As the audio content market grows due to the spread of the AI speaker market and the influence of connected cars, the demand for podcast service is increasing. Therefore, in this study, the behaviors of podcast users were identified and the user types were classified. In the background study, podcast usage motives and user types were studied, and they were referred to when making the questionnaire. In the survey, preferred audio content was identified according to the situation, and in the in-depth interview, the user type and insights were derived by identifying the audio service usage behavior. As a result of the survey, there was little difference between preferred content for single listening and multitasking, but the difference in preferred content according to time period was statistically significant. The three user types derived from the in-depth interview were divided into users who listen alone for the purpose of study, find and listen to useful information quickly while on the go, and multitask and listen to the light and comfortable contents. It is expected that the results of this study will be an important reference for designing an audio content platform to improve user experience.
