“…While the causes of this phenomenon have been extensively analyzed, the cause that has been repeatedly raised is the organization of exercise programs focusing on sports favored by older women [39,40,41]. Community exercise programs for older adults mainly include aerobics, yoga, and silver dancing, which limit the participation of older men [39,40,41]. However, solving this problem is di cult because of complex institutional and cultural limitations.…”

Background Korea is expected to become a super-aged society by 2025. Research has shown that regular participation in physical activity has a positive impact on older adults’ health and reduces national health costs. Aims Drawing on Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model, this study examines ecological systems that influence physical activity in older men and women. Method The data analysis included information on 537 older adults aged 65 years and older residing in South Korea. The regression analysis identified differences in the ecological systems that influence physical activity in older adults by sex. Results By examining the ecological systems that affect physical activity in older men, we found that the macrosystem affected the exosystem (p < .001) and microsystem (p < .001), the exosystem affected the mesosystem (p < .01), and the microsystem affected individuals (p < .001). In the case of older women, the macrosystem affected the exosystem (p < .001), microsystem (p < .001), and individuals (p < .01); the exosystem affected the microsystem (p < .01), and the microsystem affected individuals (p < .001). Discussion and Conclusion The results show that interpersonal interactions among friends, family members, and colleagues (microsystem) commonly affect physical activity in older men and women, whereas cultural characteristics that influence belief systems, knowledge, resources, and lifestyle factors (macrosystem) only affect physical activity in older women. These results suggest that older men do not receive sufficient support from the macrosystem in terms of their participation in physical activity. To encourage older men to participate in more physical activities, it is necessary to establish policies that help them form positive values and beliefs about physical activity.

“…Our exploration of written language in Korea was introduced by a read-aloud of The King's Secret (Farley, 2001) on the legend of the origin of Hanguel. We would now replace that book with King Sejong Invents an Alphabet (Kim, 2021), which shares the actual history. HeeYoung and Dorea also read-aloud Cooper's Lesson (Shin, 2015), a bilingual book, so children could hear both English and Korean in a story of a Korean American boy who does not speak Korean and realizes the significance of language to his identity.…”

Books can provide compelling invitations for children to explore global cultures, but how those books are used influences whether readers connect information about a particular global community to that culture's deeper values. Our concerns about reducing the cultural richness of a global community and establishing stereotypes led us to explore engagements for children that encourage a cosmopolitan orientation. Through this orientation, children balance critical reflection on their own cultural loyalties with critical reflection on their openness to an unfamiliar global culture. This article focuses on our learning as teachers in an afterschool club and our recognition that books can close rather than open children's minds and build walls rather than bridges across cultures.
