초록

This study is aimed to identify the keywords and to discover the latent topics in the newspaper articles which were reported by the national four main daily newspapers when family rituals changed for COVID19, by analyzing 233 newspaper articles in total. Reported from January 20th, 2020, when the first case of COVID19 was confirmed, to February 1th, 2022, when the spread of Omicron was intense, 233 out of 4,231 articles were selected from the from the Choseon, the Joongang, the Maeil Kyeongje, and Hankyeoreh and analyzed. These 4,231 articles included the keywords ‘COVID19,’ ‘Myeong-jul,’ ‘Je-sa,’ ‘Cha-rye,’ ‘Wedding ceremony,’ ‘Funeral ceremony,’ ‘Family event either to congratulate or to condole,’ ‘Family trip,’ and ‘The month of the family.’ Collected data were analyzed by the Text Mining method following pre-treatment. Based on TF-IDF weight, the top 30 words were examined and the names of the topics were denominated by drawing 5 topics in total through the Latent Dirichlet Allocation Topic modeling. The findings showed that COVID19 influenced all the areas of the forms of family rituals, and that the transformation into the ‘untact family ritual’ and the ‘smaller and simplified family rituals’ was remarkable. Furthermore, the health of the family appeared as a variable that influences family rituals, which implies the topic which suggests family rituals are related both directly and indirectly to diseases.
