  • The purpose of this study is to analyze how Corona daily life has changed the music listeners' music listening experience and what meaning the music listeners are discovering in their music listening experience. This study considered the sociology of music, and music as a medium of perception and consciousness from a theoretical perspective. After that, the purpose of this study was to extract the meaning of subjective interpretations of music listening tendencies and music listening experiences for college students who took music-related classes from 20 to 24 years old. The research methods were written interview and free discussion analysis. As a result of the study, 76% of those interviewed in writing answered that their tendency to select music in daily life had changed. The main reasons were: First, finding a utopia in 'home' with music, second, finding and listening to new music with increasing time, third, getting out of 'corona blue' with music. College students were discovering new meanings in physical isolation through listening to music. They were discovering the meaning of 'self-healing' in listening to music, and they were changing the direction of their desired consciousness and emotions through music.

  • As the computer technology is developed, score-writers that can edit music have more improved functions. A user not only can insert notes, chords, and musical symbols conveniently, but also can listen to music displayed in the score. Existing commercial score-writers make scores look good and play notes through VSTi(Virtual Studio Technology instrument). However chord accompaniment function is so vulnerable that it is hard to know whether or not displayed chords are suitable for music. If a score-writer has a proper function that plays chord sound good to hear, it will be a good reference to band music sheet writers. In this paper, to improve chord playback function in existing score-writers, we propose an algorithm that selects suitable chord tones for chord playback and implemented a program. If we apply this algorithm, the chord play function of a score-writer will be strengthened and resultantly a music sheet writer who makes a band music can make scores more conveniently.

  • With the rapid spread of social media, video-sharing social media like YouTube has emerged as a consumption and distribution channel for entertainment goods such as music videos and movie trailers. In tourism research, there has been a lot of research of how the visual media such as movies and soap operas induced tourism. However, no studies have attempted to examine the role of social media as a music consumption channel and its impact on tourism. Expanding a body of media-induced tourism, we analysed the impact of video-sharing social media on music-induced tourism with a case of Korean pop music and inbound tourism to Korea. Developing a Web-crawler, we collected YouTube users' comments data on 166 Korean pop music video clips which were released from 2009 to 2012 with over 1 million view counts. Controlling many of the determinants of tourism and analysing country-by-country impact of YouTube comments with the panel data, we found that engagement of Korean pop music video clips on YouTube is a significant predictor for the flow of inbound tourists to Korea.

  • The development of digital technology and the Internet has brought about a great change in the content industry. In order to keep pace with these changes, the copyright law has undergone several revisions, and the concept of "digital sound transmission" was introduced in the 2006 revision. However, in the current law, digital audio transmission is problematic in that the criteria for distinguishing between broadcasting and transmission is abstract and unclear. This ambiguity makes it difficult to judge the legal status of new music webcasting service such as "Free Litsen". Although these services are positioned as digital audion transmission, they have created a new concept of pseudo transmission because of its similarity to the audio transmission in its convenience and utility. These problems stem from the imbalance of between the development of technology and the legal system, so the change of the legal system is inevitable. Thus, this study discusses US copyright law and related cases, and then suggests solutions for pseudo transmission problems. This study suggests legislative criteria for pseudo transmission problems and legislative measures that can reduce the actual damage to the music market.

  • Civil college is a public educational institute for theoretical and practical learning. This study examines the social context behind France's civil college and how it is being operated. Many studies have been conducted in Korea to examine Germany in terms of lifelong learning or adult learning, but there is almost no study on France. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze the history and operation of civil college, the "college outside college," in France and what Korea should learn from it. The civil college of France can be discussed in two contexts: first, it is AUPF, which stands for the French association of civil colleges, and it was mostly influenced by Northern Europe and Germany. Second, it is Caen Civil College, which was established by M. Onfray based his philosophical collaboration. The European civil college opened almost 1,000 courses in 2010-2011 for a variety of subjects, including Foreign Languages, Mother Tongue, the Dialects of Alsace, Philosophy, Cosmology, History, Art History, Psychology, Sociology, Astronomy, Botany, and Natural Science. Courses in Fine Arts include drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, music, and theater. For another form of civil college, Philosopher M. Onfray has been operating Caen Civil College since 2002 for general education and cultural education. It is not acknowledged by conventional philosophers, but it is contributing to the popularization of philosophy. In conclusion, the civil college in France has brought in-depth philosophical discussions out of the lecture rooms in an effort to popularize learning, making lifelong learning more accessible to the general public.
