This paper aims to investigate how corpus-analysis of health-related words, well-being and healing, and their collocations may be used to help understand social situations of a particular society at a particular time. For the purpose of the study, a small corpus of Korean newspaper articles was compiled and analyzed to see how frequently well-being and healing appeared in the headlines of newspaper articles as well as what words they co-occur with. This study also examined how their frequency and collocations had changed annually. The results of the study show that well-being was most frequently shown in 2000s whereas healing appeared more frequently in 2010s. Moreover, the collocations of well-being were closely associated with concrete materials while those of healing were more related to abstract thing, even though both were health-related words. In this paper, it is claimed that sociolinguistic analysis of words used in newspaper articles can function as a barometer to estimate social situations of a particular society at a given time.
