ABSTRACT

This research, which is about Whajeonga, intended to examine the meanings of play experience. Through Whajeonga, the research investigated female's consciousness of dreaming to escape from daily life, especially focusing on food and drinks they enjoy. In playing space it is essential to have a sense of emotional freedom, out of their daily standards. It is making and feasting on their food that gives the enjoyment of running contrary to the social standards. Food do not hold a practical meaning in Sadaeboo Gasa, in contrast to female playing space. Also alcoholic drinks in female playng space allows females to experience drinking culture in other ways, further allowing them to look back at themselves. Thus, enjoyment through playing comes from pleasance of self-sufficiency, which is formed in friendly bonds between them.
