As the Internet rapidly emerges as a speedy and cost-effective way of purchasing goods from overseas websites, the number of disputes arising out of overseas direct purchases also increases. In such situations, a disgruntled consumer might be left without an effective remedy. Providing an alternative approach to redress such grievances might assist in resolving such disputes and in increasing consumer confidence in e-commerce. Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) will allow consumers to solve their disputes without going to court, in a quick, low-cost, and simple way. It also helps to eliminate complex jurisdictional and choice-of-law problems. On the other hand, it has many problems such as having inadequate confidentiality and security, not being able to meet the "writing" requirement for arbitration of disputes, having difficulty in enforcing online arbitration agreements, having difficulties in enforcing online decisions and so on. This article investigates relationship online disputes and ODR and suggests ways that ODR can work best in resolving disputes arising out of overseas direct purchases. To expand the ODR system in online disputes, it is very important for domestic consumers to recognize the concept and usefulness of the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and ODR systems. The Korean government must also help consumers recognize the ADR mechanisms of dispute resolution by public campaign advertisement of ADR systems. Further education of dispute resolution in higher educational institutions is also required as well as assisting the KCAB with funds and the establishment of ADR Law.

Purpose: As consumers have difficulty in brand choice due to excessive information, using brand popularity as an advertising cue (e.g., Sales No. 1, Hit Product) has been getting more attention as an effective curation strategy for decreasing consumers' cognitive efforts. Accordingly, recent studies empirically demonstrate that consumers tend to prefer and choose a brand with a popularity cue and offer a useful information regarding how to use a popularity cue in marketing communication. However, extant research has mainly focused on investigating the impact of "brand popularity in a domestic market" on consumer behaviors. Thus, little is known about the effect of "brand popularity in a foreign market" on local consumers' decision-making process. Given that domestic consumers tend to purchase imported products from overseas countries, it can be meaningful information for global companies. Therefore, this research derives and tests the five hypotheses to examine how local consumers respond to brand popularity in a foreign market as an advertising cue. Specifically, it tests the three hypotheses regarding the direct and indirect effects of brand popularity in a foreign market on risk perception and purchase intention. Then, it tests two additional hypotheses about moderating effects of psychic distance on the relationship between brand popularity and risk perception as well as on the relationship between brand popularity and purchase intention. Seventy participants are exposed to an advertisement for an Indian cosmetic brand using a popularity cue in Indian market and answer the questions about brand evaluation. For data analysis, regression analysis is employed. The findings of this research show that perceived brand popularity lowers local consumers' perceived risk with a foreign brand. However, perceived brand popularity does not have a direct impact on purchase intention while it has an indirect effect through perceived risk. Meanwhile, psychic distance moderates the effect of perceived brand popularity on perceived risk level, but it has no impact on the relationship between brand popularity and purchase intention. This research is one of the first studies that demonstrate the positive impact of brand popularity in a foreign market on a local consumer's purchase decision, and it shows the effect can be moderated by psychic distance.

요즘 신문 광고를 보면 자주 볼 수 있는 광고 형식이 있다. 그것은 00 마케팅 대상, 00 신문 선정 올해의 최고 히트 제품, 스포츠 신문 선정 올해의 10대 제품, 00 협회 컨설팅 선정 고객 만족도 최우수 제품, 00부 선정 올해의 벤처 기업 등 정부나 언론 기관, 그리고 비영리 성격의 제 3 기관에서의 수상 사실을 광고 소재로 활용하는 수상(award winning) 광고이다. 그 동안 선행 연구에서는 브랜드, 가격, 제품 외관, 제조회사 정보, 보증 등을 품질을 나타내는 단서로서 주목해 왔으나 제 3 기관의 추천의 효과에 대해서는 연구가 비교적 적은 편이다. 이번 연구는 기존 연구에서 다루지 않았던 제 3 기관의 추천을 수상 맥락(award context)에서 확인해 봄으로써 제 3 기관 추천과 관련된 연구 범위를 다양화했다는데 의의를 둘 수 있다. 지금까지 소비자 관점에서 제 3 기관의 추천 효과를 조절하는 변수들에 대한 연구들은 진행되었으나 기업 관점에서 마케팅 변수들의 조절 효과를 검토한 연구는 없다고 판단하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 제 3 기관의 수상 정보가 주는 효과를 이론적 범주에서 설명하고, 실험을 통해 이러한 과정에서 마케팅 변수들의 조절 효과를 확인하였다. 연구 결과 제 3 기관의 수상 정보는 소비자들의 제품 구입 의도를 높이는데 긍정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났고 제품 타입, 판매 채널과 같은 마케팅 변수들이 이 과정을 조절하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 외재적 단서 중 하나인 지각된 가격은 제품 타입에 따라 역할이 상이했는데 경험재의 경우에는 제 3 기관의 수상 정보와 독립적으로 구매 의도에 영향을 주었고 탐색재의 경우에는 소비자 구매 의도에 큰 영향을 주지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이번 연구 결과로부터 마케팅 실무에 활용할 수 있는 몇 가지 시사점들을 추론해 보면 가격이 비교적 고가이고 고객과의 직접 접촉을 통해 판매가 가능하며 소비자들이 내재적 단서를 통해 품질을 평가하기 어려운 경험재의 경우 제 3 기관의 수상 형태의 추천 효과가 극대화될 수 있는 조건이라고 말할 수 있다.

