Flexible displays have attracted much attention as a future display due to highly rugged, lightweight, and extremely low power consumption. We have developed the flexible process technology for a mass production using the improved etching technology. F-DIET(Flexible Display using Improved Etching Technology) technology enables us to make a flexible display in standard AMLCD factories and to stably manufacture of flexible AMEPD and AMOLED.

This study explores the sense of place in contemporary commercial spaces in South Korean cities by analyzing Shin-chon, one of the major commercial districts located in Seoul. While studies of "place" have grown alongside critiques of modernism and have played a significant role in fostering better understandings of built environments in the last few decades, the discourses of sense of place within dynamically changing metropolis remain relatively unexamined. Despite many criticisms of the distracting and placeless aspects of contemporary Korean cities, these aspects also reveal localized commercialisms, privatized public spaces, and material representations in everyday life. Advertisements are here perceived as the mode of communication and medium through which one can construct sense of place according to what one experiences. Signboards are the vehicles that reflect this psychological process. Through the application of Walter Benjamin's two concepts -flâneur and mimesis -this paper will discuss how the theory of signboards in everyday life is formulated, and how Shin-chon can be interpreted as a place where people find sense of place without being alienated from the built environment.
