Abstract

This study has implications for expanding and applying the concept of reputation to a national level. Especially, the purpose of this study is to measure Korean country reputation, and we find out how foreigners perceive Korean country reputation using co-orientation model. According to the study, respondents were positively aware of the 'cultural entertainment' and 'openness of other cultural' factors and 'global citizenship' factors among the components of the county reputation for Korea. In addition, although the differences in national reputation among respondents' gender were not statistically significant, they showed statistical differences in some national reputation components by age group. Finally, the respondents looked at the statistical difference between Korean evaluation and Korean perception of the foreigners's view for Korean country reputation.

본 연구는 평판 개념을 국가 단위로 확대해 적용하는데 의의를 가진다. 이를 위해 탐색적으로 한국인을 대상으로 한국에 대한 평판을 측정하고자 하며, 상호지향성 모델 중 주관성 일치도를 적용해 외국인들이 한국의 국가평판을 어떻게 인식하는지 추정함으로써 향후 국가평판 제고를 위한 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 연구결과, 응답자들은 한국에 대한 국가평판 구성요인 중 '문화오락성'요인과 '타문화개방성'요인, '글로벌시민정신'요인에 대해서 긍정적으로 인식하고 있었다. 그리고 성별에 따른 국가평판 차이는 통계적으로 유의미하지 않았으나, 연령대별로 일부 국가평판 구성요인에서 통계적인 차이를 보였다. 특히 '문화오락성'요인의 경우, 20대 응답자들이 40대 이상 응답자들보다 상대적으로 높게 인식하고 있었다. 더불어 응답자들이 평가하는 한국에 대한 국가평판과 이들이 추정하는 외국인들의 한국에 대한 국가평판 간 인식 차이는 통계적으로 유의미한 결과가 나타났다.
