Brand personality is the human-like traits of brands that consumers can use to identify brands. Despite the importance of brand personality, there has been limited research about it in Korea recently, especially for casual apparel brands. Considering the changes in lifestyle and the increasing popularity of leasure activities in Korea, it is important to analyze the brand personality of casual brands for understanding Korean consumers. This study aimed to analyze the brand personalities of eight well-known casual brands in Korea, and to investigate the relationship between the brand personalities and brand preference. Specifically, this study questioned whether the similarity in brand personalities leads to similar patterns of preference for the brands. The eight brands were carefully selected so that they can well represent the diversity in the dimensions of perceived brand personality, while also being well-known to the participants of the survey. Factor analysis of the data from the survey of Korean university students yielded five factors of brand personality: liveliness, high class, ordinariness, rationality, and reliability. The eight brands showed significant difference across the five factors. Multidimensional scaling analyses of the brands were conducted based on the similarity in brand personality and brand preference respectively. The result showed significant difference in the relative distribution of the eight brands in the two-dimensional space of the analyses.

Social development led to systematic changes in the gender division of housework and the increase of house husbands. Accordingly, the demand for programs on child rearing for fathers is high. This study aimed to present a design for the brand mark and station identification for a TV channel specializing in childcare for house husbands. This study designed a brand mark and an applied brand mark, based on a literary review of previous studies. A survey on the necessity, preference and brand awareness of this channel was conducted twice afterwards, targeting 55 parents who are raising children who are in between the age of 6 months to 37 months. The first survey showed that the parents are in need of childcare-related channels due to their worries and fear towards childcare. When asked about their preferences and brand awareness towards this channel, some respondents were negative towards the form and colors used in the proposed brand mark and applied brand mark. This was reflected in the improved version and was tested in the second survey, which showed that respondents preferred the form that reminded them of children and found it more suitable. In regards to colors, respondents preferred high chroma navy blue.

This study aims to investigate the influence of emotional engineering factors on brand preference and loyalty in smartphone product design. The emotional engineering factor was divided into color, performance, usability, value, and reliability, and the relationship between brand preference and loyalty was empirically analyzed. As a result of the analysis, the emotional engineering factor in the smartphone product design has a positive effect on the brand preference, and the factors having the greatest influence are the performance and color factors. In smartphone product design, the emotional engineering factor has a static effect on loyalty, and the factors that have the greatest influence are reliability and performance factors. The higher the brand preference in product design, the greater the affect on loyalty. It is necessary to approach product design that fits the characteristics of consumers by identifying the influential factors among the product design emotional engineering factors.

월병은 아시아의 여러 나라들, 특히 중국 중추절의 중요한 전통 음식이다. 중국의 디자인이 강화되면서, 사람들의 월병 포장 디자인에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. CNPP 데이터에 따르면, 2018년 말까지, 86.17%의 사람들이 월병을 구매한 것은 그것의 포장 디자인 때문이었다. 따라서, 본 논문은 월병의 포장 디자인에서 출발하여, 월병 포장 디자인에 대한 중국 소비자들의 선호를 분석하고, 월병 포장 디자인에 대해 방향성을 제안하는 것을 목적으로 한다. CNPP의 시장 보고서에 따르면, 중국 10대의 인기 월병 브랜드를 대상으로 선행연구를 통해 포장 디자인의 브랜드 로고, 색채, 형태, 재질 4가지 디자인 요소를 도출하였으며 중국 소비자를 대상으로 선호도 설문조사를 진행하였다. 설문지 결과에 따라, 월병 포장 디자인 4개 요소 중 소비자들이 가장 선호하는 디자인 유형을 분석해, 중국 월병 포장 디자인에 대한 디자인 방향을 제시했다. 본 논문은 설문지 인원수 및 포장 디자인 요소 측면에 한계성이 존재하기 때문에, 본 논문이 소비자의 선호도를 높이는 월병 포장 디자인의 기초 자료가 되어, 앞으로 구체적인 포장 디자인 방안에 도움이 되기를 기대한다.
