Abstract

This study investigated the effect of K-POP characteristics on Korean consumers' liking, intention of listening and purchase intention of Korean products. For this purpose, K-POP characteristics were classified into musical characteristics and star characteristics. The results of the study are as follows. First, both musical characteristics and star characteristics of K-POP characteristics had a significant effect on favorability of Korean Wave content. Second, both musical characteristics and star characteristics of K-POP have a significant effect on K-POP listening intention. Third, both musical characteristics and star characteristics of K-POP characteristics had a significant effect on the purchase intention of Korean products through Korean Wave content. However, the relative influence of star characteristics is higher than K-POP characteristics. The results of this study will be useful data for promoting Korean pop among Chinese consumers.

본 연구는 중국소비자를 대상으로 K-POP 특성이 한류 콘텐츠 호감도와 청취의도 및 한국제품 구매의사에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 이를 위해 K-POP 특성을 음악적 특성과 스타(가수)특성으로 구분하여 연구를 진행하였다. 연구결과 첫째, K-POP 특성중 음악적 특성과 스타(가수) 특성 모두가 한류 콘텐츠 호감도에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, K-POP 특성중 음악적 특성과 스타(가수) 특성 모두가 K-POP 청취의도에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, K-POP 특성중 음악적 특성과 스타(가수) 특성 모두가 한류 콘텐츠를 통한 한국제품 구매의사에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 다만, K-POP 특성중 음악적 특성보다는 스타(가수)특성의 상대적 영향력이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 중국소비자를 대상으로 K-POP 소비증진방안을 마련하는데 유용한 자료가 될 것이다.
