Background: Due to COVID-19, children from low-income families are relatively difficult to receive social support compared to children from general families, resulting in a decline in self-esteem. Purpose: To find out the current situation of children from low-income families in Korea, and to determine what social support affects children's self-esteem in the COVID-19 situation. Methodology/Approach: In order to find out the self-esteem of Incheon children, content analysis was conducted using a random sampling method of children from 20 local children's centers in Incheon. The total number of questionnaires collected by direct collection and mail with the cooperation of each institution is 242. Of these, 240 copies were analyzed and used, excluding two unfaithful copies. Findings/Conclusion: It was found that children were less supported by teachers as COVID-19 prevented them from attending school normally. This inevitably affects the self-esteem of children who do not receive positive support from family support. This will also be another task that our society should pay attention to and solve together for children from low-income families who are unable to maintain their right to learn through private institutes or tutoring and are likely to be isolated and neglected at home. Facilities close to children, such as local children's centers and youth facilities for low-income families, should be made safer, more comfortable, and more accessible. It is necessary to provide a more positive environment for children from low-income families and create a variety of adults and peer groups to create positive social support so that they can eliminate delinquency or negative emotions caused by deficiency can be eliminated. In addition, we do not know when and how our society will encounter another negative environment such as COVID-19, and children from low-income families will grow into adults with psychosocial problems (depression, suicide, interpersonal difficulties, antisocial tendencies), so we need to develop various programs, quality education, and various experiences. Implications: Children are most affected by family support, and teacher support, which does not have significant results, is a special situation indicated by COVID-19, suggesting that children from low-income families have no choice but to rely on family support.

Background: Korea government encourages and aids supports filial piety(HYO), that is traditional family ethics, through the law in a separate way that provides social care to elders by the law of social welfare for elder. Purpose: This study aims to compare ethics of social work practice with ethics of filial piety(HYO) practice by reviewing precedent research. Methodology/Approach: With this reasons, to divide filial piety(HYO) practice with traditional ethics of filial piety(HYO) practice and modern one is examined at first. And then, identified the relationships of them with ethics of social work practice respectively. Findings/Conclusions: Results show that the relationships between ethics of social work practice and traditional ethics of filial piety(HYO) practice are irrelevant but, the relationships between ethics of social work practice and modern ones are considerably related. Implications: Implications for this study is to suggest the specifically applicable proposals for traditional ethics of filial piety(HYO) practice and modern ones to ethics of social work practice in modern welfare state that is providing socialization for elderly care.

Background : Recently, due to various dysfunctional problems occurring in our society, we have begun to focus again on the ‘filial piety’, the basis of family ethics. However, filial piety, which emphasizes only one-sided bottom-up virtues, is not welcomed by modern people. Therefore, it is time to expand the base of HYO, which reinterpreted filial piety by emphasizing harmony and relationship. Purpose : This study seeks to find a way to promote the HYO emotion that contemporarily reinterpreted of the paradigm of HYO. Raising emotional intelligence, which acts as a lubricant for social relationships based on HYO, a basic natural emotion, will be a way to maximize HYO practice. Therefore, in this study, HYO and emotional intelligence, which are human natural emotions, were fused into one within the common denominator of 'emotional' and named 'HYO emotional intelligence(HEI)'. Methodology : This study is the step of devising a program before preliminary execution. To this end, we first tried to secure the validity of the program design by examining the concept of HYO, the theory of emotional intelligence, and the theory of color psychology. Through this, this study would intend to construct the contents of the program by borrowing the components of Korean parent-adolescent affective bonding(Bu-Ja-Yu-Chin-Sung-Cheong) which the twin concept with the HYO emotion as a subject and applying the constituent concepts of emotional intelligence and color psychotherapy. In order to confirm the final program in the future, it is necessary to review it through preliminary execution after conducting a demand survey and expert advice. Results : The instrumental and therapeutic functions of color would generate and the emotions such as respect, sorriness, comfort, gratitude for own’s parents through re-experiencing mind of weness-sameness, folksiness and preciousness. This emotional experience will improve emotional intelligence and increase intimacy with parents. Through this, it is expected that natural reactions such as “I want to be filial” and “I want to be good to my parents” will come out. Implications : First, emotional intelligence can be improved only by promoting HYO emotions. Second, HYO education will be much easier and more effective if colors that have low resistance and can change emotions naturally are used. Third, in order to develop various HYO programs, it is necessary to develop a HYO scale that can be verified from both the parents' and children's perspectives.
