AB - This study investigated the foreign immigrant workers's leisure from the leisure constraint perspective. Data were collected in two stages from foreign workers working in Seoul and Kyonggi province in 2009. Firstly, items constituting each cognitive domain were identified and developed using freelisting method. Secondly, a survey in closed format was conducted for consensus analysis . The results show that there was consensus with respect to the use of free time and leisure constraints while there was lack of consensus regarding the meaning attached to leisure. Overall work and/or the work-related matters were the most salient themes regarding the foreign workers' leisure. Work represented the most important use of free time while financial responsibility for family appeared to be the primary leisure constraint. In addition, leisure was most meaningful as an opportunity to work hard to meet an objective although there was lack of consensus. Some implications of the study were discussed.
