In this paper, we discuss and propose improvements to the “Japanese‟ small scale hydropower technology and production techniques from the way of transfer technology from global knowledge links. We focus on pelton type wheel, which is suitable for high head and Japanese mountainous area. In this study, we learned technology of pelton from Nepal. The Nepal,s was freely available in the public domain, so we decided to design a system based on that. We decided to designby 3D‐CAD and to make buckets using 3D printer. We tested the power generation capacity of our waterwheel, effectiveness and efficiency. In our results of the experiment, it is possible to design a Pelton bucket that has apower generation efficiency comparable to a purchased bucket. In this presentation, we show the transfer technology process and the verification by experiment.

This essay focus on the continuation and change of village rituals of fishing villages in the eastern coast of Pohang-city area. It is well known that the transmission of folk rituals in fishing village is usually well succeeded among any other ecological areas. Findings at 16 fishing villages in the eastern coast of Pohang-city area support this old thesis. Although proceedings of rituals are simplified, every village holds traditional village rituals once or twice every year. Patron deities of each village are thought as both natural deities in charge of heaven, mountain or sea, and ancestors of certain families of the village regarded as pioneer of the village several hundred years ago. Proceedings of rituals and composition of ritual place have become standardization. So the proceedings of rituals have changed from folk style to confucian style and the composition of ritual place have changed from natural things like rocks, trees or springs etc. to shrines. These imply social structure and social history of the fishing villages and reflect enthusiasm of residents contrive to get the higher position of social hierarchy and share the high-level culture.

This is to study about the directions to promote the man's dignity and world peace through the ideology of 'Hongik in'gan'. This ideology not only respects, above all, humanism(人本主義), but emphasizes on the principle of mutual respect(相互尊重), equality(平等), peace(平和), and harmonious cooperation(和合) for human prosperity as the commonwealth ideology(大同主義). It is a very significant study for the modern people to find the wisdoms from a time-honored traditional ideology in oder to solve current problems. Therefore, this study, above all, examines the ideological goal of 'Hongik in'gan'; next, researches the origin of the man's dignity and world peace from the ideology of 'Hongik in'gan'; and last, proposes to activate the education of democratic citizenship, to participate the international systems, to support the world peace and security, up hold the democratization, and to build up the cooperative system for the Korean re-unification, as the directions to promote the man's dignity and world peace.

The South Korea - North Korea relations are under important turning points as there have been substantial progress since the end of the cold war which rested about a half century. The continued political and military conflicts between the South and the North after 2010, however, indicate that the relationship could turn back to the old regime characterized as stark conflicts between the two Korea. The current relationship is on the intersection between potential cooperation and existing conflicts, and under the transitional situation. The salient feature of the relationship between the two Korea is that they are structurally interdependent and mutually enforcing each other rather than exist as separate entities. Contrary to the relationship under the cold war, therefore, the relationship between the two Korea is progressing, yet maintains both the inertia from the past and the inherent possibilities for the future. The pertinent domain of future research is to suggest an ideal direction for the future relationship and to show how to mitigate the potential cost inherent in that direction for the reunification. Regardless of several potential variants of the path for the reunification, the persistence of coexistence and cooperation is of the utmost importance. The prerequisite for the reunification of the two Korea is that both Korea should be changed to aim for the ultimate peace community through mutual respect and coexistence without violence.

There are conclusions that collate articles between Silla's envoy and Japan's in “SOUKUNIHONKI(續日本紀)” follows First, Japan's official rank is higher than Silla's one, which can explain consideration of Japan to Silla. Second, Japan asked Silla ti send an envoy by sending their envoy when the new TENNOU (天皇) was made. Third, the diplomatic dispute between two countries from 720s occurred because Japan recognized or forced Silla as a tributary state unilaterally.

Today pupils are taught the importance of human rights at schools in Japan. Although there are lots of Burakumin(部落民)people who have been traditionally discriminated in Japan, it is usual that their history, of discrimination and the struggle for human rights, is not told in detail, while some teachers make their own teaching materials to make their pupils form the right images to the minority in the same race as the majority. Thinking this as a problem, the author focuses on YAMAKAMI Takuju1) (山上卓樹， 1855-1931), an activist in a social movement, businessman and owner of a private school in Hachiôji(八王子), in the western suburbs of Tôkyô. He was born in a well-off Burakumin family at a strictly separated village, because main vocations of the villagers, related to beasts’ meats and skins, were hated. After meeting the theory of Christianity, everybody being equal, he built a Catholic church under the guidance of French missionaries. Although the newly established national authority made a modern schooling system, primary schools in Hachiôji shut the discriminated children out. Yamakami established a school for them in the church, and became the headmaster. But afterwards, a big fire which made the church burnt down, and the Catholic missionaries’ changing its target of propagation to the upper and middle classes of Japan, weakened the villagers’ passion of education. Yamakami remained to be a statesman, but he failed in business and lost his influences at the beginning of the 20th century. It is regrettable that this history above is commonly not taught at classes in Hachiôji City now. So it is necessary for pupils, including discriminated children, to be taught local history and encouraged to live their lives.

