AB - We examined helpful and unhelpful messages that 35 Korean women with breast cancer commonly received. Messages providing optimism were the most frequently received type; the majority of the interviewees wanted to receive more of that type. Interviewees considered minimization of disease extent or impact helpful. Another finding unique to Korean culture is that family members express their share of responsibility for, and guilt feelings about, the interviewees being afflicted with breast cancer. Findings from this study will increase our knowledge of culture-specific comforting messages for Korean cancer patients.