현대 시장의 경향은 '기업은 제품을 팔고 소비자는 브랜드를 산다'라는 브랜드 전략을 나타내고 있다. 브랜드는 소비자의 요구와 경험을 반영하고 연출하는 제품과 소비자를 연결시키는 매개체로 작용한다. 성공적인 브랜드는 경험적인 미학적 전략을 지향하게 되었고, 소비자는 브랜드를 색다른 경험으로 인식하고 하나의 고정된 관념(인식)으로 떠올리게 된다. 많은 기업들은 막대한 홍보와 광고비용을 절감하는 최소의 투자비용으로 최대의 효과를 얻고자 한다. 구매시점에서 소비자와의 직접적 대면을 통해 제품 브랜드에 대한 인상을 각인시키고, 구매를 유도하는 기능을 하며 그 중요성이 날로 커지고 있다. 따라서 브랜드 이미지의 시각표현은 브랜드와 밀접하게 연결되어 소비자의 마음에 고정된 하나의 인상을 형성할 수 있어야 한다. 일단 긍정적인 인상으로 자리잡은 브랜드는 소비자의 기억으로 인출되어 별다른 정보 없이 브랜드만으로 구매에 이를 수 있게 한다. 이를 위한 시각적 표현의 해결은 브랜드 이미지의 핵심적 요소로서 브랜드의 로고 및 마크를 중심으로 한 시각화이며, 이를 뒷받침하는 커뮤니케이션 요인이라 하겠다. 이는 제품과 관련이 깊은 방향으로서의 디자인적 방향성을 가지게 될 뿐 아니라 브랜드의 언어적 특성과 그 연상성에 기반을 둔 시각 언어적인 의미 전이의 방법들로 문제해결을 위한 방법을 제시해 줄 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시장경제를 형성하는 스포츠용품의 브랜드 이미지분석과 소비자 제품구매와의 관계를 이론 적 고찰하여 이를 효과적이고 일관성 있는 이미지를 형성하는 방향을 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다.

This paper presents exploratory research on consumer awareness and attitudesabout organic food, for which consumer demand continues to increase the paper also assesses consumers' organic food distribution channel preferences. By conducting a literature review, a case study has been carried out in order to glean customer behavior, market condition and typesof distribution channels, and development of specialty stores for organic foods. The early research indicates that consumer awareness and customer attitudes toward organic food are mostly positive however, organic food's high price, as well as a lack of organic food stores, cause a negative effect on consumers' purchase intention. Secondly, the U.S. organic food retail channel consists of such mainstream supermarket/grocery stores and leading natural and organic food supermarket chains as Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Sunflower Farmers Market. For the current retail distribution of organic food in Korea, off-line stores are composed of direct management stores and franchise chains. Most of the organic food retail distribution operates through the Internet shopping mall, and are commonly located at retail distribution centers as multi-channel, shop-in-shop stores. Moreover, unlike in the U.S., association and consumers' cooperatives (Co-Ops), and such other member-direct retail stores as Hansallim, iCOOP, Nature Dream,and online shopping malls, are all active in Korea. Thirdly, as a result of an analysis of the present state of the organic food retail channel, as well as building a case for organic food specialty stores, the distinctive featuresand rapid growth of such unique organic food stores as Whole Foods Market, or Trader Joe's successful downsizing strategies, as well as Sunflower Farmers Market low-price approach, show steady industry growth. Moreover, as a result of a case studyof such domestic representative organic food specialty stores as "Olga" and "Chorokmaeul," a similar management style to the United States' "Whole Foods Market" and "Trader Joe's," respectively, can be seen. Similar to the U.S. market, Korean organic food markets should also implement active retail distribution opportunities, allowing consumers to select from various diverse and differentiated choices. In order to accomplish this goal, it is necessary to prepare such measures as sustaining reasonable prices, securing various suppliers for unique products,and improving consumer trust through advertisement strategies that are suitable for each company's branding processes.
