본 연구에서는 최근 국내 면세점에서의 중요도가 급성장하고 있는 한국방문 중국인 면세점 구매객들을 대상으로 여행형태와 쇼핑행동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 다음과 같이 중요한 세 가지 의미있는 구매특성을 분석할 수 있었다. 첫째, 인구통계학적인 측면에서는 한국방문 중국인 관광객 면세점 이용행태에 관한 결과이다. 여행목적에 있어서는 휴양/관광이 72.9%로 절반이상을 차지하였다. 또한 전체 응답자의 약 40%가 3시간 이상의 쇼핑 시간을, 1시간 이상 2시간미만은 30%, 그리고 2시간 이상 3시간미만은 약 24%, 그리고 1시간미만은 전체 응답자의 약 6%가 쇼핑을 즐겼다. 특이한 점은 시간에 따른 쇼핑 지출액이 다르다는 것이다. 둘째, 한국 방문 후 면세점을 이용하는 중국인 관광객에게 상품의 브랜드(Quality of the brand)와 종류(Kinds of brand)에 따라 중국인들의 면세점내 구매의도 활성화가 더욱 진행됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 셋째, 한국을 방문하여 면세점을 이용하는 중국인 관광객들은 면세품 쇼핑 시 매장판매 직원 전문성에 대한 서비스 만족도가 증가할수록 충성도가 이에 비례하여 상승함을 파악할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 분석 결과에도 있듯이 면세점 쇼핑 활성화를 위해 가격 및 제품 경쟁력을 확보하고 고급브랜드를 공격적으로 유치하여 판매직원들의 전문성을 증대시키는 노력이 매우 중요한 마케팅 전략의 핵심인 것으로 나타났다.

This study started with the fact that the government puts a lot of budget into building a science museum, but there are more than one quarter of science museums with less than 50 spectators per day and many inefficient institutions. The number of visitors is an important factor in improving the efficiency of the science museum operation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relation between the service quality of the science museum and the customer satisfaction and the intention to revisit and to find out what kind of effort should be concentrated in the science museum to attract more visitors. Questionnaires were written in the exhibition, education, and culture fields of the Gwacheon National Science Museum. The results were derived by frequency analysis, reliability analysis, factor analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The results and contents of the study are as follows. First, in the field of exhibition, the quality of exhibition facilities was expected to affect customer satisfaction and intention to return, but did not have a meaningful relationship. Second, the education sector has been found to affect customer satisfaction and return intention in all aspects of service quality (operation and contents, instructors, educational facilities and environment). Third, in the field of culture (event), the quality of the cultural program influences the visitor satisfaction, but it does not affect the intention to revisit. The science museum can provide satisfaction to visitors by combining activities such as science and arts. Despite the limitations, it is necessary to make efforts to improve the visitor satisfaction and revisit by proceeding with the convergence research on the entire National Science Museum in the future.
