Purpose - This study aims to predict the future market and draw policy implications by analyzing the trend of outsourcing housework through the food subscription service. Research design, data, and methodology - Content analysis was conducted on the consumption value emphasized in advertisements by item targeting food subscription service advertisements. Advertisements used as research data were extracted via keyword searches on Google web pages. A total of 30 advertisements selected were used for the final analysis. Result -The consumption values emphasized in the advertisements for staple foods, refreshments, and special foods were analyzed by considering the following factors: price, convenience, health, and pleasure. Convenience and health were emphasized in the staple foods, and price and pleasure were emphasized in the snacks. In the case of special foods, convenience and pleasure appeared together with a focus on health. Conclusion - Based on the trend of food subscription services, the implications for the market and policies for outsourcing housework through home meal replacement can be presented. Considering that the consumption value of a food subscription service is differentiated by item, it is necessary to formulate a plan to develop the market and policies related to outsourcing housework.

This study classified five types of online food subscription economy: replenishment, curation, surprise, membership, and visitation. An online survey was conducted with 314 customers who experienced 5 types of online subscription economy. This study selected the characteristics of the food subscription economy as convenience, perceived personalization, economic utility, and timeliness through previous studies. The effect of the four characteristics on perceived value (utilitarian and emotional) and the relationship between customer engagement and perceived value, which are dependent variables that have never been used in the food subscription economy, were verified through the S-O-R model. In this relationship, we demonstrated how consumers' personal tendencies, such as need for cognitive closure and self-efficacy, mediate between timeliness and perceived value related to online food delivery. The study results are as follows. Perceived personalization, convenience, and timeliness had a positive effect on the utilitarian value in the order. It also had a positive effect on emotional values in the order of perceived personalization and timeliness. On the other hand, economic utility had no significant effect on practical branches. Customer engagement had a positive effect in the order of emotional value and utilitarian value. The lower the need for cognitive closure the more positive the utilitarian value. The lower the self-efficacy, the more positive the emotional value was perceived. Through the above study, companies that want to operate or start an online food subscription economy need a strategic approach rather than unreasonable price discounts in pricing policy. In addition, it is necessary to focus on marketing activities that provide emotional value by focusing on perceived personalization, which is the satisfaction factor of online food subscription.

The trend of satisfying consumer needs (payment for mobile communication, music services, cab ordering, banking products, and food delivery) on a unified online platform has shaped a digital ecosystem, an instrument creating a unified space of economic interaction. Representatives of e-commerce are major stakeholders in the development of such tools. In particular, subscription services (multiservice subscriptions) allow users to create their own ecosystems based on their personal preferences. The rate of subscription service use is growing around the world, yet understanding of the peculiarities of development of this e-commerce sphere is limited due to insufficient research.The study aims to determine the motives and barriers to the use of subscription services (multiservice subscriptions) by consumers and their relationship with consumer characteristics.Proceeding from an online survey of 200 users, the study determines the relationship between the gender and income of consumers and their use of subscription services, motives and motivators for using subscription services, and barriers to the choice of a particular subscription service. The obtained results may serve as a basis for managerial decisions in e-commerce and for improving the effectiveness of marketing solutions.

코로나 바이러스의 글로벌 팬데믹 여파로 인해 사회적으로 건강관리의 중요성이 더욱 강조되고 있다. 이러한 변화의 영향으로 국내 제약회사들은 정기적인 의약품 배달 서비스, 즉 의약품 및 건강기능식품 구독 서비스를 도입하였다. 현재 이 시장은 지속적으로 성장하고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 이러한 정기 서비스는 복용하지 않은 약이 남아 폐의약품이 증가하는 새로운 환경 문제를 야기한다. 폐의약품 관련하여, 환경부는 폐의약품을 일반 생활 쓰레기와 분리하여 수거 및 처리하도록 규정하였지만 실제로 이 규정이 충분히 이행되지 않는 것이 현실이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 폐의약품의 양을 줄이면서 건강관리를 촉진하는 규칙적인 약 복용 관리뿐만 아니라 약물 폐기에 대한 인식과 실천을 함께 향상하기 위한 서비스를 제안한다. 서비스 설계를 위한 사전조사로, 성인 51명을 대상으로 약 복용 습관 및 폐의약품 수거에 대한 인식을 확인하는 설문조사를 실시하였다. 허니콤 (Honey Comb) 모델을 기반으로 서비스 설계의 가이드라인을 만들고, 사전조사 결과와 서비스 디자인 방법론을 활용하여 서비스를 구체화하여 프로토타입을 제작하였다. 프로토타입의 사용성을 검증하기 위해, 1차 사용자 태스크 조사를 진행하여 프로토타입의 문제점을 파악하였고, 이를 개선한 후 서비스의 효과성을 확인하고자 성인 49명을 대상으로 2차 사용성 검증을 하였다. 사용성 검증은 SPSS Mac 버전 29.0을 사용하여 설문 자료분석을 실시하였다. 설문의 평가결과는 빈도분석 (Frequency Analysis)과 평가 항목 간의 연관성을 확인하기 위하여 스피어만 상관분석 (Spearmann Correlation Analysis)을 진행하였다. 본 연구는 의약품 구독 서비스 확산에 따른 폐의약품 문제에 대한 해결책을 제시하고자 하였으며, 지속가능한 디자인을 고려한 건강 관리 서비스에 대한 기초 연구로서 의의가 있다.
