ABSTRACT

In this study, a comparison between Koreans and Japanese was conducted paying attention to the presence or absence of words in Communication behavior, and the results were compared with Ogoshi (2008) to see if the results of Ogoshi (2008) have continued to the present, about 20 years on. The results are summarized as follows. • Both Koreans and Japanese feel very uncomfortable with strangers using or eating their things without saying anything, but both Koreans and Japanese feel less uncomfortable with people in a close relationship such as close friends and family. When both Koreans and Japanese borrow ballpoint pens, there is a difference between family and friends, so it cannot be said that family and friends are completely the same. However, depending on the type of object such as a mobile phone, there is a tendency to feel unpleasant regardless of the degree of intimacy. • The gender gap in Japan appears when belongings are borrowed from family or friends, and women are more negative than men about unspoken behavior. In Korea, the gender gap did not appear to be significant when cell phones or ball　point pens are borrowed. In Korea, gender differences appear when food is eaten without speaking, and women rated this more negatively than men. • Japanese men are more negative than Korean men when their family members eat chocolates in the refrigerator or on the table. Japanese women are more negative than Korean women regarding the act of women eating chocolate on the refrigerator or table with any partner. • Both Koreans and Japanese have a negative tendency toward unspoken behavior. Compared to 20 years ago, in Korea, the tolerance for unspoken behaviors of family members and friends has decreased and negative evaluations have increased, whereas in Japan, negative evaluations of the unspoken behaviors of family members and friends have been alleviated, thereby reducing the gap between Korea and Japan toward close friends. In order to investigate the difference between Korea and Japan in terms of territory consciousness, it will be most important to design a questionnaire that reflects social change, to understand the survey method and subjects, and to design a new survey based on the results of previous studies.
