Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices detect a magnetic field having a particular frequency induced by hydrogen nuclei included in a human body and convert the detected magnetic field into two- or three-dimensional images, thereby visualizing the internal structure of the human body without causing any harm to the human body. The higher the resolution of an MRI technique, the more accurate a diagnosis can be obtained. Thus, various methods are introduced to improve resolutions. For example, a wearable magnetic resonator and an application device including the wearable magnetic resonator are provided. The wearable magnetic resonator is flexible and used to improve MRI resolution by amplifying MR signals while being attached to a human body to amplify MR signals when MRI is performed. The wearable magnetic resonator includes the following: a dielectric thin film that is flexible; and a conductor thin film that is disposed to have a split ring resonator (SRR) structure on the dielectric thin film and is flexible, wherein the wearable magnetic resonator includes an inductance component and a capacitance component, and the wearable magnetic resonator amplifies a magnetic field by resonating at a predetermined frequency, thereby improving a MRI resolution.
