비디오 게임 산업은 최근 몇 년 동안 폭발적인 성장을 경험했으며 글로벌 시장의 규모는 2024년까지 2,560억 달러(326조 원 이상)으로 시장규모를 예상하고 있다. 이러한 성장의 주요 요인에는 스마트폰의 발전으로 모바일 게임의 인기 증가라고 할 수 있음. 스마트폰과 태블릿의 보급이 확산되면서 사람들은 이동 중에 어디에서나 게임에 쉽게 접근하고 플레이할 수 있게 되면서 모바일 게임의 인기가 급증했다. 이러한 인기는 기존의 비디오 게임 장르에서 변형된 새로운 복합장르의 게임들을 탄생시키고 모바일 게임 시장에서 2014년부터 부각되어 온 하이퍼 캐주얼 장르의 성공사례는 이미 많은 논문이나 게임 장르에 관한 연구사례를 통하여 확인할 수 있다. 팬데믹을 계기로 급성장한 하이퍼 캐주얼 게임 시장은 최근 경쟁 심화로 수익성이 저하되면서, 그 대안으로 하이브리드 캐주얼 게임이라는 새로운 변형 장르가 주목받고 있으며 새로운 장르로 부상한 하이브리드 캐주얼 게임 장르의 정의와 이해를 돕고자 하며 향후 게임 장르의 동향 및 전망을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, models for predicting the popularity of mukbang content on YouTube were proposed, and factors influencing the popularity of mukbang content were identified through post-analysis. To accomplish this, information on 22,223 pieces of content was collected from top mukbang channels in terms of subscribers using APIs and Pretty Scale. Machine learning algorithms such as Random Forest, XGBoost, and LGBM were used to build models for predicting views and likes. The results of SHAP analysis showed that subscriber count had the most significant impact on view prediction models, while the attractiveness of a creator emerged as the most important variable in the likes prediction model. This confirmed that the precursor factors for content views and likes reactions differ. This study holds academic significance in analyzing a large amount of online content and conducting empirical analysis. It also has practical significance as it informs mukbang creators about viewer content consumption trends and provides guidance for producing high-quality, marketable content.

Along with the expectation about 5G network commercialization, interests in realistic and immersive media industries such as virtual reality (VR) are increasing. However, most of studies on VR still focus on video technologies instead of factors for popularity and consumption. Thus, the main objective of this research is to identify meaningful factors, which affect the view counts of VR videos and to provide business implications of the content strategies for VR video creators and service providers. Using a regression analysis with 700 VR videos, this study tries to find major factors that affect the view counts of VR videos. As a result, user assessment factors such as number of likes and sicknesses have a strong influence on the view counts. In addition, the result shows that both general information factors (video length and age) and content characteristic factors (series, one source multi use (OSMU), and category) are all influential factors. The findings suggest that it is necessary to support recommendation and curation based on user assessments for increasing popularity and diffusion of VR video streaming.

현재 앱 스토어 인기 차트 1위에서 7위까지의 순위를 3주째 차지하고 있는 Ordinary Factory의 Analog Film City 시리즈는 각 테마별 도시의 느낌을 입혀주는 사진 보정 애플리케이션이다. 이 애플리케이션은 트위터 등 Social Network Services 이용자들의 입소문을 타고 지속적인 판매 실적을 올리고 있다. 사진 보정 애플리케이션은 현재 무료 버전으로 출시된 툴만 수십 종에 이른다. 그 외에도 SNS에 기본 옵션으로 탑재된 보정 기능 또한 전문 애플리케이션 못지않은 훌륭한 성능을 자랑한다. 이런 때에 Analog Film City 시리즈가 SNS 유저 사이에서 선풍적인 인기몰이를 하는 이유는 레트로 콘텐츠가 트렌드의 중심에 자리한 요즘 시기에 별다른 전문성을 요하지 않는 간편한 조작으로 일반 이용자들의 감성을 표현해낸다는 점에서 기인한 것으로 여겨진다.
