Purpose - Due to the recent slowdown of growth in global luxury brands, which have been an engine of our domestic fashion market growth, there is an increasing need to develop a global market for domestic high-priced fashion brands. In spite of the large scale of trade between Korea and China with respect to fashion products, current trade concentrates on middle- and low-priced products rather than high-priced products. Diversification of the trade between Korea and China in terms of the price levels of trade products is needed. An understanding of Chinese consumption values and purchase intentions for luxury fashion brands will be very helpful for the establishment of strategies with the aim of increasing the level of trade with regard to high-priced fashion products. Therefore, the study aimed to identify the differences in the clothing consumption values of South Korean and Chinese women in their 20s, especially with reference to how those values affect their preference and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. Research design, data, methodology - The study was implemented through a descriptive survey method using a self-administered questionnaire. The sample consisted of 283 Korean and 306 Chinese women in their 20s, residing in Seoul, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shanghai. Data were collected from March 3 to 15, 2014. A total of 589 completed responses were analyzed. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, t-test, and multiple regression analysis. Results - Fivefactors for clothing consumption values were formulated: conspicuous/social value, fashionability value, personality expression value, hedonic value, and practical value. There were significant differences between Korean and Chinese consumers in clothing consumption values (except social value), preference, and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. With regard to clothing consumption values, Chinese women attached more importance to fashionability value, personality expression value, hedonic value, and practical value than South Korean women. In addition, Chinese women's preference and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands were higher than South Korean women's. Second, in the case of South Korean women, social value, practical value, and fashionability value had positive effects on preferences for luxury fashion brands, while attractive/personality expression value and hedonic value had no influence. In contrast, in the case of Chinese women, social value and fashionability value had positive effects on preference for the luxury fashion brands. Third, in the case of South Korean women, social value and practical value had positive effects on purchase intentions for luxury fashion brands. In contrast, in the case of Chinese women, social value, personality expression value, and fashionability value had positive effects on purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. Conclusions - Considering the findings of the study, it is clear that differentiated marketing strategies are needed for luxury fashion brand markets in Korea and China.

본 연구는 국내 안경산업의 발전을 위해 디자인과 브랜드에 대한 인지도를 전문가 집단과 비전문가 집단으로 나누어 조사하고, 국내 제품들이 외국 제품과의 경쟁에서 우위를 점하기 위해 어떠한 방향으로 나아가야 하는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 비전문가 집단에서는 국내 브랜드와 해외브랜드간의 가장 큰 차이점을 디자인으로 꼽았고, 전문가 집단 역시 제품선택에 있어서 디자인을 최우선으로 고려하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 비전문가 집단에서의 국내브랜드 인지도는 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 전문가 집단에서는 해외브랜드 인지도보다 국내브랜드 인지도가 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 연구 조사 결과, 국내 안경산업의 재도약은 급히 처방하여 회복될 수 있는 상황이 아니며, 세계적인 브랜드로 도약하기 위해서는 기술과 품질의 향상뿐만 아니라, 다자인과 브랜드의 이미지 정착을 위한 노력과 투자가 선행되어야 할 것으로 나타났다.
