The Korean mobile telecommunication service market is faced with a tremendous competitive period, in which the market is entering into the maturity stage with launching of the 3rd generation service and with introduction of mobile number portability. In general, it is more important to sustain the old customers than to attracting new customers, as the life cycle of an industry is entering the maturity stage in which the growth rate of new customers is decreasing gradually or becoming stagnant. Thus, mobile telecommunication business has to seek a way to maintain the existing customers instead of promoting new customers. So this study investigates whether the service quality of mobile telecommunication could have effects on the switching barrier of the industry. In order to test the hypothesis on the effects of service quality of mobile telecommunication in Korea on switching barrier, this study collected the questionnaire response data of students including middle and high school students and undergraduates, who are regarded as the major customers in that mobile telecommunication industry.

This research dealt with the psychological structure where customers get attached to mobile telecommunication service. As a result, first, product group innovativeness had a meaningful influence on the customers' having trust and positive affects in mobile telecommunication service. Second, when the trust of the customers using mobile telecommunication service was high, the affection towards the service was proportionately positive. Third, although the affection of love was strong when the customers highly trusted the mobile telecommunication service he is using, it did not have a meaningful influence on the attachment of relationship. Fourth, when the customers gained a positive affection towards the mobile telecommunication service, the attachment of love and relationship was stronger.

Consumer needs becomes various in a mature mobile telecommunication market, while service differentiation is hard to achieve. Because of the introduction of number portability, switching barrier becomes lower and the competition among telecommunication service providers is getting fierce in order to maintain and obtain customers. Moreover, HSDPA, which is a new telecommunication service, caused the intense marketing activity for the move to the next generation customers. Under these circumstances, brand equity can be a key to a long-term competitive edge for mobile phone service providers. However, there were few researches reporting the mobile telecommunication brand equity, and none of them analyzed if customer equity which particularly is developed at the CDMA market has an effect on HSDPA service. In this study, we identified the determinants of mobile telecommunication brand equity, which is focused on brand image, customer benefit, price, service quality, and marketing activity, and its influence on the HSDPA service subscription behavior. Finally, we suggested the strategic implication of brand management strategies for mobile phone service providers.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of quality and satisfaction of mobile telecommunication service on the quality data sharing for mobile telecommunication service. Based on the theory of reasoned action(TRA), we proposed a research model that (1) service qualities significantly influence the service satisfaction and the attitude towards information sharing, (2) the attitude towards information sharing mediates between service satisfaction and the intention of information sharing, and (3) the intention of information sharing is affected by the service satisfaction and the attitude towards information sharing. Empirical analysis of mobile service users showed that the data quality of mobile communication services had a greater impact on satisfaction than voice quality. The service satisfaction had a positive effect on attitude towards information sharing and the intention of information sharing. Also, the attitude towards information sharing had a positive impact on the intention of information sharing. Based on this empirical study, we proposed a crowdsourcing as an alternative when quality data of mobile telecommunication service should be collected to improve telecommunication policy because by using collective intelligence of the crowdsourcing the government can gather more accurate and diverse data on mobile telecommunication service.

A rapidly increasing demand of voice and data through mobile telecommunication service and the development of technologies related with the service are sufficiently said to make the service become an indispensible communicating means, not just selective one. However, in the other side of the generalizing of mobile telecommunication service, there is said to be a worsening situation of unbalanced benefits due to the problem of information difference between the non. The more advanced mobile telecommunication service proceeds, the more deepens the problem, and it is generally known that the problem cannot be solved by the ability of free market itself as seen in the wired telecommunication market. Therefore, we need to set up a systematic policy of mobile telecommunication service for solving this problem, and also think over whether to include the service within the range of universal service. In this study, we examine the required factors for including the service within the range of universal service, and analyze the validity of the including in the view point of institutional aspects.
