This study suggested implications by dividing the concept of brand origin into national image and manufacturing capacity image, verifying the direct impact of these variables on brand trust and brand loyalty, and verifying the difference between products with the effect on brand trust of brand origin, which is the result of verification. The specific implications of this paper are as follows. First, brand origin does not directly affect brand loyalty, but it can have a direct impact on the preceding variable, brand loyalty. This study may conclude that it is desirable to define the factors that affect the purchase selection indirectly through the assessment of product properties or positive effects on brand image rather than having a direct impact on product purchase or selection. Second, the difference in brand origin influence by product characteristics was very evident. Past studies were limited to a few products, so pan-product testing was not conducted, and the empirical power was judged to be limited, so this study included a variety of products and tried to detect differences between products through actual empirical research. Involvement and self-congruity have been presented with results that can be judged as important variables for brand origin to affect brand performance and variables. Looking at the role of the brand origin for each product characteristic by distinguishing between product characteristics and whether or not products related to quality, history, authenticity, etc., the product recognized as high quality and the product recognized as having high integrity showed higher effect of the brand origin, but history was a product characteristic that did not show the effect of the brand origin.

In this research, through experiments, we show that incongruity of color between mediums has positive influence on brand attitude in terms of integrated management of brand. We also present that self-image congruence of 'brand-consumer' has moderating effect on such influence of color incongruity. Mediums were limited to the ones that magnifying visual influence in order only to observe influence of color. With the same reason, visual factors other than color were coherently set or held constant and we chose brands with either low familarity or no previous knowledge. As a result, we find that brand attitude by the incongruity of color between mediums was higher compared to brand attitude by the congruence of color. In case with lower self-image congruence of brand-consumer we show higher change in attitude compared to the one with higher self-image congruence of brand-consumer. We believe our findings are interesting to note that brand may be enhanced by forming positive brand attitude through brand expression i.e., color of visual factors. In addition, we suggest that level of congruence and diversity of brand expression is in fact deeper or wider than that of brand manager's intuition. We see that it is possible for studying brands the incongruity which has been studied as a strategy to reposition mature brands can be a way of improving the recognition on new brands.

This study is based on recent advances in celebrity traits and self-determination researches to address how consumers develop the strong attachment to a "star brand," and the effect of consumer's attachment to star brand on evaluation of product brand sponsored by the star. We use the consumers' need satisfaction and star traits as major causal factors that influence consumer's attachment to a star brand. Specifically this article uses autonomy need, relatedness need, competence need as the dimensions of need satisfaction and expertness, trustworthiness, likeability, and similarity as the key star traits. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of these factors on the consumer's attachment to star brand and how consumer's evaluation of product brand sponsored by star is moderated by the fitness level of between the image of star brand and the image of sponsored product brand. To collect the data, survey was taken in a University located in Incheon. Collected data are analysed using SPSS 15.0 and AMOS 7.0. The results show that when the star brand is perceived as more trustworthy and likeable, and satisfies autonomy need and relatedness need, the consumer is more likely to become strongly attached to him or her. The hypothesis that consumer's attachment to star brand will have the positive influence on the evaluation of product brand sponsored by star is supported. And hypothesis that consumer's attitude to a sponsored product brand is moderated by the fitness level of between the image of star brand and the image of sponsored product brand is also supported. The empirical results imply that star brand to which consumers are attached may have the significant positive impact on the consumers' evaluation process of endorsed product brand and purchase behavior, and that marketers should consider need dimensions which target consumers want to satisfy and the fitness level of between the image of star brand being considered as endorser and the image of product brand.

돼지고기 생산은 소비자의 구매 욕구에 따라야 하는데, 국민소득 증대와 건강에 대한 관심고조로 고품질 안전 돈육 생산의 필요성이 그 어느 때보다 절실히 요구되는 시점이다. 이런 시대적 요청에 따라 정부에서도 품질이 고급화된 돼지고기를 생산하기 위한 방안으로 브랜드돈육 육성에 박차를 가하고 있다. 2005년에는 농림부와 농협중앙회가 주관한 제 3회 우수 축산물 브랜드 경진대회를 개최한 바 있고, 2005년에는 『소비자 문제를 연구하는 시민의 모임』이 농림부로부터 우수 축산물브랜드 인증기관으로 승인 받아 한우 13개소, 돼지 12개소 브랜드 생산업체를 인증하였고, 2006년에는 닭이 신규로 추가되어 3개 축종에 대해 브랜드 인증사업이 진행 중에 있다. 금후에도 브랜드 인증과 관련된 사업은 정부나 소비자단체에서 지속적으로 추진될 것으로 전망되므로 양돈 생산농가와 업체에서는 브랜드 돈육을 생산할 수 있는 노력을 꾸준히 실천해야 할 것으로 생각된다. 브랜드 돈육 생산은 종돈, 사료, 사양기술 등을 통일하고 돼지고기의 품질을 높이며, 돈육을 소비자의 식탁까지 안전하게 유통시키고, 브랜드관리에 최선을 다하는 체계화된 일련의 사업이라 할 수 있다. 이런 시점에서 돼지고기 품질 고급화 생산을 위한 사양기술 방안에 대하여 살펴볼까 한다.
