This study is about classical music lovers who write a lengthy concert review on instagram. The intention and objective of writing a review is discussed in addition to inter-communication between those reviewers. For the analysis, an interview with 8 reviewers are mainly analyzed with their reviews. As a result, it is found that some affordances of Instagram, easiness, randomness, and friendliness affects them to use Instagram more than other social media. Hence, since Instagram is image-based platform, it helps writers to keep their reviews from getting an attention by other users. Because of their sense of inferiority that they are lacking in classical music knowledge, continuous writing and reading of reviews help them accumulating some amount of cultural capital needed for understanding classical music in a proper way.

Unlike the past, which was limited to terrestrial broadcasts, many dramas are currently being broadcast on cable channels and the Internet web. After watching the drama, viewers actively express their opinions through reviews and studies related to the analysis of these reviews are actively being conducted. Due to the nature of the drama, the genre is not clear, and due to the various age groups of viewers, reviews and ratings from other viewers help to decide which drama to watch. However, since it is difficult for viewers to check and analyze many reviews individually, a data analysis technique is required to automatically analyze them. Accordingly, this paper classifies the topics of reviews that have an important influence on drama selection and reclassifies them into semantic topics according to the similarity of words. In addition, we propose a model that classifies reviews into sentences according to semantic topics and sentiment analysis through sentiment words.

As the role of online reviews has become increasingly crucial, numerous studies have been conducted to utilize helpful reviews. Helpful reviews, perceived by customers, have been verified in various research studies to be influenced by factors such as ratings, review length, review content, and so on. The determination of a review's helpfulness is generally based on the number of 'helpful' votes from consumers, with more 'helpful' votes considered to have a more significant impact on consumers' purchasing decisions. However, recently written reviews that have not been exposed to many customers may have relatively few 'helpful' votes and may lack 'helpful' votes altogether due to a lack of participation. Therefore, rather than relying on the number of 'helpful' votes to assess the helpfulness of reviews, we aim to classify them based on review content. In addition, the text of the review emerges as the most influential factor in review helpfulness. This study employs text mining techniques, including topic modeling and sentiment analysis, to analyze the diverse impacts of content and emotions embedded in the review text. In this study, we propose a review helpfulness prediction model based on review content, utilizing movie reviews from IMDb, a global movie information site. We construct a review helpfulness prediction model by using an explainable Graph Neural Network (GNN), while addressing the interpretability limitations of the machine learning model. The explainable graph neural network is expected to provide more reliable information about helpful or non-helpful reviews as it can identify connections between reviews.

This study tried to explore the contents of film critics' reviews reported in the press. Based on fifty nine Korean movies with over 100,000 audience in 2017, this study collected 1113 reviews from fifty five movies with the exception of four without reviews. This study focused on the correlation between film's overall quality and four evaluation items such as directing, acting, story, and the visual. Examining the difference in the report timing of the review, the length of the review, and the intensity of the opinion, this study also analyzed the relationship between the internal aspects of reviews and box office performance. According to the results, the valence of critics' reviews was generally positive. Looking at the difference of reporting time, this valence was higher in the week before release than in the release week of film. The evaluation items of reviews were highly covered both before movie release and in the opening week. These were significantly declined in the second week of release. In the relationship between the number of reviews by each movie and box office performance, a positive correlation was found.

The social consciousness on fake reviews has triggered researchers to suggest ways to cope with them by analyzing contents of fake reviews or finding ways to discover them by means of structural characteristics of them. This research tried to collect data from blog posts in Naver and detect habitual patterns users use unconsciously by variables extracted from blogs and blog posts by a machine learning model and wanted to use the technique in predicting fake reviews. Data analysis showed that there was a very high relationship between the number of all the posts registered in the blog of the writer of the related writing and the date when it was registered. And, it was found that, as model to detect advertising reviews, Random Forest is the most suitable. If a review is predicted to be an advertising one by the model suggested in this research, it is very likely that it is fake review, and that it violates the guidelines on investigation into markings and advertising regarding recommendation and guarantee in the Law of Marking and Advertising. The fact that, instead of using analysis of morphemes in contents of writings, this research adopts behavior analysis of the writer, and, based on such an approach, collects characteristic data of blogs and blog posts not by manual works, but by automated system, and discerns whether a certain writing is advertising or not is expected to have positive effects on improving efficiency and effectiveness in detecting fake reviews.

