The purpose of this dissertation was to compare the beautician national licensing system in South Korea with Germany and the United Kingdom. In comparison with Germany and the United Kingdom, the history of the Korean beautician national licensing system has been started since October 2008, and there are several points to be improved. First, the description of the tasks and requirements as a beautician should be more specific indicated. Second, the term ‘massage’ should be allowed to use in the beautician licensing exam besides the new term ‘manual technic’, as it is an international current word and worldwide used in beauty related educational institutions, courses and teaching materials. Third, the practical examination subject regarding manual lymphatic skin care should be more promoted to be used in the workplace. In general, Korean tend to prefer beauty treatments with strong pressure, and as manual lymphatic drainage is performed with slow motion and soft effleurage it is rarely done at the work place. Enhancing the applicability of manual lymphatic skin care is necessary as it should not only selected as a practical examination but practiced in work, and this should be reinforced through more education in educational institutions and courses. Fourth, level classification may be necessary for the specialization of the beautician national licensing system.
