AB - On these days, Korean university students are facing an identity crisis due to changes in the industrial structure such as the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the “AI era." In addition, the expansion of cyber space, which expands the domain of virtual reality (VR) and communication, makes the students difficult to distinguish from reality.
Identity is a critical factor in identifying and developing ‘oneself’ in human relations. At the same time, one’s identity is an important key to living a happy life with others but also a view of the world, and it creates attitudes and values that determine future life and happiness. Therefore, it is crucial to educate university students in order to establish their own concepts and explore their identity.
The students have attempted to write for specific self-concept establishment and self-identity exploration in order to overcome the identity crisis they were facing. They were asked to describe ‘relationship,characteristics, preferences, exploration, interventions, values and future’that are important elements of self-identity exploration and induced the use of ‘I’ to integrate those elements. Through ‘Repeating’ and ‘Deleting’ techniques,the self-concept was clarified, and self- identity was explored. In order to utilize the 'Recognizing' and 'Carving' technique, they were required to write ‘subjective emotions’ and ‘feelings.’ As a result, 71 percent of university students said they were “most likely," 29 percent said they were ‘likely’ helped in terms of establishing self-concept and exploring self-identity. Of course, these are not all or conclusion of identity formation. In the future, many studies and experiments will be needed to create the self-identity for the students, and all studies, including this study, will be a process, not a result. That is because our lives will be constantly changing, and at the same time, it will be constantly throwing research subjects at us.
