Despite an astronomical budget for public diplomacy, China is experiencing successive failures in public diplomacy. The unfavorable feeling towards China is increasing every year in the world and China needs a new public diplomacy to resolve anti-Chinese sentiment. Here, we found that viewers of Korean-Chinese student YouTuber Deemd formed a friendly image towards China after watching Deemd's China vlog. Therefore, in this study, we tried to examine whether Deemd's vlogs affect the improvement of China's country image theoretically guided by the theory of mere exposure effect. In addition, we examined whether the improvement of a country image causes the 'Halo effect' that leads to an increase in the intention to visit China and purchase intention of Chinese products. It is expected that the results of this study can serve as a new digital media diplomacy solution for countries, including China, that want to capture the hearts of foreign public in the era of a new digital public diplomacy.

The arrival and expansion of the Internet has extended consumers' options and has provided consumers' opportunities to offer their own consumption. Through a laboratory experiment, we investigated questions: 1) do consumers trust the accuracy of reviews posted by anonymous reviewers or experts and 2) do readers trust negative and positive reviews equally? The messages were created as a form of 4 scenarios for this study. The statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS Win(v.16.0) for descriptive analysis, and t-test. Our results from a 2(positive reviews vs. negative reviews)*2(consumer vs. expert) experiment design showed that there was a significant difference between consumers' review and experts' one in restaurant visit intention(p<.001) and information credibility(p<.001). Also, between positive review and negative one, significant difference was found in restaurant visit intention(p<.001) and information credibility(p<.01). Other results, limitations and future research directions were also discussed.

With the rapid development of mobile communication tools, customers are using SNS as a major information tool. SNS can provide information to a small number of customers as well as people around them, with information about a product or service that a small number of customers know through experience. With these characteristics, dessert cafes are being used as a major marketing tool for online websites and mobile phones using SNS. Therefore, in this study, theoretical considerations about e-WOM quality, perceived value, and visit intention were performed. The effect of e-WOM quality of dessert cafe on perceived value was analyzed and the effect of perceived value on visit intention was analyzed. Based on these results, I would like to suggest theoretical implications and practical implications for online marketing of dessert cafes. This study was conducted to survey the customers who have visited dessert cafe through oral communication within the last 6 months. The survey was conducted from September 4, 2018 to September 18, 2018, and was used for the analysis of 317 additional items. The research hypotheses between the e-WOM quality of the dessert cafe and the utilitarian value, hedonic value, and visiting intention were used the structural equation model(SEM). First, neutrality and interactivity have a significant effect on utilitarian value, but consensus and vividness have not significant effect. Second, It was found that the consensus, vividness, and neutrality had a significant effect on the hedonic value but interactivity was not found to have a significant effect. Third, hedonic value has a significant effect on visit intention, but utilitarian value has not significant effect. As a result, online e-WOM quality management is important.

Purpose: South Korea is one of the markets where diverse and innovative cuisines are being tried. Therefore, the expectations for Michelin star restaurants in South Korea are high. The expected value of a Michelin star restaurant consists of both hedonic and utilitarian aspects of the dining experience. These consumer expectations affect visit intention. Research design, data, and methodology: The survey period was from October 10, 2023 to October 18, 2023, and 302 copies were used for hypothesis verification. Result: Hedonic expected value was found to have a significant positive influence on short-term and long-term visit intention, but had no significant effect on mid-term visit intention. Utilitarian expected value was found to have a significant positive influence on short-term and mid-term visit intention, but did not appear to have a significant effect on long-term visit intentions. Short-term visit intention was found to have a significant positive influence on mid-term visit intention, and mid-term visit intention was found to have a significant positive influence on long-term visit intention. Conclusions: The theoretical implications are restaurants need to utilize third-party certification, such as the Michelin Guide. The practical implication is that Michelin star restaurants should provide expected value to increase short-term visit intention.

In line with the increasing demand for domestic travel, Reality Travel Programs(hereinafter referred to as RTP) in which actors don't have the script in program are increasing. We explored the impact of RTP "Viewing Satisfaction" and "Revisit Intentions". Firstly, factors of "entertainment", "sympathy", "aesthetic", "information", "interaction" and "Indirect Experience" were confirmed. Secondly, common factors that have a positive impact on Dependent variables in RPT were "esthetics" and "IE". By empathizing with the beauty of the environment and actor's emotions, the RTP had a positive influence to "VS" and wanting to visit the area. Provided a theoretical basis by verifying that viewing motives for RTP have a positive impact on VS and RI.
