The Korean wave has been improving the national image and creating a new brand value for Korea as a symbolic soft power. Its spread has been operating as a kind of energy that is fueling national competition. The Korean wave creates a new type of tour and increases tourists' intention to visit special places revealed indirectly through mass media. People can vary highly in terms of awareness, attitude and behavioral pattern according to the degree of care for and interest in something. This is called involvement. Three hypotheses were established to study the effect of the Korean wave in terms of involvement.

최근 몇 년간 정보 검색 분야에서 문맥 광고에 관한 연구가 활발히 연구되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 관련된 연구들은 대부분 웹페이지 내용만을 활용하여 유사한 광고를 찾고자 하였다. 그럼으로써 동일한 웹페이지를 접속하는 다양한 의도를 가진 사용자들이 동일한 광고를 보게 된다는 한계가 존재하였다. 본 논문에서는 웹페이지의 내용뿐만 아니라 각각의 사용자들의 웹페이지 방문 의도를 웹 페이지 방문 히스토리로부터 추출하여 이를 활용한 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 또한 실험을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안된 기법이 사용자 방문 의도를 반영함으로써 기존 기법에 비해 성능이 향상되었음을 보여준다.

This study attempted to empirically verify the possibility of K-content for Chinese people who have recently slowed down due to restriction of movement and political and diplomatic conflicts, although it is a very meaningful market for Korea's content industry and tourism industry. As a result of the study, each item of K-content experience, national image, tourism attitude, and visit intention was derived as one factor, and only the national image factor was derived as two factors: 'functional image' and 'cultural image'. As a result of examining the influence relationship between them established based on previous studies focusing on the derived factors, all five research hypotheses were adopted. K-content experience was found to have a significant influence on both factors of the national image. It was found that it had a greater influence on cultural image factors than functional image factors, cultural image factors were found to have a greater influence on tourism attitudes, K-content experiences had a significant effect on tourism attitudes, and tourism attitudes had a significant effect on visit intentions. Based on the results of this study, it was once again confirmed that the national image even comtually bees an important factor for linking to practical tourism behavior, and in this respect, "culture" is an important key factor that can lead to practical tourism and visits. Previous national images indicate that if the functional aspect of the country was more emphasized, it is now necessary to focus more on the importance of culture than on the functional aspect. As the K-content experience has a significant effect on tourism attitude, it can have a positive effect on the formation of a positive tourism attitude that can lead to actual tourism behavior, so various efforts will be needed to form an active tourism attitude using K-content in the future. As the content and target scope of K-content are expanded and diversified, specific strategies for each sub-market using cultural contents in various fields should be established and implemented.
