In contemporary society interest in and consumption of beauty treatment are increasing, raising interest in health and beauty. However, beauty-related laws are becoming factors of hindrance of beauty development. Currently the Public Health Control Act plays a basic role in the beauty art business in Korea, However the contents are in discord with international laws and its definition is not clear. Therefore it is causing conflicts of different occupations and job associations which are similar to art business. Especially, because neither definitions nor policies on beauty care devices exist in the Public Health Control Act, beauty care devices using in foreign countries cannot be used in Korea due to classification as medical devices. Under this circumstance, therefore, beauty care device uses by beauty artists violate the law. The government has tried to solve these irrational regulations. Recently, the Small and Medium Business Administration announced 'the improvement plan of small business and young founders site regulation for public economy recovery' in a ministerial meeting on December 28, 2016. Regulations on policy preparation for skincare devices were inclusive in this announcement. It is the question whether the regulations will be executed or not. Even though beauty industrial competitiveness was presented in the 18th Presidential Council on National Competitiveness in 2009, it was not practiced. The proposal bills for beauty law improvement have been put forth several times since 2000 including an improvement plan for regulating beauty care devices. However, so far there have been no improvements. The damage on the regulation classifying beauty devices as medical devices is not only restricted to skincare. This develops beauty devices and the beauty industry which imports and exports beauty devices. When beauty devices are exported, complicated procedures are unavoidable and when beauty devices are imported, irrational problems like reregistration procedures and costs occur. The reason why an improvement plan has not gone into practice is the resistance of the dermatologists' association. Dermatologists tend to stand positively against harming public health by saying that beauty devices used by beauty artists cause people to suffer side effects. In contrast, anyone who has a licence to use beauty devices is able to use them in foreign countries. It is not only infringement of one's right as a beauty artist but also people's right to receive beauty care services. With this reason, Korean's current law under which beauty devices are ruled as medical devices should be revised with accordance to domestic surroundings. Therefore in order to advance and globalize the beauty industry, the support and cooperation of the Korean government and relevant associations is needed to legislate and revise the beauty devices laws. The relevant associations abandon regional self-centeredness and cooperate to define ranges, size and management of beauty devices for safe use. If no collaboration exists, an arbitration agency should be established to solve the problem.

본 연구는 피부미용 프랜차이즈 시스템의 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제공할 목적으로 한국과 미국의 피부미용 프랜차이즈 현황, 개설비용 및 서비스 내용을 조사하고 비교 분석하였다. 피부미용 프랜차이즈 현황 비교 분석 결과 한국과 미국 모두 주력 아이템은 페이셜 케어와 바디 케어이며 가맹점 수는 한국이 평균 54개로 미국의 평균 361개보다 적으나 이것은 프랜차이즈 시장 규모, 국토의 면적과 인구 등의 영향이 크다고 판단되었다. 개설 비용 비교 분석 결과 미국의 가맹비는 한국의 최대 가맹비보다 약1.5배 높으며 로열티는 한국이 20-60만원(월), 미국은 연간 매출액의 5-6%를 지급하며 Net Worth Requirement, Cash Requirement 등 개인 자산 확인을 필요로 하였다. 미국은 스파를 운영하는 업체가 많아 비용적인 부분에서 한국과 차이가 있었고, 교육 시스템에 대해 한국은 비용, 미국은 시간으로 정해져 있었다. 프랜차이즈에서 제공하는 서비스 내용 비교 결과 양국 모든 업체에서 페이셜 케어와 바디 케어를 중심으로 하고 있으며 한국은 대부분 브라이달 케어, 연구소를 운영하며 미국은 왁싱과 남성 관리, 핫 스톤, 스파 서비스를 추가로 운영하고 있었다. 양국 간의 기후나 인종 등의 차이와 함께 사회문화적인 분위기와 피부미용을 대하는 양국 간의 인식의 차이, 특히 개방도의 차이가 반영된 결과라고 판단된다. 향후 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 국내 피부미용 프랜차이즈 시스템을 발전적으로 보완한다면 해외 미용산업 프랜차이즈 시장에서 성장 가능할 것으로 전망된다.

