However, there has been little previous research that discussed pedestrian's behavior in some cities of East Asia. It is necessary to clarify the differences of pedestrians' characteristics in dissimilar cultural contexts. Theory In this research, we discuss the problems through the following theories. 1. Lewin's equation: The Lewin's Equation, B=ƒ(P,E), is a psychological equation of behavior developed by Kurt Lewin. It states that behavior is a function of the person and his or her environment. As we know pedestrians' choices do not exist right or advantage at all time. One add one add one people…their behavior will cause a traffic jam, become a lively cocktail party or a wonderful symphony. We are difficult to change pedestrians' behavior but we can change their environment through our design. It likes we don't need cut the feet to fit the shoes, we just need choose appropriate shoes. It's the work we must finish in urban design task.EnglishopenAccessconferenceObject915-917
