They are frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis, One-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, structural equation modeling: SEM, the bootstrapping method. Some of the findings are as follows. First, there was a significant difference in well-being tendency, health consciousness, life-satisfaction on the basis of participation experience. There was a significant difference in LOHAS tendency and health consciousness in terms of participation frequency. Second, LOHAS tendency had a positive effect on health consciousness. Third, LOHAS tendency had a positive effect on life-satisfaction. Forth, well-being tendency had a positive effect on health consciousness. Fifth, well-being tendency had a positive effect on life-satisfaction. Sixth, health consciousness had a positive effect on life-satisfaction. Seventh, there was a mediating effect of health consciousness between LOHAS tendency and life-satisfaction. Eighth, there was a mediating effect of health consciousness between well-being tendency and life-satisfaction. Conclusively, eco-friendly LOHAS tendency and well-being tendency were important factors to increase health consciousness and it resulted in life-satisfaction of plaza line dance participants. As to eco-friendly LOHAS tendency, well-being consciousness and life-satisfaction, health consciousness was an important mediating factor to increase life-satisfaction.
