AB - This study is focusing on analyzing the construction method of Emoticon that can present a part of Korean’s language culture in digital lifestyle and examining the expression aspect through the usage in the real mobile conversations. The 1,970 picture emoticons and flash emoticons in Kakao Talk were studied for analyzing the construction method of Emoticon. The 911 captured screens of the mobile conversation were also studied for examining the expression method of Emoticon. The compound word 'Emoticon' is formed from the words 'emotion' and 'icon'. It is composed of image texts and language texts. The image texts of Emoticon present the meanings of the messages through pictogram, character, gesture language, text balloon and typo-illustration. The language texts of Emoticon show daily language life through colloquial expression, onomatopoeia words, mimetic words and the usage of foreign language. Emoticon expresses the user's emotion and action, delivering the opinion and information that can describe specific objects. Furthermore the appearance of Emoticon characters enables to make the simple story that has coherence and specific description of situation through the user's empathy. This study has significance of looking into the Korean's language culture through the expression aspect of Emoticon, examining the construction method and expression method of Emoticon in the mobile conversations.
