study objects'. Study objects were categorized into A (Essential) and B (Recommendation) Items. There were44 A items and 23 B items. Among 11 oriental medicine colleges all over Korea, 10 classes related to Yangsaeng and Gigong existed in 9colleges. 7 classes were included in pre-OM course and 3 classes were included in major-OM course. 6 classes were taught only for one semester and 4 classes were taught for 2 semesters. 6 classes were single unit and 4 classes were 2-units sunjects. 3 classes were held 3 hours a week. 6 classes were held 2 hours a week and one class was held an hour per week. In conclusion, each oriental medicine college should focus on the education and research about Yangsaeng and Gigong.

Although the demand on 'Ki' training because of the increased interest in health, there has not been an established theory and system in 'Ki' training from the perspective of oriental medicine. Therefore, many training associations are in operation without sound basis. The general use of the terminology 'Kigong' is the influence of China. As it was distributed to the general public through the translation and introduction of Chinese Kigong theory, the genuine Korean YangsaengKigong was not emphasized but it was included in or considered as the second-class to the Chinese Kigong. The purpose of the study was to establish and review YangsaengKigong based on our traditional ideologies. Korean Yangsaengkigong can be defined as the training method nurturing mind, energy, body based on the Sambeob training method such as Pause of thinking, Modulation of breath and Prohibition of sensibility with the goal of Yangsaengkigong, good health and long life and the maximum service for the benefit of humanity. Although this study can identify the differecnes between Korean Yangseangkigong and Chinese kigong through Korean traditional ideology, we could not develop this study to the necessity of ideological background of medical Kigong and concrete methodology of Yangsaengkigong and our traditional ideology because of scarce literature on Korea and Korean traditional ideologies. For the purspose of the study, we need cooperation between Studies of Korea, Studies of National History, and Oriental Medicine.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the actor and partner effects of self efficacy, marital adjustment and family support on Yangseang in infertile couples using the actor-partner interdependence model. Methods: The participants were 108 infertile couples. Data were collected using the Yangsaeng Scale, Infertility Self Efficacy Scale, Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale, and Perceived Social Support Scale from March to April in 2016. The Actor-Partner Interdependence Model was used to analyze the actor and partner effects of self-efficacy, marital adjustment and family support on Yangsaeng. Results: The fit indices for the model were Comparative Fit Index (CFI) = 0.99, Normed Fit Index (NFI) = 0.99, Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI) = 0.90, and Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) = 0.01, which met the criteria. We found that only self efficacy had an actor effect on Yangsaeng. Marital adjustment and family support of infertile husbands had an actor effect on the Yangsaeng. In addition, marital adjustment showed an interaction effect. Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate that the level of Yangseang in infertile couples was positively associated with the levels of self efficacy and martial adjustment. Partner effects may be hidden due to much stronger actor effects on Yangseang.

The purpose of this article is to oversee the theory of Chimibyeong(治未病). The aim of Chimibyeong theory is to prevent disease from occuring, worsening, being delivered and so on. In many books, the word Chimibyeong was used as an alternative name for Yangsaeng(養生) or used as a term of preventing a disease or used as a word meaning treating disease in the early stage. But after the period of "Nangyeong(難經)", people extend the meaning of Chimibyeong to all stages of a disease covering the healthy stage, the early stage, the progressive, and the recovery stage of a disease. Especially in urgent cases when pathogenic factor[邪氣] attacks patient to critical situations, it is also regarded as one way of Chimibyeong to repel pathogenic factor out as soon as possible with proper medicines. These days people suffer from increasing mental stress, lack of rest and human relationships, environmental pollution and chronic diseases and so on, and the situation will grow worse. Many governments employ the health policy where preventing disease takes the highest priority because by doing that they can save a huge budget and minimize the economic and social disorder. In this circumstances the idea of pursuing prevention in the theory of Chimibyeong will help people to maintain healthy conditions.
