Abstract
Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BMI (body mass in-dex), blood parameters and life pattern on KOQOL (Korean version of obesity-related qual-ity-of-life scale) in Health checkup examinees of college students.

Methods : A group of 2992 test subjects took their medical examination. With their height and weight, we diagnosed obesity according to BMI. KOQOL was measured by survey conducted using self-report questionnaires, after excluding sexual life related question. We analysed relationship between KOQOL and BMI, blood parameters, life pattern using SPSS version 21.0.

Results : 1. There were significant differences in KOQOL according to BMI, gender, creatinine. 2. Female showed higher KOQOL than male. 3. Normal weight group showed lowest KOQOL in male, but underweight group showed lowest KOQOL in female. 4. Group who had more than 6 breakfast, lunch and dinner each in a week showed significantly low-er KOQOL than that who didn``t.

Conclusions : Obesity has significant influence on quality of life, so therefore there is a need for correct weight perception in weight control program, and KOQOL can be used in evaluating patients mental and social health.
