This study aims to understand the relationships between antecedents (recognition, empowerment, fair rewards, procedural justice(PJ), perceived organizational support(POS) and consequence(turnover intention(TI) of job engagement in a super deluxe hotel's F&B departments. Based on a total of 402 useful samples obtained for the empirical research, this study reviewed reliability and fitness of the research model and verified total 6 hypotheses with through the use of the AMOS statistical program. The hypothesized relationships in the model were tested simultaneously by using a structural equation model(SEM). The proposed model provided an adequate fit to the data, ${\chi}^2=668.894$(p<.001), df=373, CMIN/DF=1.794, GFI=.901, AGFI=.877, NFI=.928, CFI=.967, RMSEA=.044. The model's fit, as indicated by these indexes, was deemed satisfactory, and thus provided a good basis for testing the hypothesized paths. The results show that recognition, empowerment, fair rewards, PJ, and POS had a positive significant influence on job engagement. In addition, job engagement had a negative significant influence on TI. Through this it was confirmed that an optimized organization(working) environment reduced employees' turnover intention by increasing their job engagement level. Therefore, it is suggested that F&B departments at super deluxe hotels design various internal marketing programs from the perspective of efficient human resource management. Implications and limitations, as well as future research directions are also discussed.

Recently, financial companies are promoting chatbot services in line with the reduction of branches and the expansion of non-face-to-face services. However, it is difficult to expand the chatbot services at once in the presence of technical limitations and constraints of internal and external environment. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the various situations of chatbot service to preemptively identify problems that can occur in stages and seek solutions. This study conducted interviews with 12 field practitioners and researchers to examine the intentions and behaviors of financial chatbot service users and interpreted them using TPB. The study revealed the characteristics of 'feelings and attitudes' such as convenience or inconvenience from the chatbot experience, 'subjective norms' such as herd behavior or the yearning for empathy of others, and 'behavioral control' according to the recognition of difficulty or convenience of chatbot use process. This study shows that this characteristic can affect the intention and actual behavior of users to use chatbot service continuously. In the future research, it is necessary to empirically study specific intentions and influence factors for actual users.
