Abstract

Although many researches have been conducted that the contents consumption, called Hallyu, has a positive effect on the national image of Korea, which leads to product purchases, there have been few empirical studies based on the experience economy theory that connects to value relationships with customers. Therefore, based on the experiential economy theory, this research conducted an empirical analysis of the effect on Korean image and cosmetics purchase intention targeting women living in Malaysia and the Philippines who have experienced the Korean Wave(Hallyu). As a result of the research, entertainment experience, educational experience, and escape experience had a significant effect on the image of Korea, but aesthetic experience did not. Entertainment experience, educational experience and escape experience also had significant relationships in the indirect effect of Korean image on cosmetics purchase intention. In the moderating effect analysis comparing the two countries, in Malaysia, escape experience had a significant effect on the image of Korea, but in the Philippines, entertainment experience and educational experience had a significant effect on the image of Korea, so there was a difference between the two countries. The effect of Korean image on cosmetics purchase intention was confirmed significantly in both countries, but it was greater in the Philippines than in Malaysia. This research is meaningful in that it is an empirical study based on the systematic framework of experiential economy theory. In order to maintain the effectiveness of the Korean Wave(Hallyu), various improvements in the contents that make up the Korean Wave are required and policy consideration by the relevant authorities is needed. It is also necessary to consider each country's different acceptance of the Korean Wave(Hallyu).

해외에서 한류라 칭하는 콘텐츠 소비가 한국이란 국가 이미지에 긍정적 효과를 가져오며 이는 제품 구매로 이어진다는 연구가 많이 이루어졌으나 고객과의 가치 관계로 연결하는 체험경제이론에 기반한 실증연구는 미미하였다. 그래서 본연구는 체험경제이론에 근거하여 한류 경험이 있는 말레이시아와 필리핀 거주 지역 여성을 대상으로 한국 이미지와 화장품 구매의도에 미치는 영향을 실증분석연구를 하였다. 본 연구는 체험경제이론을 바탕으로 말레이시아와 필리핀 거주 지역민 중 한류 경험이 있는 여성을 대상으로 한국 이미지와 화장품 구매의도에 미치는 영향을 실증분석연구를 하였다. 연구결과로 오락적 체험, 교육적 체험과 일탈적 체험은 한국 이미지에 유의한 수준에서 영향을 미쳤으나 심미적 체험은 그렇지 못했다. 한국 이미지가 화장품 구매의도에 미치는 간접효과도 오락적 체험, 교육적 체험과 일탈적 체험에서 유의적 관계가 확인되었다. 두 국가를 비교하는 조절효과 분석에서 말레이시아는 일탈적 체험이 한국 이미지에 유의한 수준에서 영향을 미쳤지만, 필리핀은 오락적 체험과 교육적 체험이 한국 이미지에 유의한 영향을 미쳐 두 국간 차이가 있었다. 한국 이미지가 화장품 구매의도에 미치는 영향은 두 국가에서 유의적으로 확인되었으나 필리핀의 경우가 말레이시아의 경우보다 크게 나타났다. 본 연구는 체험경제이론의 체계적 틀에 기반한 실증연구라는 점에서 의미가 있으며, 한류 효과성의 지속을 위해서는 한류를 구성하는 콘텐츠의 다양한 개선이 요구되어 관련 당국의 정책적 배려가 필요하고 콘텐츠 구성 시에는 개별국가의 각기 다른 한류 수용성을 고려해야 한다.