The Study focused on the reception courtesy between Dongnaebu and Choryang Oeguan in Joseon Dynasty. There are some pictures which were described the reception courtesy of Dongnaebu governor toward Japan envoies. It is called 'Dongnae Busa JepOeDo' which expressed the many exchanges between korea and Japan in pre-modern. But it has not been investigated much carefully, in spite of very interesting topics and points. Especially the research of the reception courtesy of Choryang Oeguan is a few topic, because it is very hard for Korean to read the Oeguan Document hard.

“TAKASAGO（高砂）” is a very famous Noh singing. Many people think that the scene of it is TAKASAGO SHRINE(尾上神社), which is in Takasago city. But the scene of it is ONOE SHRINE(高砂神社), which is in Kakogawa city. Because in this Noh singing, the old man, the incarnation of the the god of SUMIYOSHI(住吉), says that he has appeared at the PINE OF ONOE(尾上の松).In Nagata Villedge(長田村) near ONOE SHRINE, many artisans including entertainers lived. They had come from Nara.

In the middle of the Edo period, the writings of the crossing the sea story of Tokubee spread widely throughout Japan. This Paper is about the manuscript group writings of the Story ‘TenjikuMonogatari’ published in Genroku 7(1694 A.D.) later. The paper makes clear that these writings are early manuscript group writings in the crossing the sea story of Tokubee.

There have been many historical studies on the Mongol Invasion since the Edo period. Among its wide variety of historical sources, the most important and typical one is “MokoShuraiEkotoba,” a set of two illustrated scrolls. However, has this valuable material been studied deeply and precisely? That does not seem to be the case. I would like to re‐examine the scrolls accurately in this report. (1) The man in the sea near Shikanoshima Island: This man has been said to be a Mongol soldier, but actually he was a retainer of TAKEZAKI Suenaga, or could be Suenaga himself. (2) The destination of Suenaga’s battleship, which had left Iki‐no‐matsubara (Nish Ward, Fukuoka City), was supposed to arrive at by six in the evening: It has been said that the ship headed for Takashima Island, but in reality for Shikanoshima Island. Takashima Island is 150 kilometers away, so it would take three days for the ship to arrive at. They could not have reached there by six in the eveningof the day.

Almost half a century has passed since Korea and Japan realized normalization in 1965. Ever since then, despite many efforts to improve mutual relationship, there also have been many problems between the two countries such as history problem, Yasukuni Shrine, and Dokdo, etc. It seems that the next 50 years will not be very smooth in the relationship between the two countries. In order to overcome conflicts between the two countries, it is necessary to establish 'trust process'. Korea-japan relationship should develop by searching for the trust process based on self identity of the two. To that end, the two sides need to expand cultural exchanges to exchanges in political area, and apply international universal standards to controversial issues. For the conflictual issues between the two parties, I would like to suggest the followings: (1) For the history disputes, it is necessary for two countries to try to cooperate in compiling 'Comparative Sources for Korean and Japanese History', which can contribute to the efforts to find out truth and mutual understanding; (2) The Comfort Women issue is solved by the following rule of ICJ: a claim for damage of the victims of anti-human crimes should not be given up by inter-national agreements; (3) Considering that the Yashkuni Shrine houses many war criminals in the Pacific War including 14 A-class war criminals, worshipping it is to justify the aggressive war of Japan, and to negate the criminal activities of war criminals. based on this, the solution should be searched for; (4) When the diplomatic relationship was established between Korea and Japan in 1965, the Dokdo issue was concealed by temporary agreement. If it continues to cause conflicts between the two peoples, it damages both peoples. The two peoples need to establish trust process over the issue. Now, the peoples have become mature. If the issue is not solved, there will be no future in the relationship between the two countries. To raise mutual trust between Korea and Japan up to the level among countries of the EU, it is necessary to do cultural understanding and systemize the trust process, based on truth findings.

Following the development of IT, Internet was punctured in every field of life. Internet banking was accepted by more and more people and became a new competing method between banks. How to serve the customers well and improve the service quality plays an important role in competing. This paper is to find out and analyze the factors of customer satisfaction as the critical success factors of internet banking. The research model with the factors influencing customer satisfaction is suggested. The results of this research are summarized as follows: First, perceived easy of use, perceived usefulness, perceived safety, and perceived responsibility have significantly positive influence on customer satisfaction. Second, customer satisfaction has significantly positive influence on intention of reuse. These research findings provide suggestions for making internet banking successful.

