The objective of this article is to identify an alternative strategy for brand marketing through a case study of the Korean boy band BTS, which has recently seen a huge success in the global music scene. BTS has actively used transmedia storytelling as a tool to survive in the competitive music market. Transmedia storytelling refers to stories that are expanded across different media platforms, engaging audiences to explore from one medium to another to undergo multiple experiences. It gives audiences various ways of enjoying cultural content and participating in cultural content production through numerous media outlets. BTS has established and spread its fictional universe through albums, music videos, short films and webtoons, and has launched diverse projects where fans actively share, create, and play with their content. By inviting fans to actively participate in and interact with the BTS universe spreading through multiple media platforms, BTS can keep its fans engaged and energized. These activities have generated an emotional bond between BTS and their fans, which further leads to a worldwide fandom, based not on a producer-customer relationship but on mutual trust. The BTS case demonstrates the potential of transmedia storytelling as a useful benchmark to provide a positive brand experience for customers, which eventually enhances brand attachment and brand loyalty.

The marine officer plays a pivotal role in the shipping organization as a professional who performs a complex and diverse function. On the sea, unlike land duty, the possibility of turnover increases due to characteristics such as living in isolated spaces, continuous shift work during a set sailing period, high intensity work tension, stress, and social isolation. In this study, the impact of the organization's civic actions on the intention of turnover as a mediator of organizational immersion was divided into three groups of large companies, small and medium-sized enterprises, and public enterprises to check the differences between each category in a structural manner. Analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences between the groups in loyalty and turnover intention when the sub-factors of organizational commitment and organizational citizen behavior of the marine officer, and the size of turnover intention were included. Organization citizen behavior did not directly affect turnover intention, but when indirect effects were included, there was an effect through loyalty, and relationship-oriented organizational citizen behavior negatively affected turnover intention through loyalty. Excluding public enterprises, the non-standardization path coefficients were -0.229±0.117 and -0.319±0.068, respectively, showing a statistically significant effect in large companies and SMEs. These results indicate that in order to lower the employee turnover intention in large corporations and small and medium-sized shipping companies, it is necessary to consider not only organizational citizen behavior but also measures to increase organizational commitment.

지난해 우리는 오랜 숙원이던 주곡 자급달성의 역사적 과업을 수행하였다. 이를 계기로 주곡위주의 농사에서 복합영농으로의 농업구조 개편의 필요성이 더욱 절실하게 되었으며 아울러 농민의 영농에 대한 목적의식도 돈벌이가 되는 상업적농업으로 탈바꿈하는 동시에 자율영농의식이 고조되는 등 현저한 변화를 가지고 오므로서 새로운 전환기를 맞이하였다고 할 수 있겠다. 그러나 이러한 두드러진 여건변화에도 불구하고 여전히 농가경제에 높은 비중으로 영향을 끼치는 농사는 벼농사임이 틀림없다. 그것은 우리의 영농규모중에서 벼를 생산하는 ''논''의 규모가 절대적인 비중을 점하기 때문이며 또한 지난 ''80년도 냉해로 그 작황이 평년대비 $64\%$로 떨어졌던 흉작이 농가경제에 얼마나 큰 타격을 주었는가를 상기할 때 더욱 그 중요성을 실감하게 된다. 따라서 올해도 대풍농사를 다시한번 실현해야 되겠다.
