The TFT-LCD industry has shown dramatic growth by making technological advances and satisfying consumer needs. It now stands at the heart of the display industry. However, the TFT-LCD market is maturing and is unlikely to sustain the fast pace of growth in years to come. There has been an oversupply in the LCD sector entering 2008 due to capacity expansion aimed at fueling growth coupled with softening demand amid the global economic slowdown and recent financial turmoil. The LCD industry has successfully coped with oversupply on several occasions. Each time, LCD makers faced up to the challenge and responded with a pioneering spirit. They continued to grow by turning crisis into opportunity. LG Display aims to create new markets by developing products based on innovative technology and providing more attractive products through a value-added product planning that incorporates consumer needs. Through a continuous cost innovation targeted at stimulating demand by making products more economical to consumers, we will be at the forefront of overcoming the current oversupply and sustaining robust growth for the TFT-LCD industry. Depending on our management of the situation, the current oversupply could prove to be an opportunity to create even bigger markets for the future.

In 1994 Korea government began to develop the healthcare industry, since then the government has tried to create opportunities to promote the industry through various political efforts and policies. The biggest achievement was attracting foreign patients from 2009 to 2016 with a cumulative 1.56 million and total revenue of 3 trillion won. But Korea still loses the opportunity to become a global leader in the health care industry due to regulations and various ideological disputes. Accordingly, it is necessary to facilitate policy understanding and present a practical road map so that Korea's healthcare industry become a new growth engine that will lead the trend of global market in the future. It also suggests a national economic development paradigm, the health economy as health and economic value are rotated through a shift in view of health care. At this point, 20 years after the beginning of the healthcare industry development, it is necessary to evaluate the related policies and discuss effective future directions. In this sense, the purpose of this study is to examine the policies and limitations of the healthcare industry by each government division, and based on it, to propose political tasks for the future.

In this paper, we aim to examine the recent state of the streaming industry in the U.S., and its future prospects as the most important force shaping the media landscape across the globe. First, we examine the launch of Disney's streaming services in late 2019 that heralded the start of the so-called streaming war to win subscribers and how the outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020 helped its rapid growth. Then, we look at the crisis of the streaming industry in 2022, as subscriber growth slowed down for the first time and losses increased, and how this led to the growing emphasis on profitability. We also explore the subsequent attempts by streaming companies to cut costs and create more revenue, with the result that they were retreating from the previous strategy to grow their platforms at all costs. From this, we highlight that, while the future course of the streaming industry is not yet determined, the recent upheavals certainly made it more cost-conscious and conservative and less consumer-friendly.

The purpose of this study was to develop a long-term future scenario model of the brain implant industry that can be used for the industrial policy and corporate strategy. There are many discussions about the possibility of the brain science industry as a future core industry, but researches on specific industrial development policies and corporate strategy fields are very lacking. This is because this field has not yet accumulated the necessary information to create industrial growth policies or corporate strategies. In order to overcome these limitations, this study developed future scenarios using the system dynamics model for the brain implant industry and proposed a strategy suitable for each scenario. This study can be used as the main data for the policy development of the brain science industry and the strategy development in individual companies. There is a need to study the signal that can identify the future scenario of global market development in the future.

Purpose: With a rapid advance of communication technology, distributional systems of sport contents continue to show improvements. In particular, a traditional framework in creating sport cartoon has been influenced by the environment of the communication industry. Despite the development of distributional systems, the current sport cartoon industry still lacks in advancement. To this day, various research about sport contents have been conducted; yet, not many studies of the interaction between sport cartoons and communication technology have been done. In this respect, this study is to review the distributional environment of the sport cartoon industry and provide distributional strategies for developing sport cartoon industry. Research design, data, and methodology: In addition to in-depth interviews with five practitioners in sport cartoon industry, the study employed case study methodology. Interview data were analyzed by qualitative content analysis. Results: With new environments allowing anyone allowing to create and share webtoons, various genres including sports webtoons appear, and this became amotive to the growth of sports webtoons. Today, sports comics acted as a sports advertisement platform which not only created additional profit but also became an opportunity as a marketing method. On the contrary, the formal attributes of webtoons cause hardship in consistently creating sports webtoons. Hence, it is needed that supporting policies need to be established to nurture sport webtoon expertise. For example, Korea Creative Content Agency allows future webtoon authors to have an opportunity to be educated and equipped in producing creative sport webtoon contents. Moreover, revenue systems should be developed for motivating webtoon authors to involve in sport contents in their works. Conclusions: In order to promote the sports cartoon industry based on the findings, it is first necessary to create sports comics that reflect the formal characteristics of webtoons and the changing consumer environment. Second, it is important to acknowledge the industrial value of sports comics and it is necessary to promote policies regarding sports webtoon production and distribution from a national level. Third, by diversifying profits through OSMU and sports advertisements, it is possible to enhance the work environment and the treatment of authors. Implications and future directions were discussed.

The goal of the information system in tourism, like that of general information systems, is to create users' information needs so that the users continuously revisit the information system and retrieve the information on a regular basis. However, unlike any other information systems, the primary objective of the tourism information system is to attract tourists to the tourist sites rather than to create the users' needs for their future revisits to the information system. The tourism information system is therefore more closely related to tourists' overall tourism destination image towards the tourism destination. In this respect, the evaluation of the tourism information system should be based on tourists' overall tourism destination image towards the sites. This study examines how tourists' overall tourism destination image towards the sites affect the evaluation of the tourism information system. Specifically, I employ the tourism information system provided by Sokcho and Delone and Mclean(2003)'s the Information System Success Model in order to investigate this research question.

This paper explores the convergence process by focusing on the massively multiplayer online game(MMOG) industry and the online broadcasting industry in South Korea. In doing so, the paper seeks to establish the concept of Hidden catalysts for the integration process between the two industries and explore the roles of the Hidden catalysts in triggering the industry's transition. Further, the modified multi-level socio-technical model we applied in our research allows us both to understand each industry's development towards convergence in various dimensions and also to focus on the activities of the Hidden catalysts. In assessing the role of Hidden catalysts in industry convergence, we found that Hidden catalysts depend on two essential features: first, appropriate technology leading to the new industry dominance; and second, managerial capabilities to deal with conflicts among other new interest groups, to harmonise with government initiatives for industry development and to create new value in the integrated market to please the demand of mixed customers.