Most cities including Busan Metropolitan Government, have established international exchange organizations for promoting international activities as a government policy for supporting foreign residents and international exchanges. However, municipal government only has limited budget for carrying out these core objectives. Local international organization should have clear identity and unique characteristics at its foundational level. Without specialization, effectiveness of these programs cannot be achieved to the desired expectation. It is crucial for local based international organizations to expand their programs and to ensure stability in all aspects. However, In a long-term view, it is more important that local international exchange organization take a intermediary role as a platform for schools and organizations between Busan and other overseas cities. Furthermore, the local international exchange organizations should put more effort on building networks among related organizations such as international offices in universities, Education Offices, foreigner assistance facilities, foreign community, interest groups and other such International Organizations. Local international exchange organizations should work on converting from intangible information as established network to a tangible data by the digital-systematization. And then, it should take a role of share and publicize the international network information.

In the west, the historical approach of Childhood sexuality have been often practiced by famous historians, for example, PhilippeAriès, Norbert Elias and Michel Foucault.This presentation give a Historical overview of discourse about childhood sexuality in Japan.

The superficies is devided into 2 superficies, which are the statutory superficies and the common-law superficies, in Korea Civil Act. The statutory superficies is regulated in § 279 of Korea Civil Act. But the content of the common-law superficies is not found in Korea Civil Act, because this superficies bases on the common-law. Therefore the content of the common-law superficies has to be confined through the case law. The common-law superficies exists, when at first the land and the building on this land belong to a person, and then base on the sale or the others legal sources the owner of the land and the building is seperated, if there is no option which contains the demolish of the building. In other words, in this case the owner of the building has continuously a right(the superficies) of using the land in case law. Thus, the first a person who has the ownership of the land and the building, secondly the ownership of the land and the building is seperated, third non-option of the demolish of the building between parties. In this case the common-law superficies don’t need the registration in real estate registration paper. Hence, the common-law superficies is called as “the case-law superficies”. But in the common-law superficies exists a little problem. Are there the confidence power of this custom and the custom about the superficies, before the Supreme Court confirms the common-law superficies? Unfortunately, this can’t be confirmed in case law. Until now, Korea cases on the common-law superficies in Supreme Court are many. Finally, the common-law superficies need to be regulated in the related act.

The goal of this study is to investigate about correlation between dialects and local culture through established corpus of Korean, and Korean subdialect. I would like to clarify about the traits of Korean dialect and to clarify about the traits of culture of regional dialects such as feature of Korean by contrast of other languages. I investigated in this study is as follows : First, I discussed about correlation between Korean and Korean culture by means of contrasting Korean corpus and the other language corpus. Second, I discussed about correlation between Korean dialect and culture of Korean dialects by means of comparing the dialect of Korean. Third, I proposed the new word of Geongbook dialect at this paper and explained the traits of regional culture appeared regional dialect.

The Korean Beauty discourses in Korean art history and art critique started during the Japanese colonial period in the early 20th century. The most famous scholar of the Korean Beauty discourses is Yanagi Muneyosi, an art historian and harsh critic of Japanese imperialism. He defined the main characteristics of Korean Beauty as “Beauty of White”, “Beauty of Line” and “Beauty of sorrow”. However, his theory of Korean Beauty was based on a fragmental and personal opinion of his own taste. Here I reconsider the old Korean Beauty discourses in the 20th century in the context of Korean art history and modern Korean art. I want to redefine the main characteristics of Korean Beauty as “Beauty of free spirit and audacity with traditional five colors” in consideration of many old Korean art objects related not only with diverse crafts and Buddhist arts but also with famous contemporary Korean Artists.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of story sharing activity using six thinking hats on young children's creativity and verbal expression abilities.

The experimental group participated in story sharing activity using six thinking hats while the comparison group participated in the regular activity. Data were analyzed by ANCOVA. Results showed that there were significant differences between the experimental group and the comparison group in post-test scores. The results suggested that story sharing activity using six thinking hats would be more effective to develop young children's creativity and verbal expression abilities.

A kindergarten is a place to educate infants from full 3 years old to the age of entering elementary school. The kindergarten for an object of this study includes one national kindergarten, 335 public ones and 429 private ones, and their names of 765 ones in total in Osaka are taken into consideration. The most popular name of the ones of kindergartens in Japan is related to a geographical thing, that is, the geographical name. This includes not only the name of a city, of a district, and of a town but also the name of an ancient place or of a complex. The name of a person including a personal pronoun is shown at 34 kindergartens, and is actively used by private kindergartens. The number of botanical name is 101, and private kindergartens are using it more than two times than public ones are. The names of flowers and trees take up half and half. Chinese character is overwhelmingly used in their transcription; Hiragana is used more than Katakana; Roman character is used in only one place. Besides, we can see kindergartens take their names from educational and historical things as well other than geographical ones by judging from the fact that they brought their names from a chronological era and took the names originated from “the Bible”, “the Analects”, “the Great Learning”, and Greek and Roman mythology. The main reference book was “A School Catalog in Osaka in 2013” and http://www.youchien.com that is the site of Private Kindergarten Association in Japan was searched.
