Among all types of Japanese restaurants customers selected sushi bars the most (48.2%), and they considered taste (73.9%), price (34.8%), and service (22.2%) to be very important. When eating at Japanese restaurants, satisfaction differences among sanitation (p<0.05), price (p<0.05), and unique design (p<0.1) each had a significant difference with F values of 3.313, 3.208, and 2,702, respectively. factor analysis of the effect of selection attributes on Japanese restaurant performance revealed three factors; image, service, and food. Their combined satisfaction was 61.41%, and each of these three factors showed a Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ value of 0.744, 0.739, and 0.623 in the reliability analysis, respectively, thus demonstrating the overall level of reliability.

  • The primary goal of this study is to examine the factors that affect how satisfied sexual minorities are with their lives. This study focuses on how sexual minorities perceive social stigma, the social influences involved in its perception, and the effects this perception has. Using stress-coping theory, this study looks at how social stigma, as a perceived stress, affects social support and self-esteem, how the stigma influences the degree to which individuals "come out" in an effort to cope, and the resultant effects of this coping mechanism on life satisfaction. The data used if from a sample of 478 individuals who self identify as gay, lesbian or bisexual. It was collected through an online survey. Using SEM, the quality was evaluated by analyzing the measurement model, and the relationship of the variables included in the theoretical model was verified by analyzing the structural model. The results of this study show that social stigma directly affects the life satisfaction of Korean sexual minorities. It significantly influences the social support they receive(from family and sexual minority peers), and their self-esteem. The degree to which the individual "comes out" is shown to affect life satisfaction as well. In contrast, the mediating effect of heterosexual support is shown to be insignificant. Based on the analyses, practical strategies regarding social stigma, social support, self-esteem, and "coming out" are suggested for sexual minorities. The social stigma should be reduced and society-scaled campaigns promoted in order to improve their level of life satisfaction. In addition, institutional protection should be developed and specialized educational courses on human rights provided which will empower these minorities with self-help mechanisms. Furthermore, issues such as establishing support system and providing a social welfare system for the sexual minority community are discussed.
