  • Currently, Korean museums use gamification in addition to various viewing methods, such as video and VR/AR. However, museums using museum gamification are still progressing to a special program level. The purpose of this paper is to make the contents of the museum easy to understand and to give the viewers fun. This paper goes beyond the existing museum gamification and proposes a museum story gamification that combines story elements with gamification. This proposal system collects information from each museum in cooperation with museums, art galleries, and exhibition halls and proceeds with related story games. Museum Story Gamification provides related stories according to the theme of the museum and allows viewers to select their own stories. Also, based on the story, you can directly select the difficulty level that suits you and play a personalized game. Unlike the general museum program, the methodology proposed in this paper allows visitors to experience the museum with various story contents. In addition, it will contribute to the development and implementation of programs with gamification in other tourism fields as well as museums.

  • The objective of this study is to introduce the concepts and theories of conditional heteroscedastic volatility models and the news impact curves and apply them to the Korea inbound tourism market. Three volatility models were introduced and used to estimate the conditional volatility of monthly arrivals of inbound tourists into Korea and news impact curves according to the three models. Results of this study are as follows. As the proportion of American tourists occupied a large amount of Korea inbound tourism market, the markets' forecasting is very important. The news impact curves which used EGARCH model (1,1) and TGARCH model(1,1), with data on these tourists to Korea showed an asymmetry effect of volatility. It was common that bad news means that it was estimated more sensitively than good news. From these results, we will notice that American tourists who visited Korea only for tourism are affected by good news. The result suggests that the Korea government and tourism industry should pay more attention to changes in the tourism environment following bad news because conditional volatility increases more when a negative shock occurs than when a positive shock occurs.

  • This study is to analyze the structure of the networks of tourism marketing on Twitter, identifying the most prominent users, the flow of information about tourism marketing, and the interaction between the users posting tweets. This study employs NodeXL pro as a visualization software package for social network analysis. The number of vertices or nodes is 171, and the number of the unique edges or links is 128, but there are 101 edges with duplicates, so the total links are 229, which means that there are fewer Twitter accounts in the social network on tourism marketing, but they have a few close relationships by sharing information. The research can map the social network of communicators of tourism marketing using Twitter data. The network has a complicated pattern, including one independent network and some connected networks. Some mediators connect each network and can control the information flow of tourism marketing. More communicators are getting the information than the ones providing it, which means that there is likely to be the dependence of information among communicators that can cause an obstacle and distortion of the information flow system, especially in the independent network.

  • The number of tourists visiting Nepal has shown rapid growth in recent years, and Nepal is expecting more tourist arrivals in the future. This paper, thus, attempts to analyze the tourist arrivals in Nepal and predict the number of visitors until 2025. This paper has examined the international tourist arrival trend in Nepal using the Gompertz and Logistic growth model. The international tourist arrival data from 1991 to 2018 is used to investigate international tourist arrival trends. The result of the analysis found that the Gompertz model performs a better fit than the Logistic model. The study further forecast the expected tourist arrival below one million (844,319) by 2025. Nevertheless, the government of Nepal has the goal of two million tourists in a year. The present study also discusses system dynamics scenarios for the two million potential visitors within a year. Scenario analysis shows that proper advertisement and positive word-of-mouth will be key factors in achieving a higher number of tourists. The current study could fill the gap of theoretical and empirical forecasting of tourist arrivals in the Nepalese tourism industry. Also, the study findings would be beneficial for government officers, planners and investors, and policy-makers in the Nepalese tourism industry.

