The Amazon Go was the catalyst of O4O era. O4O is an advanced business model from O2O, which is the integration of offline service to online, especially through smart phone network. We also find the O2O strategy of digital contents companies such as Kakao and Line. This study examined the relation between online character experience and offline purchasing intention on related character products. The SEM was designed on the former study that based on the theory of user experience and brand attitude. The result of this study shows that the users' online experience have influence on the purchasing intention of offline related products and there exist the mediating routes of satisfaction of user experience, brand preference and brand reliability. There are no statistical support to the relation between satisfaction of user experience and purchasing intention. These points illustrate what marketers better to focus on transmedia strategies.

This study explores the effect of moral identity on attitude toward and purchase intention of upcycled fashion products by comparing purchasers and non-purchasers. Data from 127 purchasers and 307 non-purchasers collected through a survey was analyzed using descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, model invariance check, and multiple-group comparison tests using Amos 23.0. Results indicate consumers with purchase experiences of upcycled fashion products showed a higher level of moral identity (internalization and symbolization), positive attitude toward upcycled fashion products, and purchase intention than did consumers with no purchase experience. In model tests, internalization affected attitude toward purchasing upcycled fashion products, whereas symbolization affected purchase intention, regardless of purchase experience. The effect of symbolization on purchase intention was consistent with prior studies focusing on charity behaviors that are highly visible to others. These findings demonstrate that fashion products are visible and symbolic, so it should be carefully considered in ethical consumption studies. From these results, researchers may obtain insights on the process of how consumers apply moral identity to their purchase intention regarding upcycled fashion products. Likewise, marketers may enhance satisfaction of consumers with a high level of symbolization by putting special tags and logos that clearly highlight the products' upcycled nature.

This study is set out to investigate the factors that influence customers' behavior of choice and switching between online and offline channels, separating the purchase decision into two stages, i.e., information search and purchase. Factors influencing channel choice are found to differ from stage to stage. The main results of this study are as follows. At the information search stage, customers' channel knowledge had impacts on the choice of the channel. Customers are more likely to visit offline bookstores when they have hedonic shopping orientation and higher involvement level with books. On the contrary, customers are more apt to search online when they have a lot of online shopping experiences. At the purchase stage, the results varied according to the search channel. When customers search for information online, the following variables lead to online purchases: online shopping experiences with books, price-focused shopping orientation, and time availability for shopping. Perceived risk made customers purchase offline even though they searched online. In case of offline searching, customers with more convenience-focused, hedonic-focused shopping orientation and less tim availability purchased offline.

According to a recent survey, the sales amount of luxuries and imitations is getting larger. Especially young consumers in 2,30's have a strong desire to own luxuries, so I tried to build a theoretical base on the 20's consuming trend. Meanwhile, targeting university students who represent consumers in 20's, I investigated the recognition of luxuries, shopping experience, main shopping items, monthly spending money, and future purchase intention. I also investigated shopping experience of imitation, main shopping items, purchase reasons, and future purchase intention. I tried to suggest lots of academic and practical implications in marketing strategy building of luxury brand, aiming young consumers in 20's. On the social-psychological view point, young generation have relatively weak sense of control or self-efficacy. So, they are easily submerged in conspicuous consumption by the atmosphere around. As a result of empirical research, I found that Korean students recognized luxuries as excellent in quality, or the world famous brand. In particular, statistically significant gender difference was shown in the luxuries characteristics as the high-quality brand for male students and the world famous brand for female students. Most respondents have experience buying luxuries. And more monthly spending money, more experience they have. Respondents' purchased items were in order of fashion goods, clothing, watches/jewelry, cosmetics/perfume. And the statistically significant differences between gender and monthly spending money were shown. Not many respondents purchased luxuries imitations, and main purchased items were fashion goods. Most of purchase motives are price over quality and economy reason. The phenomena that the respondents of relatively high levels of monthly spending money had lots of luxuries imitations shopping experiences is interesting. Female students showed higher purchase intention for luxuries and imitations than male students. There was no statistically significant difference in grade level, but was found something interesting in monthly spending money. As monthly spending money increased, the purchase intention of luxuries increased, but the purchase intention of luxuries imitations decreased. However, non-linear trend was shown in the specific allowance level. This is replicate of the luxuries imitations purchase experience. Following studies will be needed for the exact interpretation for this. This study is an exploratory and descriptive, but can provide lots of fruitful academic and practical implications in formulating luxuries marketing strategies.

구매 계약과 구매에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 상품 가격에 반응하는 소비자의 행동은 꾸준한 주목을 받아왔다. 기존의 많은 연구에서 소비자는 상품을 사거나 계약을 할 때 과거 있었던 가격 또는 변할 수 있는 미래 가격을 고려하지 않고 현재 주어진 가격에만 반응을 보인다는 가정을 하였다. 또 다른 연구에서는 소비자는 미래 있을 가격이 어떠한 확률 분포를 따르는 지를 정확히 알고 반응을 보인다고 조금은 과장된 가정을 하였다. 하지만 최근의 연구에서는 소비자가 상품 판매자의 가격 결정 정책을 고려하면서 상품 구매 또는 구매 계약을 한다는 즉 가격에 민감한 반응을 보인다는 가정을 하게 되었다. 이 연구에서는 소비자가 상품 구매나 구매 계약 시 필요한 정보들 중 가장 중요한 상품의 가격을 어떻게 얻어서 이용하는지 분석해 보고자 한다. 즉 상품의 미래 가격 변화를 소비자가 어떻게 추정하여 구매 계약과 구매 시 이용 하는지를 분석하고자 한다. 이 연구에서는 소비자가 상품 구매 계약 시 가격을 추정하는 방법으로 과거의 경험에서 얻어진 가격들을 이용한다는 가정하의 수학적 모형을 세워 소비자의 가격 추정이 실제 상품 구매와 계약에 미치는 영향 그리고 판매자의 가격 결정에 미치는 영향을 분석해 보았다.

The purpose of this study, due to recent increase of digital outdoor media, is to analyze the consumer experience of interaction with digital media. Through this study it was found that experience factor consisting of cognitive, emotional, and interactional factors has a mediating effect on brand preference and brand reliability which in turn influence consumers' purchasing intention. On the other hand, it was verified that the consumer satisfaction of the experience does not directly influence purchasing intention, but only through the mediation of brand reliability. This research has implications on the academic field as well as in work-level practices, as a study based on an actual operating digital media, not a laboratory simulation that verifies the importance of digital media experience in forming brand equity through immediate influence on brand preference and brand reliability.

This research focuses on the relationship between influencing factors of users' smartphone application download and consumers' purchase. The results show that there is some difference between them. The factors influencing mobile application download include word of mouth, usability, ease of use, functionality, enjoyment, interoperability, design, and experience while the factors influencing purchase are word of mouth, usability, ease of use, cost, functionality, enjoyment, interoperability, design, experience. An experience factor impacts on both download and purchase. Specially, enjoyment, usability, and functionality have strong effects on purchase. We also found out that mobile application type such as hedonic or utilitarian application also impacts on purchasing application. For utilitarian application, functionality impacts on purchase intension. Therefore this fact suggests that it is very important to understand the accurate purchasing influence of its consumer when setting up the marketing strategy of mobile application.
