The designed study involved six 3rd-year medical school students and implemented a specialized art appreciation class tailored for medical education. During this process, the study combined the SPICES model of educational strategies with “visual thinking strategies” and incorporated neuroscientific research on art responses to refine teaching methods. The class progressed through stages of “intense observation,” “open-ended questioning and discussion,” and “narrative storytelling.” Through in-depth interviews with participants, the study qualitatively evaluated teaching methods, content, and outcomes and confirmed the positive impact of the class on students' observation skills, communication skills, and interpretation skills. Based on these results, this research emphasizes on the potential collaboration between medical education and visual arts, presenting new possibilities for utilizing visual arts in clinical medicine.","PeriodicalId":214583,"journal":{"name":"The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence","volume":"127 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139197192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, the subjects of the study were people in their 20s to 50s who had experience receiving nail care, and their preferences for hands that had undergone nail extension treatment in four nail shapes (round, square, oval, and arrowhead) were analyzed. In preference for nail shape, round was dominant regardless of extension length, oval and square were similar, and arrowhead shapes were low. However, preferences according to extension length were different depending on gender, age, occupation, and marital status. Women, younger age, unmarried, and regular nail care groups showed less preference for round nails and more diverse preferred nail shapes. These results suggest that preferred nail shapes vary depending on extension length and demographic characteristics, and can be used as very useful information by nail art designers when counseling customers.","PeriodicalId":214583,"journal":{"name":"The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence","volume":" 46","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139197223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The appearance of time-image through static shorts and fragmented montage is considered. Deleuze directs ‘any-space-whatever’ with Antonioni's characteristic film image.

To achieve this, Giorgi's research method, which allows for the exploration of the meaning and essence of experiences from the perspective of Generation Z users, was adopted. In-depth interviews were conducted to collect data, and the research results are as follows: Firstly, active consumers of K-POP exhibit distinct behaviors compared to general users. They engage in social consumption behaviors, and there is a clear distinction between mediators and users in terms of interpersonal relationships. Second, to enhance user satisfaction, features beyond artist interactions and chat functionalities are required, regardless of the type of K-POP user. These features should focus on user-to-user sharing and empathy. Third, approaches incorporating live elements that can only be experienced within the metaverse platform need to be developed and implemented. Finally, the utilization of metaverse platforms by entertainment planning companies is predicted to satisfy user desires through content expansion. It is expected to serve as a medium for fandom among Generation Z, potentially leading to continuous user influx and serving as a tool for future revenue generation.","PeriodicalId":214583,"journal":{"name":"The Korean Society of Culture and Convergence","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139201901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
