This study investigated the preference, intake condition and awareness of Kimchi of 660 elementary students in the Seoul area surveyed during June, 2008. The preference test was performed by using 5-point hedonic scale (1=dislike very much, 5=like very much). The most preferred types of Kimchi were Baechukimchi (4.32), Bossamkimchi (4.08) and Kkakdugi (4,01). The most preferred foods prepared with Kimchi were Kimchi jjige (4.59), Kimchi bokkeumbap (4.47), fried Kimchi (4.35), Kimchi pancake (4,31), Kimchi mandu (4.20) and Kimchi kimbap (4.06). Kimchi pizza (2.88), Kimchi hamburger (2.85) and Kimchi spaghetti (2.81) were not preferred. Most students (62.7%) ate Kimchi at almost every meal. The main reason for eating Kimchi was its delicious taste (50.3%). Concerning intake of Kimchi provided at school lunch, 48.4% of students ate some, 45.9% ate all and 5.8% ate none. Various kinds of Kimchi should be developed for elementary school students to meet their taste.

We present the characteristics of the Seoul National University 4k Camera (SNUCAM) and report its performance on the 1.5m telescope at the Maidanak observatory in Uzbekistan. SNUCAM is a CCD camera with a pixel scale of 0.266" in 4096 X 4096 format, covering 18.1' X 18.1' field of view on the 1.5m. The camera is currently equipped with Bessell UBVRI, Hα, SDSS ugriz, and Y-band filters, allowing us to carry out a variety of scientific programs ranging from exoplanet studies to survey of quasars at high redshift. We examine properties of SNUCAM such as the bias level and its temporal variation, the dark current, the readout noise, the gain, the linearity, the fringe patterns, the amplifier bias, and the bad pixels. From our observations, we also constructed the master fringe frames in I-, z-, and Y-band. We outline some of the current scientific programs being carried out with SNUCAM, and demonstrate that SNUCAM on the 1.5m can deliver excellent images that reach to the 5σ detection limits of R~25.5 mag and z~22.7 mag in 1 hour total integration.

본 연구는 서울시 개선사업으로 인해 변경된 공공시설물 중 버스정류장 쉘터에 관하여 연구하였다. 현재 버스정류장 쉘터의 색채는 서울시에서 지정한 대표색 중 기와진회색과 고궁갈색이 주조색으로 사용되고 있는데 도시환경과의 조화에 있어서는 자연스럽게 어울리지만 유니버설 디자인의 이론에 입각하여 볼 때 사회적, 신체적 약자에 속하는 아동집단과 노인집단이 이용하고 인지하는 데는 다소 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 아동집단과 노인집단의 특성 및 환경에 대해 분석하고, 서울시에 거주하는 아동집단과 노인집단을 대상으로 일반의식, 색상 선호도, 버스정류장 쉘터에 대하여 질문하였다. 본 연구는 공공시설물에 적절한 유니버설 디자인의 색채 영역에 적용시킬 수 있는 기반을 마련하고 공공공간의 영역을 하나의 시설물로만 보는 것이 아니라 시설물을 포함한 환경과의 조화 속에 시설물을 쉽게 인지하는 것에 의의가 있다. 그것이 앞으로 공공시설물이 나아가야 할 방향임을 인식하고 유니버설 디자인을 위한 색채 인지 방향에 관한 연구를 위해 참고자료로 활용되는 데 그 목적이 있다.

This study investigated the eating preferences and patterns for kimchi by elementary school students in Seoul, Korea. Seven hundred and sixty-six elementary school students in the Seoul area were surveyed during June, 2008, and the results are summarized as follows. The percentage of elementary school students living in a nuclear family was 93.6%. The BMIs of students were 'normal' (81.7%), 'underweight' (9.7%), and 'overweight' (8.6%). Most students (70.2%) liked kimchi. The main reasons cited were 'hot taste' (46.5%) by males and 'texture of chewing' (40.6%) by females. Most students had eaten Baechukimchi (97.8%) and Kkakdugi (96.9%), with Korean lettuce Kimchi (29.7%) marking the lowest experience. Regarding food prepared with Kimchi, most students had eaten Kimchi jjige (99.2%) and Kimchi bokkeumbap (96.9%).

In this investigation, 480 high school students attending school in Seoul, Incheon were surveyed for their knowledge of seaweed and their preference of seaweed products provided during school meal service. Female students answered that they preferred seaweed more than male students. When asked to explain their preference for seaweed, most students who preferred seaweed responded ‘it is tasty’ (82.9%), while those that did not like seaweed responded ‘I don’t like the texture when chewing it and it is not tasty’ (47.8%). Most students reported that they usually eat ‘laver’, and the number of times that they at seaweed was ‘3-4 times a week’. The primary place in which they ate seaweed and the place where they feel it had the best taste was a ‘house’. The primary source of information regarding seaweed was mass media including TV, newspapers, magazines and the internet (48.8%). With regard to seaweed in school meals, which is offered twice a week, most students reported, ‘I eat seaweed and leave it to some extent.’ They perceived ‘laver’ to be most often provided in school meals, and 57.7% reported that their favorite seaweed meal was ‘laver’. When asked why they dislike seaweed in school meals, the most common responses were ‘I didn’t like seaweed the first time I tried it’ (27%) and ‘Its taste is different from what I eat at home’ (24.6%). The most common request regarding seaweed provided in school lunches was for the taste to be improved (48.2%). Evaluation of the preference for seaweed menus in school meals revealed that both males and females had higher preferences of more than 4 points for ‘fried laver’ and ‘broiled laver’.

In this study, the symbols and visual expressions employed in the food culture content of official website designed to promote three cities in Korea, Seoul, Jeonju and Jeju, were subjected to semiotic analysis. In this study, it was assumed that these websites reflected the varying perspectives of the people behind the development and management of these routes of Internet communication, and the semiotic choices made in order to exemplify each city’s food cultural image. The aim of the study was to analyze the communication strategies of food cultural branding in the terms of the online content regarding Seoul, Jeonju, and Jeju with a focus on the comparative points in these cities’ official websites. This study included conducting semiotic content analyses of the aforementioned cities’ official web pages in an attempt to determine the food branding strategies used to differentiation and produce more favorable perceptions of these three cities. Building upon the findings drawn from this comparative study, the present work can be used to determine more effective ways of strategically differentiating the images of local food culture associated with these cities from the view of brand communications. This study also demonstrates viable directions for designing web content for a city where the food cultural messages can be delivered in a thoughtful and effective manner.
