This study is for the purpose of understanding deeply what the meaning of life means to the elderly women participating in the friend-making program of elderly people living alone. This study chose the phenomenological research methods for this in-depth study. The study participants were 16 elderly females who live alone in Busan Metropolitan City, Saha-Gu and they were also diagnosed with depression and had high potential of committing suicide. In-depth interviews were conducted with them for this study. As a result of the study, twelve sub-topics and four components were derived as an essential structure of experience. The final four components of the experience are “the difficulty to recognize the depression as a disease”, “a sense of loss of the elderly generation in contact with the depression”, “the social support and self adaptation to the society”, and “the need for specialized services of elderly people living alone”. The result of the study suggested that the melancholy elderly women can provide ideas and knowledge to the experts to improve the quality of their own lives by getting involved with the program. Moreover, from the results of this study, experts in various areas could make the best use of the information they get to develop the program.