The study verified the regulatory fit effect of the message focus and propensity regulatory focus delivered in the sales promotion situation of beauty services and products on the basis of the self-regulatory focus theory being actively discussed in the consumer behavior area of marketing. As the result of ANOVA analysis on the experimental design 2 (chronic regulatory focus: promotion focus/prevention focus, between factor) ${\times}$ 2 (message regulatory focus: promotion focus/prevention focus, within factor), the promotion focus group showed more positive response to the promotion focus message(4.88) of beauty services than the prevention focus group(4.40) so that the effect of regulatory fit appeared(t=1.79, p<.1), but the regulatory fit effect didn't appear in the prevention focus message(t=.58, p>.1) so that the hypothesis was partially supported. However, as for the promotion focus message of beauty products, the promotion focus group(4.62) showed more positive response than the prevention focus group(4.16), and as for the prevention focus message, the prevention focus group(4.89) showed more positive results than the promotion focus group(4.33) so that the effect of regulatory fit appeared(t=2.07, p<.05). Therefore, the result of the study shows that as for the service consumers perceive high risk, the sales promotion activity of the prevention focus message can be effective for prevention focus consumers and for promotion focus consumers as well. Otherwise, it suggests the marketing approach that the consumer evaluation is more positive when the advertising message focus fit the consumer regulatory focus.

This study examined the influence of social media on the beauty industry and analyzed beauty-related content on social media in China, Thailand, and Indonesia. The existing literature was reviewed and four social media platforms that display the active sharing of beauty-related content in the three stated countries were selected. Five information sources were then chosen from each social media platform and 115 top posts from these sources analyzed. Beauty-related material was shared on discrete social media platforms in the three countries. Differences were found in the presentation types, themes, and message strategies of the content depending on the type of product and services provided by each social media platform. The content on Xiao Hongshu in China consisted of images showcasing product specifications along with a focus on honest and detailed empirical product review messages from its general users. From Taobao Zibo, Wang Hong conveyed powerful and influential information that communicated instantly with viewers and delivered entertaining and sensory messages. In Thailand earnest reviews of beauty products were offered, along with firsthand testimonials through traditional content uploaded on YouTube. In Indonesia, beauty influencers posted creative and sensational photographs of makeup products on image-centered Instagram. This study expands the current scholarship on social media platforms and extends the scope of the extant research on beauty-related content in Asian countries. The practical implications of this study include useful indications on how beauty brands can use social media to promote their products.

Pre-Corona cultural content was largely formed face to face. For example, the service was great while visiting tourist attractions, visiting performances to see K-Pop, or visiting lectures to learn K-Beauty. However, after the coronation, the virtual world-centered Metaverse began to take the spotlight as non-face-to-face services changed. IT and cultural contents have been combined and developed into various digital services. In that sense, Metaverse, which breaks the boundaries between real-world space and virtual space, has the potential to escape from physical time and space constraints. However, Korea still lacks a Metaverse platform for cultural content. In particular, it is necessary to match each other's necessary services by providing Metaverse -oriented cultural contents that users want, including experienced cultural contents such as K-pop and K-beauty, away from cultural contents that are developed around history museums. Therefore, in this paper, we would like to propose a Metaverse-based cultural content matching platform where users can experience cultural content directly or indirectly.

Recently, the beauty industry has implemented personalized services based on skin big data. To increase competitiveness in the beauty industry, systematic data measurement and evaluation indicators are necessary to select data and obtain necessary knowledge. In response, this study sought to stably enhance the accuracy of skin diagnosis based on satisfaction and reliability. To this end, the research was conducted through focus group interviews (FGI), a case study of brands, and analysis of prior research results. In particular, as a result of analyzing keywords that classify skin types by brand, common survey items for skin types were oiliness and using moisturizer, cosmetic use and vascular of skin, external stimulus and blemish & freckles, facial wrinkle, outside activities, self-consciousness, and smoke. In additioin to the common questions of the preceding study and the brand survey items, the questions concerning complex skin types, seasonal change, facial color, wrinkles and elasticity were added, and the questions were presented in a total of 40 items. In particular, it suggested that skin measurement could be conducted by focusing on elasticity and pigmentation items by reflecting the results of prior research and the opinions of FGI, and based on this, a customized service with high satisfaction and high accuracy of beauty care based on this could be proposed. We hope that this study will facilitate active self-care by providing more satisfying skin stones and personalized cosmetics proposals, thus laying the foundation for the further development of the cosmetics industry.
