Going shopping would be a very reasoned and well-planned activity, however, at the same time, it would not. People may go shopping just for fun and as their leisure. The motivations for going shopping and their experiences cannot be fully explained with the economic utility or the information-processing model. Thus, this study explored the hedonic aspect of the experiences of shopping as an alternative explanation to consumers' motivations of shopping and discussed retail advertising and marketing plans. An in-depth interview was conducted to obtain a better understanding about hedonic value, and it was found that hedonic value affects a consumer's shopping experience and that understanding consumers' motivations for shopping and establishing competitive advertising and marketing plans is important in drawing more consumers. Strategic implications for establishing further retail advertising and marketing plans obtained from the findings were also suggested.

본 연구는 '온라인 구매를 이끌어냄에 있어 후각 또는 미각정보의 필요성'을 개인 성향과 쇼핑몰 신뢰 관점에서 규명하고자 하였다. 이에, 사용자가 후각 및 미각정보의 제시 여부에 따라 제품 품질 및 구매의도에 직접 영향을 받을 것이라고 하는 가설 1과 개인 성향 및 쇼핑몰의 신뢰수준을 조절변수로 영향 정도가 달라질 것이라는 가설 2와 3을 포함한 연구 모형을 개발하였다. 첫째, 후각 및 미각정보를 제시한 경우가 제시하지 않은 경우보다 제품에 대한 지각된 품질 및 구매의도가 더 크게 나타났다. 이는 온라인 구매를 유도함에 있어 이 두 정보유형을 적용할 수 있음이 밝혀졌다. 둘째, 후각에 대한 개인 성향은 조절변수로서 가능하나 미각에 대한 개인성향은 그렇지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 단, 미각에 대한 개인성향이 높은 집단의 경우 정보 제시 후 반응의 폭이 크게 증가한 것은 후각정보와 동일한 결과를 보였다. 이에 두 정보의 필요성을 지니고 있는 새로운 사용자 유형을 제시할 수 있었다. 마지막으로, 신뢰도가 낮은 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서 후각 및 미각정보의 제시는 신뢰감을 유도함으로써 품질 및 구매의도에 대한 증가폭이 커진다는 것을 밝혀냈다.

In case of groceries, they usually buy things for cash, and in case of one price labeled groceries they usually buy things at a supermarket. Second, according to the way of paying price, the shopping scope of some electric appliances is broader in case of purchase for cach than in case of purchase on credit. Third, the shopping scope and information seeking behavior classified by the socioeconomic variables according to the income, age and education.

