The term 'animation' derived from the Latin 'anima' meaning spirit, life, or vitality. Although its original meaning was somewhat related to creation of life or incorporation of vitality into an inanimate or nonexisting entity by providing mobility through artificial manipulation, it is now used in a rather narrow sense to define collectively the cartoon-based films or tape-recordings and specialists who are involved in animation production or related areas are called animators. The current worldwide market for animation production is progressing and expanding enormously. Although the domestic animation market is ranked as third in the world in terms of overall quantity, the reality is that there are few high quality products that can compete with foreign animation products in the global markets. This issue is further discussed in this paper along with the current status of the domestic animation technology and production. This investigation concerns the comparative analysis of literature data on foreign and domestic animation, which can be a basis for the production of internationally competitive animation work.

This study attempts to empirically investigate the excess returns of growth stocks in the Korean stock market comparing with those of value stocks. Recently, a few of IT and bio-pharmaceutical stocks with high growth potentials have accomplished dramatically high returns in the Korean stock market. Whereas, important prior studies in this line have observed negative excess returns from investment of growth stocks on average. And a few studies have reported that the distribution of excess returns from growth stocks is not normal but positively skewed. Empirical results of the present study are consistent with those of prior studies. Interestingly, the present study observed serial inverse correlation between excess returns of growth stocks and value stocks. Also, regardless of growth or value stocks, the stocks with higher PEG(=PER/ROE) showed higher excess returns.

This study examines demand of the Korean TV VOD using monthly aggregate data and time series analysis models. In particular, the impact of box office attendance, number of IPTV subscribers, income and price of substitutes on TV VOD market is analyzed. Data on TV VOD download during the period 2013 January to 2018 June are used for the empirical analysis. TV VOD demand shows lower level of seasonality than box office attendance and the share of monthly top1 movie in TV VOD platform is also lower than that of box office attendance. The relationship between a movie's holdback and box office performance does not seem consistent. The empirical result of ARDL model reveals that in the short-run box office attendance, number of IPTV subscribers and price of substitutes have significant impact on TV VOD demand. The result on the long-term relation shows that income is the only determinant of TV VOD demand. The impact of box office attendance on TV VOD is not shown to be robust both for the short-term and long-term.

As the strategic competition between the United States and China for global hegemony intensifies, China is using economic sanctions against other countries more and more frequently. Republic of Korea, which has China as its largest trading partner but is an ally of the United States, is more likely to be a target of economic sanctions, as seen in China's retaliation toward its deployment of a THAAD missile-defense system. Against the background, this paper analyzes China's economic sanctions, especially focusing on its informality. China does not publicly declare economic sanctions in most cases, such as Korean one, in which the trade structure is in its favor and can take advantage of its position as a big buyer with huge markets. However, China responds in a more open and formal manner when it is related to its core interests, when it is impossible to exert substantial sanctions effect and when mutual disputes intensify and cannot maintain informality. Korea, which is vulnerable to China's informal economic sanctions, should prepare for them by analyzing the characteristics of China's economic sanctions in depth and thinking about various strategies and measures in advance.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze contagion in Asian foreign exchange markets using Extreme Value Theory and Copula. Our application deals with asymptotic dependence of daily exchange rate return for a sample of eight countries over period 1997.1.1-2005.4.13. The empirical results are summarized as follows. Firstly, Gumbel Copula is a good model to our data according to the value of AIC. Secondly, the extremal dependence between East Asian crisis countries became lower in the post crisis period than the crisis period. Thirdly, It seemed that high extremal dependence exists between East Asian countries with Singapore. Fourthly, the tail dependence between Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippine became higher in the crisis period than the total period and post crisis period. Fifthly, the fact that the extremal dependence between Korea and Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippine did not increase during the Asian Financial Crisis showed that the contagion effect was not the reason of the Korea's Fiancial Crisis. Sixthly, the extremal dependence between Asian exchange markets was not very high while comparing with the European exchange markets.

The study investigates the type of organizational culture, using the organizational culture assessment instrument(OCAI) developed by Cameron and Quinn based on the competing value model(CVM), and analyzed the gap between current and desirable organizational culture empirically. The analytic results show that while the organizational members prefer the relational organizational culture as a dominant organizational culture on the current level. Also they prefer the relational organizational culture as a desirable organizational culture on the future level. In addition, the diagnosis of organizational culture by the type of status reveals that while the public educational personnel and staff recognized the relational organizational culture as a strong culture, the local public service employee identified the hierarchical culture as a dominant culture on the current level. Those findings suggest the following implications. First, the sustainable management of organizational culture requires the suitable strategic tools. That is to say, they need to introduce and carry out practical strategies to sustain change and control for each type of organizational culture. Second, despite the fact that the balance among four types of organizational culture is needed the strategy to reinforce the dominant culture, considering the types of status and affiliation.

