Abstract

There exist differences between individualism and relationism cultures. Same goes for human's psychological components(cognition, emotion, and motivation) between the two cultures, which determines human's attitude. In Korea, relationism has been developed due to the traditional Korean thought, Confucianism. Features of 'bujayuchin', which means that 'Intimacy should exist between father and son.' and which corresponds to basic units in human relationship, have had great influence on relationship between the counselor and the client and counseling effects. In Korean society, the counselor should let clients realize the significance of 'role', which fulfills their responsibilities, and help them adapt themselves to society, instead of identifying with them by focusing on each individual, which stresses autonomy. In Korea, it is expected that the counselor serve as not merely a curer but also as an elder who gives advices and encouragements. Since this method suits the Korean culture, clients expect the counselors to be this way. Therefore, in Reality Dynamic Counseling which is suggested as the Korean counseling model, the counselor needs to serve as Eombujamo which means that 'Father should be strict and mother should be affectionate.' Important techniques that the counselor needs were suggested in this thesis as follows: grasping the client's current problems, accurate understanding empathy, understanding the client's situation, taking an objective view based on common sense, applying of confrontation, active attitude toward relationship, and recovering the relationship between parents and children.