레스토랑 리뷰 분석을 위해서는 음식메뉴 개체명 인식이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 현재의 개체명 사전을 이용하여 리뷰 분석을 할 경우 구체적이고 복잡한 음식메뉴명을 표현하는데 충분하지 않으며 지속적인 업데이트가 힘들어 새로운 트렌드의 음식 메뉴명 등이 반영되지 않는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 레스토랑 전문 사이트와 레시피 제공 사이트에서 각 레스토랑의 메뉴 정보와 음식명 등을 래퍼기반 웹 크롤러로 수집하였다. 그런 다음 빈도수가 낮은 음식메뉴와 레스토랑 온라인 리뷰에서 쓰이지 않는 음식메뉴를 제거하여 레스토랑 음식 메뉴 사전을 자동으로 구축하였다. 그리고 레스토랑 온라인 리뷰 문서를 이용해 음식 메뉴 사전의 엔티티들이 어느 유형의 레스토랑 리뷰에서 발견되는지를 찾아 빈도수를 구하고 분류 정보에 따른 비율을 사전에 추가하였다. 이 정보를 이용해 여러 분류 유형에 해당되는 음식메뉴를 구분할 수 있다. 실험 결과 한국관광공사 외국어 용례사전의 음식 메뉴명은 1,104개의 메뉴가 실제 레스토랑 리뷰에서 쓰인데 비해 본 논문에서 구축한 사전은 1,602개의 메뉴가 실제 레스토랑 리뷰에서 쓰여 498개의 어휘가 더 구성되어 있는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이와 아울러, 자동으로 수집한 메뉴의 정확도와 재현율을 분석한다. 실험 결과 정확률은 96.2였고 재현율은 78.4, F-Score는 86.4였다.

Recently, due to the increase of online reviews and the development of analysis technology, the interest and demand for online review analysis continues to increase. However, previous studies have not considered the emotions contained in each vocabulary may differ from one reviewer to another. Therefore, this study first classifies the customer group according to the customer's grade, and presents the result of analyzing the difference by performing review analysis for each customer group. We found that the price factor had a significant influence on the evaluation of products for customers with high ratings. On the contrary, in the case of low-grade customers, the degree of correspondence between the contents introduced in the mall and the actual product significantly influenced the evaluation of the product. We expect that the proposed methodology can be effectively used to establish differentiated marketing strategies by identifying factors that affect product evaluation by customer group.

Following the recent advancement in the use of social networks, a vast amount of different online reviews is created. These variable online reviews which provide feedback data of contents' are being used as sources of valuable information to both contents' users and providers. With the increasing importance of online reviews, studies on opinion mining which analyzes online reviews to extract opinions or evaluations, attitudes and emotions of the writer have been on the increase. However, previous sentiment analysis techniques of opinion-mining focus only on the classification of reviews into positive or negative classes but does not include detailed information analysis of the user's satisfaction or sentiment grounds. Also, previous designs of the sentiment analysis technique only applied to one content domain that is, either product or movie, and could not be applied to other contents from a different domain. This paper suggests a sentiment analysis technique that can analyze detailed satisfaction of online reviews and extract detailed information of the satisfaction level. The proposed technique can analyze not only one domain of contents but also a variety of contents that are not from the same domain. In addition, we design a system based on Hadoop to process vast amounts of data quickly and efficiently. Through our proposed system, both users and contents' providers will be able to receive feedback information more clearly and in detail. Consequently, potential users who will use the content can make effective decisions and contents' providers can quickly apply the users' responses when developing marketing strategy as opposed to the old methods of using surveys. Moreover, the system is expected to be used practically in various fields that require user comments.

This study analyzes yelp's online restaurant reviews written in 2019 and explores the factors influencing the decision of the usefulness for online reviews in the restaurant consumption decision process. Specifically, factors expected to affect review usefulness are classified according to the Elaboration Likelihood model. Also, it is assumed that the price range of the restaurant would have a moderating role. For the analysis, datasets provided by yelp.com in February 2020 are used. Among the datasets, online reviews of businesses located in Nevada in the US and belonging to the Food and Restaurant categories are targeted. As a result of the negative binomial regression analysis, it is confirmed that the central cues including review depth and readability and the peripheral cues including review consistency, reviewer popularity, and reviewer exposure positively affect the review usefulness. It is also confirmed that the influences of antecedents that affect the review restaurant prices moderate the effect of the central and peripheral cues on the review usefulness. It also provides implications for the need for price-differentiated review management strategies by review platforms and restaurant businesses.
