This study investigated foreign consumers' perceived brand image of Korean food by applying the factor analysis research method. Questionnaires were distributed to 600 foreigners visiting Korea, from September 1 to 21, 2008. A total of 416 questionnaires were returned, of which 70 unusable questionnaires were excluded and 346 were used in the final analysis. SPSS 12.0 was employed for the statistical analysis. According to the factor analysis results, the brand image of Korean food were classified into four factors, 'premium concerns', 'novelty concerns', 'health concerns', and 'popularity concerns', where 'health concerns' had the highest mean score among the factors. The results also showed that the respondents perceived Korean food as 'healthy' and 'organic', but not as 'feminine' or 'high-grade', particularly respondents who were Japanese and Chinese. Additionally, the respondents were divided into two groups by degree of preference for Korean food. No significant differences existed between the two groups except for the attribute 'family-oriented'. Overall, the results suggested that the representative brand image of Korean food is 'healthy', which also corresponds with recent food consumption trends and Korean food characteristics.

Purpose - Although Korean food export has been increasing, they will stagnate without markets. This study considers Korean halal food exports to Indonesia and Malaysia, which are two of the largest halal food markets. Given the context, this study aims to predict Indonesian and Malaysian consumers' purchase intention toward Korean halal food through their acceptance of and feeling toward Korea's image. Design/methodology - This study surveyed Indonesian and Malaysian consumers who purchased Korean halal food in the past year. The survey data were analyzed using the statistical package for the social sciences 21.0 and the analysis of moment structures 21.0. Findings - The analysis reveals that the feeling toward Korea's image and its food image significantly impacted attitudes and subjective norms, while the acceptance of Korea's image significantly impacted only subjective norms. Attitude showed no significant effect on purchase intention, whereas subjective norms exhibited a significant effect on purchase intention. The image feeling had a greater impact on attitudes in Indonesia than those in Malaysia, whereas image acceptance showed a greater influence on subjective norms in Malaysia than those in Indonesia. Originality/value - This study considers the difference between Indonesian and Malaysian consumers in relation to their acceptance of and feeling toward Korea's image and its halal food image. These findings on Korea's image can play a key role in establishing Korea's food export strategy and have strategic implications on Korean companies aiming to enter the halal food market or increase their market share.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between body image and BMI with satisfaction of own body image, snack intake practices, food intake practices and weight control practices of 226 female college students in Jeonbuk province using questionnaire. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The average height, weight and BMI was 162.08cm, 52.02kg and 19.78, respectively. The average ideal body weight of the subjects was 48.92kg. Ninety percent of the subjects was dissatisfied with their body image. The degree of dissatisfaction was higher in the group who recognized themselves as fat. Most of subjects wanted to lose weight, but as the group having a recognition of thin body image significantly wanted to gain weight (p<0.001). 2. The subjects preferred fruits and juices for snack. The more subjects recognized themselves as fat, the more they restricted snack intake (p<0.05). 3. The rate of skipping meal tends to increase. The subjects did not intake balanced meals and skipped breakfast most (20.7%). The number of food groups taken at breakfast, lunch and dinner was 1.84, 2.25 and 2.55, respectively and the most variable food groups were taken at dinner(p<0.001). Dairy food group intake was low. The duration of meal time was longer in the underweight group by BMI regardless of body image recognition (p<0.05). 4. The weight controlling method was concentrated mostly on decreasing food intake. The more subjects recognized themselves as fat, the more they tried to control weight (p<0.001). Even though 59.5% of the subjects with no weight control experience had no future weight control plans, 50% of the group who recognized themselves as normal or fat did not want to control weight in the future (p<0.01). These results suggest that nutrition education programs and correction programs of food behaviors and weight control should start from focusing on the accurate recognition of body image for college female students.

This study was performed to investigate the dietary habits, body satisfaction and nutritional knowledge according to body image of middle school girl students (n = 284). The subjects were classified as lean, normal and fat groups according to body image. The weight, body mass index (BMI) and the score of body image were significantly higher in the students who recognized their body image as 'fat'. The satisfaction of present body image was significantly lower in students who recognized their body image as 'lean'. The interest in weight control and experience of weight control were significantly higher in students who recognized their body image as 'fat'. The necessity of nutrition education was higher in all groups (lean 67.2%, normal 59.0% and fat 52.8%). The products used to feel sweetened were sweetened ice (68.7%), processed milk (68.3%), confectionery (62.3%), carbonated beverage (55.3%), fermented milk (38.0%) and none (6.0%). The frequency of consumption of fruit juices and fried food was significantly higher in 'normal' compared to 'fat'. There was no significant difference in the frequency of consumption of snack and nutritional knowledge among the three groups. In the multiple regression analysis, the score of body image was negatively associated with the frequency of snack consumption in the 'lean'. The score of body image was positively associated with identification of nutrition labels and an interest in weight control but was negatively associated with satisfaction of present body image in the 'fat'. Based on these results, we conclude that, the middle school girl students need correct recognition of body image and continuous and practical nutrition education in order to maintain healthy dietary habits.
