A project by Lee Yun Jeong

The quantity of exercise that Koreans do on a daily basis is towards the bottom of global rankings. Who gets less exercise amongst the two represented groups, students and workers?
And why are they not exercising?

Data

My Own Data

I'm interested in health in general, and I came across an article regarding "Korean inactivity." It allowed me to do research on "Korean exercise." Six Koreans in their twenties were included in my investigation. I assessed the momentum of three students and three workers, observing that "On a daily basis, they are always moving with their mobile phones." Their daily step data were gathered daily from mid-June to mid-October, and their exercise volume was calculated using their “daily steps". Additionally, exercise data is gathered via the "Health" app on their phones.

Data from ‘data.go.kr’

I began researching why they don't exercise by expanding from my first research to using data supplied by the Korean government. Supplemented data shows the In-depth research and satisfies my interest. My inquiry continued because I wanted to identify the underlying cause of their incapacity to "exercise," rather than just finishing with an examination of Korean students and employees' exercise.

Artefact

Due to the fact that data was gathered for Koreans, I included Korean characteristics into my Artefact. The traditional Korean outfit Hanbok's bottoms and shoes were described as hand-drawn, and the background was likewise an image depicting the form of a Korean mountain. I introduced a mechanism that allows readers to communicate with this Artefact through mouse clicks, so I hope you click your mouse on it!
