Abstract
This research targets as focus of study the trends for KANSEI engineering in Korea and to compare the result with that of Japan, the country where developed the field of KANSEI engineering, and to confirm the situation of the field of KANSEI engineering.The result obtained through comparison of both countries, it made clear that the study of KANSEI in Korea was centered on the field of application and the mainstream in Japan was the field of sense measurement. Korea was participating in the engineering domains aggressively, but the study on the field of industrial design was extremely small.
Based on these results, this research puts emphasis on making more experts of various fields participate in the study of KANSEI in Korea and indicates the basic direction.
