Every thing that is alive is destined to die. We know that the death is concerned with everybody but in spite of the fact, one has a tendency to look away from or make light of death.
One plans a life in a large way but doesn't make any plan for death and furthermore avoids purposely death. what is the reason? The reason is that one doesn't know when the death will be near at hand and that a man can't decide the time of death.
The death is terrible and man doesn't like death, so there is a tide to decline comment on death. To be afraid of death and to deny death is an attitude to deny life and an attitude making the life insignificant. If one can accept the death and pursue the meaning of death, one can cultivate a valuable life. If one frees oneself from a fear which death give, then one can perceive importance and virtue of the life.
The ignorance about death has influenced on every age group, from adults to young people. Young peoples think little of life, and when they face a risk, they choose occasionally the radical therapy, "death".
So, in this study, to help the young people who abandons the freedom which the true life give and is troubled with the worry, we examine the various opinion about death and propose the programme on death. The goal of this study is to teach and guide young people to make them have the sound mind and sound thought on death.
The purpose of Death-education is not just to prepare death which will come over one in the future, but to realize the happiness which one pursue, by thinking and perceiving death and finding one's life worth living. In this view, death is the thing that one should accept, and furthermore the thing that one should meet with and cultivate.
Accordingly, death can't destroy life but rather perfects life meaningfully by one's overcoming it. In this assumption, some distinctive feature of death-education which is exhibited in this study is appeared, as follow.
First, to develop death-education programme, philosophical and psychological approach is used in this study.
Second, death-education means the active attitude toward death, and it make one to find death the matter of realistic fact and help him to face with the death.
Third, death-education leads one to realize that after death, there is the eternal world. And it let one hope everlasting life of God's world.
In this context, death-education plays an important and unique role. Finally, through the death-education, the ministry in church, or the leader of young people has to help young people to be restored on the basic of "love of God."
