다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study focused on individuals' lives in terms of happiness and aimed to explore the role of cultural and arts education in enhancing personal happiness. To do so, the study utilized Seligman's theory of PERMA, which suggests five elements necessary for sustained happiness enhancement.
The research findings revealed the following: firstly, in terms of "Positive Emotion," arts education was found to foster positive emotions such as joy, excitement, warmth, confidence, trust, optimism, and hope. It was observed that individuals grew through encouragement from peers who learn together with a strong will. Secondly, in terms of "Engagement," arts education was interpreted as creating significant satisfaction or immersion to the extent that individuals lose track of time.
Thirdly, in terms of "Relationships," arts education played a role in increasing trust not only in oneself but also in learning companions through the process of socializing with others. Fourthly, in terms of "Meaning," it was confirmed that music and arts education, rather than providing momentary pleasure, led to emotional responses and a sense of values in life, fostering self-esteem.
Lastly, in terms of "Accomplishment," arts education was found to contribute to actively seeking and achieving personal happiness, acquiring a sense of accomplishment.
