Abstract
In the age of the 4th industrial revolution, various 4th industrial technologies are being used in the beauty industry. In terms of education, hands-on education based on quaternary industrial technology is necessary for students majoring in beauty, and it is expected to have a positive effect on improving major knowledge and practice. Therefore, in order to effectively utilize the 4th industry technology in the subject of beauty education, the cosmetology major should consider the impact of the 4th industry technology on the content and sharing of major knowledge, improvement of practical ability, and development of the region and the beauty industry. It is necessary that the learner's understanding of recognition should be preceded. Therefore, in this study, we conducted a survey of cosmetology major learners' perceptions of quaternary industry technology, improvement of beauty practices, and industry-related matters. As a result of the analysis, skin beauty (61.7%), makeup & nail beauty (20%), cosmetics (11.7%), and hair beauty (6.6%), a total of 60 beauty-related learners participated in the study. Expert knowledge and perception of practical ability differed by academic year, and the degree of interest in 4th industrial revolution technology showed a significant correlation between specialized knowledge and perception of practical ability (expertise, practical ability, industry-related perception). It was confirmed that the higher the degree of interest in the 4th industrial revolution technology, the more the beauty-related majors had positive expectations for professional knowledge, practical ability, and industry-related awareness. As a result, beauty education using 4th industrial revolution technology will be operated not for specific grades but for all grades, and the scope of subject development and education need to be expanded to include nail beauty, makeup, skin beauty, hair beauty and cosmetics.
