Generation MZ has emerged as a significant consumer segment and trendsetter in the fashion market of South Korea. Fashion designer brands have become popular among this generation by offering a range of fashion content on social network services (SNS) based on fresh and trendy designs. Despite the growing market share of fashion designer brands in the industry, previous research has mainly focused on brand personality in line with the characteristics of traditional fashion brands. Therefore, this study aims to derive brand personality and SNS characteristics of fashion designer brands based on previous research and investigate the influence of these factors on brand preference and behavioral intention. Moreover, it examines how this influencing mechanism fluctuates based on the consumer type (i.e., innovative type vs. price-sensitive type). Based on an online survey of 256 Korean adults with experience in fashion designer brands, this study identified the influencing mechanisms on purchase intention and word-of-mouth intention. This study contributes to empirical investigations of consumer brand preference and behavior intention in fashion designer brands through the brand equity model. It also offers insight into developing a segmented brand strategy by considering the variations in the influence mechanism of behavioral intention across different consumer types.

White-eyed blowout fractures with extraocular muscle (EOM) entrapment necessitate emergency surgical intervention. However, even after surgery, diplopia or EOM motion limitations may persist due to the incomplete reduction of soft tissue herniation caused by inadequate dissection or unresolved muscle strangulation. In this report, we present a case of postoperative EOM movement limitation in a 5-year-old girl who experienced recurrent restriction in the upward gaze of her right eye 14 days after surgery. Instead of revision surgery, the patient was treated with targeted EOM exercises focusing on the inferior rectus muscle and inferior oblique muscle. The patient was instructed to slowly move her pupils from the central point to the upper and outer sides, then in a straight line from the central point to the lower and inner sides before returning to the center point. On the 28th postoperative day, 2 weeks after initiating the exercises, the patient's EOM motion fully recovered. This case highlights the effectiveness of EOM exercises as a non-surgical treatment approach for improving recurrent EOM movement limitations in the absence of soft tissue herniation following surgical management of blowout fractures in children.
