The purpose of this study was to explore the meaning and the essence of experiencing home care workers’ emotional labor and find out its meaning of learning. van Manen’s hermeneutic phenomenological method was used in this study as 9 research participants’ experiences had been analyzed with four existential experiences including lived body, lived space, lived time, and lived others.\nAs a result, the essential factors about experiencing the emotional labor are the following.\nFirst, the ’lived experience of time’ is summarized in the “Determination, Resolution, Conflict, Reconciliation, Re-determination” Second, the ’lived experience of space’ is summarized in the “Smell, Tussle, Compensation, Reward” Third, the ’lived experience of body’ is summarized in the “Tiredness of mind and body, Body learning, Physical recovery.” Fourth, the ‘lived experience of relationship’ is summarized in the “Obligation, Pity for sickness people from people in the same position, Affection.” And this study shows us the importance of the meaning in the learning of filial duty, spirituality, and the emotional intelligence. Filial duty, spirituality, and emotion are essential elements in caring. Filial duty is the origin of human beings and the starting point of all morals and conduct. Spirituality allows the care workers to open themselves toward others in self-centeredness, and to form personality through self-reflection. Therefore, the development and operation of the filial duty learning, the emotional intelligence learning, and the spiritual learning program can have a positive attitude toward the job of the care workers and the care of the elderly can be rewarding rather than emotional labor.
