본 논문의 연구목적은 웹 예능을 마케팅의 측면에서 살펴보고, 한국과 해외의 소비자는 이에 대해서 어떻게 느끼고 있는지를 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위해서 문헌연구, 사례연구, 소비자 인터뷰 등의 방법을 사용하였다. 본 논문의 주요 결론은 다음과 같다. 우선, <달려라 방탄>의 사례를 통해서 본 웹 예능은 상품적인 측면에서 웹 예능 고유의 상호성을 활용, 출연자들과 시청자들의 요구를 예능 콘텐츠에 적극적으로 반영하고 있다. 가격적인 측면에서는 웹 예능은 보다 다양한 콘텐츠를 담고 있는 유료서비스를 운영하고 있었다. 다만 시청자들의 수입이나 연령대별로 유료서비스에 대한 만족의 정도는 달랐다. 유통의 측면에서 웹 예능은 기존의 TV 예능보다 시청자들을 훨씬 명확히 포지셔닝 할 수 있으며, 시청자와의 상호소통성이 강하고, 해외 수출에 있어서 정치적인 갈등이나 검열에서 비교적 자유롭다. 마지막으로, 홍보의 측면에서 웹 예능은 기존 시청자의 주축을 이루는 팬들에게는 다양한 방식으로 홍보되고 있으나, 팬 이외의 다양한 시청자들에 대한 홍보는 비교적 약하다. 위와 같은 분석을 기반으로 본 논문은 다음과 같 세가지 개선방안을 제안하였는데, 웹 예능의 소비자를 지역별·나이별로 세분하여 맞춤 마케팅을 진행하고 소비자들이 콘텐츠에 직접 의견을 낼 수 있는 전문적인 창구를 마련하고, 다양한 매체를 통해 폭넓게 홍보하는 것 등이다.

K-pop stars are an important influence in the era of digital culture based on emotions. The purpose of this study is to visually express the identity and worldview of their music in the virtual and real world, and to promote Korea's current and past culture. The study also intends to appeal to the emotions of the global fans by designing original textile in their music video 'IDOL' on Tiny TAN - a symbol of world pop star BTS. For design development, traditional Korean images shown in the 'IDOL' video were collected, patterns for each member were selected, and a motif was designed on Adobe Illustrator. We selected the dragon as the motif for V, cloud for Suga, chrysanthemums for Jin, mask for Jung Kook, hanok pavilion for RM, fan for Jimin, and Sam Taegeuk for J-Hope. The selected motifs were designed as per the four textile design arrangement methods: square pattern, 1/2 half drop pattern, turn-around pattern, and panel pattern. The design was presented by mapping Kwaeja to Tiny TAN character. The developed textile design can be used not only for character costumes in virtual space, but also for various products such as clothes, accessories, bedding, cosmetics, stationery, and food. By using it to produce goods inspired by K-pop stars, it can be used as basic data for the development of high value-added competitive products in the global market and create synergy effects of K-Design, which would lead a new trend in the design world.

2020년 들어 전대미문의 '코로나-19' 사태로 대중음악계가 위축되어 다양한 활로와 대안이 모색되는 가운데 뮤지션들이 비접촉 방식의 온라인 콘서트를 속속 실시하였다. 본 연구는 이런 점에 착안하여 2020년 6월에 실시된 방탄소년단(BTS)의 '방방콘 The Live'를 대상으로 비접촉 콘서트의 대안 포맷으로 적격한지에 대한 여부를 살펴보기 위해 음악전문가들이 참여한 온라인 콘서트 영상물의 내용분석과 이를 시청한 수용자들이 참여한 평가 수집 및 대안 제시형 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과 표본 공연 영상물은 오프라인 콘서트의 요소(현장성, 대면 교감성, 호응 행동성), 체감도, 비상시 대안 콘서트 포맷으로서의 만족도, 비상시 대안 콘서트 포맷으로서 편리성이 잘 반영된 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 팬들과의 교감성과 현장성의 반영은 매우 부족한 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 이 연구는 BTS의 '방방콘 The Live'가 비상시 비접촉 온라인 콘서트의 대안 포맷으로 기능할만한 가능성은 엿보였으나 국내는 물론 세계 음악계에 정착하는 수준으로 인정받기 위해서는 디지털 소통체계 및 기술장치 보완 등의 조치가 강구되어야 함을 암시한다.