  • Since COVID-19, many foreign tourists have visited Korea for medical tourism. When statistical data were checked from 2022, after COVID-19, the number of foreign patients visiting Korea for two years was 24.8 million, an increase of 70.1% from 2020. It was confirmed that it has achieved a 50% level compared to 2019 (Statistics Office, 2023). Therefore, to create a development plan by linking medical tourism and wellness tourism, the purpose of this study is to find the link between medical tourism and wellness tourism as big data and present a development plan. In this research method, medical tourism, and wellness tourism for two years from 2022 to 2023 from the post-COVID period as big data are set as central keywords to compare text data to find common points. When analyzing wellness tourism and medical tourism, it was confirmed that most wellness tourism had a greater frequency than medical tourism. This confirmed that wellness tourism occupies a larger pie than medical tourism. As a result, when checking the word frequency, it was confirmed that wellness tourism and medical tourism share a lot as complex tourism products, and when checking 2-gram, to attract many medical tourists, it is necessary to combine medical tourism clusters and wellness tourism according to each other's characteristics among local governments.

  • 본 논문에서는 21세기 신성장 동력산업으로 세계적인 관심을 받고 있는 의료관광에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다. 의료와 관광이 협조적인 구도하에서 시너지 효과를 가져오게 되는 의료관광은 2009년을 원년으로 도약하기 시작하여 2012년 현재 괄목한 성장을 보이며 성장하고 있다. 본고에서는 성장하는 의료관광시장을 조망해보고 향후 지속적인 발전과 글로벌 한국의료의 성장을 위해 발전적 제언을 하고자 한다. 이를 위해서한국의 5대 대형병원의 의료관광객 유치에 대해 살펴보고 이를 근거로 의료비의 투명한 관리와 적극적인 서비스를 위한 홈페이지 구축, 의료업계와 관광업계의 협력구도제안 및 의료커뮤니케이션의 활성화를 제안한다. 즉 질병위주의 치유목적적 의료관광객의 정확한 의사소통을 위한 전문의료 통역사의 양성과 의료관광의 원할한 진행과 서비스를 위한 국제의료코디네이터양성의 이중 채널 커뮤니케이션이 필요하다. 또한 의료계에 비해 상대적으로 열악한 관광업계의 인프라 구축을 위한 창의적인 노력이 필요함을 지적하였다.

  • 고부가가치사업인 헬스케어 산업은 인구의 고령화, 융·복합 의료기술의 발달로 지속적인 성장세를 보이고 있다. 특히 의료관광 산업은 의료선진국들이 정책적으로 추진하고 있으며, 한국도 외국인환자 유치 사업을 적극적으로 지원하고 있다. 다만 한국 의료통역사 정책에 대한 선행연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구는 외국인환자를 위한 의료통역사 정책의 현황과 문제점을 분석하고, 과제를 제시하고 있다. 문제점은 정책 컨트롤 타워의 미흡과 지방자치단체와의 연계 부족, 의료통역사의 전문성 결여, 의료통역 서비스의 품질 저하, 의료통역사의 열악한 처우 등이다. 개선방안으로써 정책 컨트롤 타워의 구축과 지방자치단체와의 연계 강화, 의료통역사 자격사 제도 전환과 의료통역능력검정시험 응시언어의 다양화, 의료통역 서비스의 품질 향상과 의료통역사 연수 과정의 내실화, 의료통역사의 채용 우대와 간호인력의 활용 및 다문화 의료인력의 양성이 제시된다. 본 연구가 의료관광 산업 발전에 이바지하기를 기대한다.

  • Tourism products involve the transfer of money that is flowing to countries with partners or borders, which do not possess any relations surrounding their business environment. Suitable platforms must be generated by the tourism industry, which are beneficial to users when their demands are satisfied based on financial, technology, knowledge, and industry matters. Intermediaries are applied to alleviate different problems that are related to the non-fulfilment of contracts of existing users and service providers who are offering their services and represent a reliable third party. However, it is significant that intermediaries must be reliable when charges are incurred for any possible commission. Cryptocurrencies rely on blockchain technology to provide smoothness in money interchange without the need for reliable third parties. This interchange allows an increasing number of different new forms, which are related to different customer-to-customer transactions. The study attempts to provide an appropriate answer to the main research question, which is: 'Will the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies bring new types of customer-to-customer markets from a technological, organizational, and environmental perspective?'.
