In order to discover the effect of the buying motives on the purchasing of second-hand clothing, 112 university students who have purchased second-hand clothing over the past six months were surveyed and their responses were used for analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was found that design differentiation, habitual use, and economical factors had a meaningful effect on the purchase of second-hand clothes.

본 연구는 패션제품에 QR코드를 부착하여 소재와 세탁 등의 전문적 정보의 제공뿐 아니라 기업과 소비자, 소비자와 소비자를 연결하는 기능을 부여할 수 있도록 하기 위한 기초연구로 QR코드 적용 시 요구되는 정보에 대한 소비자의 인식과 선호를 조사하였다. 타 연령대보다 스마트폰 보급률이 높고 1인 가구의 비율이 높아 비대면 정보교환의 필요성이 높을 것으로 생각되는 20대를 대상으로 설문하였다. 현행 라벨을 통한 의류제품의 정보제공 방법에 대해서 개선의 필요성이 확인되었으며 특히 불충분한 정보제공, 전문적인 용어 사용, 세탁 기호의 불확실함이 불만족의 요인이었다. 따라서 다양한 방식으로 많은 정보를 전달할 수 있는 QR코드는 패션제품의 관리 정보제공의 효율적인 대안이 될 수 있을 것이다. 또한 응답자들은 아웃도어, 패딩, 정장 등의 고관여 의류 상품과 신체에 닿는 언더웨어류에 대해서 자세한 세탁방법, 사용 및 보관 시 유의사항, 소재의 기능성에 대한 정보를 얻고 싶어 했으며 캐주얼웨어, 코트에 대해서는 제품을 활용한 SNS 데일리룩, 제품과 어울리는 다른 상품, 비슷한 아이템의 추천 등 스타일링이나 의복 구매 정보를 제공받고 싶어했다. 따라서 QR코드를 이와 같은 다양한 정보 제공을 위한 웹사이트 또는 SNS의 연결수단으로 사용한다면 소비자들의 정보추구 욕구의 충족과 함께 현명한 제품 사용을 도울 수 있을 것이며 초 연결시대 패션제품의 새로운 역할을 부여하는 대안이 될 수 있을 것이다.

In addition, the study analyzed the impact these four types had on evaluations after impulsive buying (i.e., diversion in mood, regret for buying decision and a sense of financial loss, and dissatisfaction of products).
