    1.2 Basic Survey & Development Conceptions for the Expansion of the Special Baekje Cultural Area 백제문화권특정지역 확대를 위한 기초조사 및 개발구상 연구 Tae-Seong Seo 2000. 1·253 pages·Korean This study aims to develop regional areas by discovering and restoring historical and cultural resources that have not been exposed up to now as regional development depends on how much cultural infrastructures are secured. One of the regional development projects which are under way is the development project of the special Baekje cultural region which includes Gongju, Buyeo and Iksan. As the project is carried out in wide areas, it is necessary to extend the Baekje cultural region by making strategic plans. This study also aims at discovering other districts which can be included into the Baekje cultural area through the investigation of Baekje cultural resources and suggesting development plans for it. Thus, a literature survey and on-the-spot probe were conducted concerned with North Chungcheong, South Chungcheong and South Jeolla that belonged to Baekje Dynasty except the already designated areas including Gongju, Buyeo in South Chungcheong province and Iksan in North Jeolla province. As a result, it wsa revealed that Baekje cultural assets were distributed over the western & southern parts of the nation and that there were 65 designated cultural assets except cultural assets buried underground and cultural properties kept in museums. There are 4 cultural assets in North Chungcheong province, 15 in South Chungcheong province, 22 in North Jeolla province and 24 in South Jeolla province. However, important cultural assets that can be classified as national treasure or treasure are rare and mostly historical sites and souvenirs were there.

  • Essay for Olomouc Carousel Lecture
    The Background and Contemporary Spiritual-Nationalist Significance of Mt. Baekdu-san and the Baekdu-daegan Range, in All of Korea David A. Mason Sejong University We begin by viewing the extraordinary photograph of September 20, 2018, taken by official North Korean media and published in news reports around the world, showing Republic of Korea President Moon Jae-in and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea‘s “supreme leader” Kim Jong-un standing together clasping raised hands, their wives beside them. This reasonably dramatic and colorful photo was taken by most of the world to signify that some progress had been made in the political negotiations about economic assistance, military stances and nuclear weapons program during President Moon’s third summit meeting with Kim. However, the photo was widely reported to have a very deep emotional impact on ethnic Korean people, in Korea itself and among those of the global diaspora community who still remain knowledgeable about their cultural roots. The photo was displayed as super-enlarged posters in downtown Seoul and around South Korea, proclaiming a strong positive political influence by making it seem as if Moon’s policies towards the north were bearing fruit, and inspire and hope that a peaceful national reunification was moving closer. Much of the deep cultural resonance and political meaning encoded in this image remained unknown to most of the non- Korean global observers, as they do not know the background information that made it so significant. The purpose of this essay and the lecture that accompanied it is to fully explain all that complicated context of cultural and political history.

  • A Predictive Model for Estimating Damage from Wind Waves During Coastal Storms
    water Article A Predictive Model for Estimating Damage from Wind Waves during Coastal Storms Yeon Moon Choo , Kun Hak Chun, Hae Seong Jeon and Sang Bo Sim * Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Pusan National University, Busan 46241, Korea; [email protected] (Y.M.C.); [email protected] (K.H.C.); [email protected] (H.S.J.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-051-510-7654 Abstract: In recent years, climate abnormalities have been observed globally. Consequently, the scale and size of natural disasters, such as typhoons, wind wave, heavy snow, downpours, and storms, have increased. However, compared to other disasters, predicting the timing, location and severity of damages associated with typhoons and other extreme wind wave events is difficult. Accurately predicting the damage extent can reduce the damage scale by facilitating a speedy response. Therefore, in this study, a model to estimate the cost of damages associated with wind waves and their impacts during coastal storms was developed for the Republic of Korea. The history of wind wave and typhoon damages for coastal areas in Korea was collected from the disaster annual report (1991–2020), and the damage cost was converted such that it reflected the inflation rate as in 2020. Furthermore, data on ocean meteorological factors were collected for the events of wind wave and typhoon damages. Using logistic and linear regression, a wind wave damage prediction model reflecting the coastal regional characteristics based on 74 regions nationwide was developed. This prediction model enabled damage forecasting and can be utilized for improving the law and policy in disaster management.

  • High Incidence of Breast Cancer in Light-Polluted Areas with Spatial Effects in Korea
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2016.17.1.361 High Incidence of Breast Cancer in Light-Polluted Areas with Spatial Effects in Korea RESEARCH ARTICLE High Incidence of Breast Cancer in Light-Polluted Areas with Spatial Effects in Korea Yun Jeong Kim1,3, Man Sik Park2, Eunil Lee1,3,4*, Jae Wook Choi1,4,5 Abstract We have reported a high prevalence of breast cancer in light-polluted areas in Korea. However, it is necessary to analyze the spatial effects of light polluted areas on breast cancer because light pollution levels are correlated with region proximity to central urbanized areas in studied cities. In this study, we applied a spatial regression method (an intrinsic conditional autoregressive [iCAR] model) to analyze the relationship between the incidence of breast cancer and artificial light at night (ALAN) levels in 25 regions including central city, urbanized, and rural areas. By Poisson regression analysis, there was a significant correlation between ALAN, alcohol consumption rates, and the incidence of breast cancer. We also found significant spatial effects between ALAN and the incidence of breast cancer, with an increase in the deviance information criterion (DIC) from 374.3 to 348.6 and an increase in R² from 0.574 to 0.667. Therefore, spatial analysis (an iCAR model) is more appropriate for assessing ALAN effects on breast cancer. To our knowledge, this study is the first to show spatial effects of light pollution on breast cancer, despite the limitations of an ecological study. We suggest that a decrease in ALAN could reduce breast cancer more than expected because of spatial effects.

  • University of Calgary a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For
    UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY Towards an Understanding of Korean Protestantism: The Formation of Christian-Oriented Sects, Cults, and Anti-Cult Movements in Contemporary Korea by Chang Han Kim A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT OF RELIGIOUS STUDIES CALGARY, ALBERTA DECEMBER, 2007 © Chang Han Kim 2007 ISBN: 978-0-494-38219-6 Abstract By looking at the typology of church, sect, and cult, this research investigates the belief system of Korean Protestantism and its organizational variations. First, Korean Protestantism displays exclusive cultural and social attitudes compared with other Korean religious traditions. A heterodox infusion of religion in the Korean tradition began with the introduction of Roman Catholicism in the 19th century. It was Protestantism, however, which shook the traditional religious culture to its core by creating strong religious boundaries. Second, in spite of its relatively short history, Korean Protestantism took root in a non-Western culture to shape it in ways that are without parallel in Korean history. In the process, it developed a far more uniform conservative religious ethos than is found in the West. Third, Korean Protestantism gave birth to various dissident new religious bodies in the form of Christian-oriented sects and cults. Although most of these new religious groups originated within this conservative religious milieu, they vary considerably. These range from new and innovative movements in high tension with the surrounding society to others with relatively little difference in terms of traditional Christianity. Lastly, the Christian anti-cult movement, as one notable response to these new religions, seeks to amplify the exclusive tendencies of Korean Protestantism.
