요약	Longitudinal autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher systematically documents, reflects on, and analyzes their own lived experience across an extended period — typically months to years. By combining the self-reflexive focus of autoethnography with a longitudinal temporal structure, this approach reveals how personal meanings, identities, and social understandings evolve over time. It bridges the personal and the cultural, producing richly layered narratives that connect individual transformation to broader social processes.	Autoethnography is a qualitative research method in which the researcher uses systematic self-reflection and personal narrative to examine their own experiences within a cultural, social, or organizational context. By treating the self as both subject and instrument, autoethnography connects individual lived experience to broader cultural patterns, making personal stories analytically and socially significant. It bridges autobiography and ethnography, producing accounts that are simultaneously evocative and scholarly.