It seems high time to increase productivity by adopting e-business to overcome challenges posed by both external factors including the appreciation of Korean won, oil hikes and fierce global competition and domestic issues represented by disparities between large corporations and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), Seoul metropolitan and local cities, and export and domestic demand all of which weaken future growth engines in the Korean economy. The demands of the globalization era are for innovative changes in businessprocess and industrial structure aiming for creating new values. To this end, e-business is expected to play a core role in the sophistication of the Korean economy through new values and innovation. In order to examine business performance in e-business-adopting industries, this study analyzed the home shopping industry by closely looking into the financial ratios including the ratio of net profit to sales, the ratio of operation income to sales, the ratio of gross cost to sales cost, the ratio of gross cost to selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense, and return of investment (ROI). This study, for best outcome, referred to corporate financial statements as a main resource to calculate financial ratios by utilizing Data Analysis, Retrieval and Transfer System (DART) of the Financial Supervisory Service, one of the Korea's financial supervisory authorities. First of all, the result of the trend analysis on the ratio of net profit to sales is as following. CJ Home Shopping has registered a remarkable increase in its ratio of net profit rate to sales since 2002 while its competitors find it hard to catch up with CJ's stunning performances. This is partly due to the efficient management compared to CJ's value of capital. Such significance, if the current trend continues, will make the front-runner assume the largest market share. On the other hand, GS Home Shopping, despite its best organized system and largest value of capital among others, lacks efficiency in management. Second of all, the result of the trend analysis on the ratio of operation income to sales is as following. Both CJ Home Shopping and GS Home Shopping have, until 2004, recorded similar growth trend. However, while CJ Home Shopping's operating income continued to increase in 2005, GS Home Shopping observed its operating income declining which resulted in the increasing income gap with CJ Home Shopping. While CJ Home Shopping with the largest market share in home shopping industryis engaged in aggressive marketing, GS Home Shopping due to its stability-driven management strategies falls behind CJ again in the ratio of operation income to sales in spite of its favorable management environment including its large capital. Companies in the Group B were established in the same year of 2001. NS Home Shopping was the first in the Group B to shift its loss to profit. Woori Home Shopping has continued to post operating loss for three consecutive years and finally was sold to Lotte Group in 2007, but since then, has registered a continuing increase in net income on sales. Third of all, the result of the trend analysis on the ratio of gross cost to sales cost is as following. Since home shopping falls into sales business, its cost of sales is much lower than that of other types of business such as manufacturing industry. Since 2002 in gross costs including cost of sales, SG&A expense, and non-operating expense, cost of sales turned out to have remarkably decreased. Group B has also posted a notable decline in the same sector since 2002. Fourth of all, the result of the trend analysis on the ratio of gross cost to SG&A expense is as following. Due to its unique characteristics, the home shopping industry usually posts ahigh ratio of SG&A expense. However, more than 80% of SG&A expense means the result of lax management and at the same time, a sharp lower net income on sales than other industries. Last but not least, the result of the trend analysis on ROI is as following. As for CJ Home Shopping, the curve of ROI looks similar to that of its investment on fixed assets. As it turned out, the company's ratio of fixed assets to operating income skyrocketed in 2004 and 2005. As far as GS Home Shopping is concerned, its fixed assets are not as much as that of CJ Home Shopping. Consequently, competition in the home shopping industry, at the moment, is among CJ, GS, Hyundai, NS and Woori Home Shoppings, and all of them need to more thoroughly manage their costs. In order for the late-comers of Group B and other home shopping companies to advance further, the current lax management should be reformed particularly on their SG&A expense sector. Provided that the total sales volume in the Internet shopping sector is projected to grow over 20 trillion won by the year 2010, it is concluded that all the participants in the home shopping industry should put strategies on efficient management on costs and expenses as their top priority rather than increase revenues, if they hope to grow even further after 2007.

전자상거래는 인터넷상에서 직접적인 접속을 통해 소비자들이 필요 정보를 검색하고 제품이나 서비스를 구매하는 것을 가능케 한다. 인터넷상의 구매 행위는 실질적인 경험은 아니지만 그림이나 제품 정보 및 광고 등에 근거하여 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 이란의 전자상거래 시장을 활성화하기 위해, 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서의 젊은 성인층의 구매 행태를 분석하였다. 즉, 인터넷 쇼핑 동기유발과 인터넷 쇼핑몰 선택에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 조사하였으며, 이러한 요인들과 성별, 직업, 연령, 교육정도와 같은 다른 요인들 사이의 상관관계를 밝히기 위해 통계적 가설검증을 수행하였다. 이 결과, 인터넷 쇼핑몰 선택 요인 중의 하나인 '풍부한 제품 정보' 요인에는 남녀 성별 차이가 존재한다는 것과, 쇼핑 동기 유발 요인 중의 하나인 '제품 비교 기능' 요인에도 남녀 차이가 존재한다는 것이 드러났다. 또한, '월 평균 구매 빈도' 요인은 학생과 비학생 간에 차이가 존재하였다. 그리고 일반적으로 이란 젊은 성인층에서는 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서의 상품의 품질을 신뢰하지 않으며 인터넷 쇼핑몰의 안전성에도 만족하지 못하고 있다는 것을 밝혀냈다.
