Abstract

This study investigated the effects of brand awareness and perceived price fairness on the purchase intention of masstige brands and the moderating effect of country of advertising (Korea or China) for the Chinese tourists visiting Korea. Along with the luxury image and the reasonable price range of masstige brands, the effect of Korean models matching with the country of masstige brand and Chinese models for Chinese visitors was examined based on the construal level theory. To test the hypotheses, a 2 (brand awareness H/L)×2 (perceived price fairness)×2 (country of model) factorial design was employed. As a result, brand awareness and price fairness perception were found to have positive effects on the purchase intention of masstige brands, and the moderating effect of the country of advertising models was also significant. With Korean models, the effects of brand awareness and price fairness perception on the purchase intention of masstige brands were higher than with Chinese models. This study sheds light on the fact that for Chinese tourists, Korean advertising models are more effective even with the specific signal like price when they perceive psychological distance.

본 연구는 방한 중국관광객에 대해 브랜드 인지도와 지각된 가격공정성이 매스티지 구매의도에 미치는 영향을 확인하고, 한·중 양국의 유명 광고모델이 이 관계에 어떻게 영향을 미치는 지 연구하였다. 명품의 이미지와 합리적인 가격대라는 매스티지의 특성에 따라 매스티지 원산지와 일치하는 국적(한국)모델과 중국관광객의 자국(중국)모델의 영향을 해석수준이론을 통하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 가설검증을 위해 2(브랜드인지도 고·저)×2(가격공정성)×2(광고모델 국적) 집단 간 실험설계를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 브랜드 인지도와 지각된 가격공정성은 각각 매스티지 구매의도에 정의 영향을 미쳤으며, 광고모델 국적의 조절효과도 유의미하였다. 광고모델이 한국 국적일 경우 브랜드인지도와 지각된 가격 공정성의 구매의도에 대한 영향이 중국 국적의 광고모델의 경우보다 더 크게 나타났다. 본 논문은 매스티지 브랜드는 중국 관광객에게 심리적 거리감이 있더라도 브랜드이미지에 맞는 한류 모델의 영향이 중국 모델보다 더 크다는 것을 보여준 연구로서 시사점이 있다고 하겠다.
