In this paper, we investigated the approach of advertisement to game users. The interaction area in the game was considered to be an effective advertising delivery area. In order to verify this, theoretical research was applied to the theory of advertising in game interaction. Then, based on the theory, we designed and produced the contents of the Gamification contents. The game was produced by being classified as exposed advertisement and interactive advertisement. Based on these two, professional focus test was conducted. As a result, we have verified the design of a Gamification advertisement applied to game interaction. The validity of the theory of Interactive Advertising Design was acknowledged. However, production verification proved to be below average.

This study is to examine relationship between immersiveness aspect and the recognition of garners who are exposed to PPL (Product Placement Advertisement) in online game. The frequency of exposure, the placement type of PPL, the perception under the threshold of consciousness and the interest at the product and knowledge about PPL have been widely known as the factors of effectiveness in PPL advertising. In this study, 'immersiveness' is newly introduced to investigate the effectiveness of PPL advertising due to the unique characteristics of game which easily leads to immersion. Control group is exposed to movie clip and experimental group to lacing online game. In conclusion, the deep immersion has reduced the perception level of user on PPL except the variable of PPL placement. This study suggests that how to design the PPL placement in game for enhancing marketing effect is all the more vital, in spite of the result that the player in high immersion cannot distinguish different images.

본 논문에서는 지방자치단체에서 역점적으로 추진하는 행사나 신도시, 또는 중점 관광지 등을 홍보하는 수단으로써 3D게임을 제안한다. 현대의 도시는 잘 정비된 도로들, 고층건물들, 자연환경과의 조화를 이루는 친환경적인 요소들을 부각시키는 방법으로 정비되고 있으며 지자체들은 이렇게 변화된 도시의 모습을 홍보하는데 많은 노력과 경비를 들이고 있다. 변화된 도시의 모습을 가상현실로 구현하고 거기에 더하여 게임 기능까지 가진 콘텐츠가 지자체의 웹사이트를 통해 구현된다면 지자체의 행정에 관심이 없던 청소년들까지고 웹 사이트를 자주 방문하면서 자신이 속한 지자체에 대한 관심과 애정을 가질 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 이런 시뮬레이션의 방법에 3D 게임 엔진의 응용은 매우 유용한 수단이 될 수 있을 것이다. 컴퓨터 하드웨어 사양의 발전으로 근래에 출시되는 3D게임은 거의 실제와 같은 배경을 구현하는데 문제가 없다. 문제점으로 지적되는 높은 게임 개발비의 부담과 거의 1-2년이 걸리는 개발 기간은 기존에 개발된 게임엔진의 활용과 게임 내 광고를 활용하여 상당부분 해결할 수 있는 것으로 사료된다. 연구의 구체화를 위해 전라남도에서 중점적으로 추진하는 프로젝트인 '서남해안관광레저도시' 사업과 '2010 전남 F1 그랑프리'를 연구의 대상으로 삼았다.

How can new media devices and networks provide an effective response to the world's growing sector of cultural and historically-minded travelers? This study emerged from the question of how mobile handsets can change the nature of cultural and historical tourism in ubiquitous city environments. As wireless network and mobile IT have rapidly developed, it becomes possible to deliver cultural and historical information on the site through mobile handset as a tour guidance system. The paper describes the development of a new type of mobile tourism platform for site-specific cultural and historical information. The central objective of the project was to organize this cultural and historical walking tour around the mobile handset and its unique advantages (i.e. portability, multi-media capacity, access to wireless internet, and location-awareness potential) and then integrate the tour with a historical story and role-playing game that would deepen the mobile user's interest in the sites being visited, and enhance his or her overall experience of the area. The project was based on twelve locations that were culturally and historically significant to Korean War era in Busan. After the mobile tour game prototype was developed for this route, it was evaluated at the 10th PIFF (Pusan International Film Festival). After use test, some new strategies for developing mobile "edutainment content" to deliver cultural historical contents of the location were discussed. Combining 'edutainment' with a cultural and historical mobile walking tour brings a new dimension to existing approaches of the tourism and mobile content industry.