The aim of this paper was to provide basic data on revitalizing traditional markets in 389 undergraduate students who had purchased foods sold at a traditional market in order to understand the current state of usage of traditional market foods and to analyze degree of importance and satisfaction. From September 2015 to November 2015, questionnaires were filled out by respondents. Of the 389 questionnaires that were returned, 343 were used while 46 were discarded as incomplete. In the traditional market, high popularity was detected in foods such as 'Hotteok', 'stir-fried rice cake', 'Korean sausage', and so on in that order, which were mainly simple foods. There was a tendency that 'taste', 'hygiene', 'price', and 'quality' were considered as important, all of which scored more than 4 points for all residence types. In the difference analysis of the degree of satisfaction and importance in traditional market foods according to residence types, degree of importance was much higher than that of satisfaction for all selective attributes. In the results of ISA analysis for attributes of traditional market foods, those selling food in the second quadrant need to make more effort to improve 'hygiene' and 'quality' of food.

Korea's overseas construction industry has been rather depressed by the weakened profitability as well as the sharp decrease of the market shares due to the lack of international competitiveness and the declined international market. There exist a lot of various risks in performing the overseas construction, and especially EPC projects, which entail complicated process from different parts, also require a sophisticated procurement and management skill. Subsequently, to survive in the competitive international market, we need to establish strategies to select potentially profitable projects at the initial stage of bidding process and to mitigate the high degree of risk exposure through contract negotiation and its adjustment. This research discusses the trend of environment in international construction markets. Then, it identifies the key factors that affect the profitability significantly through the structured surveys from 59 actual overseas projects, and it analyzes the key factors by using statistical methods. This research provides the profitability evaluation bases, with which overseas construction participants can forecast and analyze the risk more systematically, by eliciting profit-influencing factors using the result of statistical analysis, literature review and structuring their cause-and-effect relationships. The profitability casual hierarchy structure describes the profitability factors' hierarchy in details and their interrelationships. It also enables us to find out critical factors directly related to profitability aggravation through a qualitative and quantitative analysis. Ultimately, with this hierarchy structure as the base, the research will suggest how to develop the quantitative profitability forecasting model.

본 연구에서는 기업의 증자와 관련하여 풍문설이 유포되었을 때 그에 대한 조회공시의 내용을 확인, 부인, 혹은 검토의 유형별로 나누고, 사건연구방법을 사용하여 공시의 정확성과 효용성(정보전달 효과)을 살펴보고, 공시가 적시성이 있는지를 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 실증분석에 따르면 조회공시는 대체적으로 효율적이지 못하다고 결론지을 수 있다. 우선 공시의 적시성에 있어서는 조회 공시일 이전에 주가 수익률이 급격하게 상승함으로 미루어 증권시장에 풍문이 난무하여 공시가 충분히 신속하지 않았다고 할 수 있다. 공시의 정확성과 그 효용성 측면에서 보면 부인공시 후에도 주가가 하락하지 않는 현상은 결코 합리적이지 못하다. 즉, 부인공시는 조회공시 후에 번복되는 경우가 없어 정확하지만 시장이 이를 자본화(Capitalize)하지 않아 정보로서의 효용성이 없다. 그런데, 조회공시 유형별로 정보전달 효과는 조금씩 차이가 있어 일반 투자자들에게 투자 전략적으로 시사하는 바가 있다. 확인공시의 경우는 주가의 상승정도는 다른 조회공시에 비하여 약하지만 공시 당일 유의한 양의 초과수익률(t=0때 2.12%)을 기록하여 확인공시의 효과가 있다 할 수 있다. 또한 검토 중 공시나 부인 공시의 경우, 확연하게 조회의 내용이 즉각적으로 시장에 전달이 되지는 못하지만, 소문이나 풍문의 진위가 추후에 지연되면서 시장에 반영이 되는 듯하여(특히 무상 증자설 부인의 경우) 제한적이지만 정보의 효용성을 볼 수 있었다. 한편 검토 중 공시의 초과수익률이 확인공시나 부인공시의 경우보다 월등히 높게 나타나 증권시장에 퍼져있는 막연한 풍문이 오히려 투자자들의 초과수익을 더 높일 수 있다는 증권가의 주장을 뒷받침한다. 결론적으로 조회공시 유형별로 정보전달 효과를 살펴보았을 때 증자에 대한 풍문은 그 진위여부나 실시시기에 관계없이 사후적으로 투자자의 수익률에 음(-)의 방향으로 작용하지 않는다는 것이다.
