본 연구는 브랜드개성에 따른 한식 시장세분화를 통해 세분집단 간 한식소비행동과 만족도 및 충성도를 살펴보고자 하였다. 국내 거주 일본인과 한국방문 일본관광객들을 연구대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 통계분석은 한글 SPSSWIN 19.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도분석, 요인분석, 군집분석, 분산분석, $x^2$ 등을 실시하였다. 실증분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 한식 브랜드개성은 진실성, 강인성, 능력성, 세련성, 흥미성 등 다섯개 차원으로 도출되었다. 이를 기초로 유형화한 결과 흥미추구집단(18.7%), 세련성추구집단(59.7%), 능력 진실성추구집단(21.6%) 등 세 개의 집단으로 분류되었다. 둘째, 세분집단 간 인구 통계적 특성과 한식 소비행동에 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 세분 집단 간 한식만족도와 충성도에도 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 타 집단보다도 능력 진실성추구집단이 만족도와 충성도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 각 세분집단에 적합한 한식마케팅전략이 실행되어야 할 것이다.

First, the brand personality of Korean food was deduced into the following five levels: sincerity, ruggedness, competence, sophistication, and excitement. As a result of stereotyping based on the above, it was classified into three groups involving an excitement pursuing group (18.7%), a sophistication pursuing group (59.7%), and a competence sincerity pursuing group (21.6%). Second, it was found that there was a significant difference in the demographic characteristics and Korean food consumption behavior between segmented groups. Third, there was a significant difference also in satisfaction with and loyalty to Korean food between segmented groups.
