The involvement of Korean wave was found to operate as a mechanism by which challenge, skills, focused attention on site might be more organized or more actively experienced. This recognizes that there is clearly a need for making the FIT sites exposed much by any mix of various media. This study showed that challenges and skills influence enjoyment as output factor of flow film site visitors are assumed to participate the roles of film characters, experiencing the places and atmosphere. The degree of visitors' reflections in the film optimizes awareness of flow experiences on the site.

This study aims to examine visitors' usage intention of the mobile AR(Augmented reality) application for tourism in Korea. For this purpose, the study analyzed how three attributes of AR tourguide app such as interactivity, vividness, and novelty have influenced on the tourist in terms of three realms of their flow, their experience (education, entertainment, esthetics, and escapism), and their usage intention for the future. It conducted an online survey from 20 to 30 year-old 291 participants and used a structural equation modeling. Survey findings show that first, novelty has a positive influence on the state of flow in AR application after vividness; Interactivity does not any significant effect on the tourists' flow. Second, when tourists explore the flow in the AR tourguide app, it affects all realms of experience economy of education, entertainment, esthetics, and escapism. Third, when using AR tour guide app in the context of historical heritage site, the two dimensions of entertainment and education influence the usage intention but the other two of esthetics and escapism does not. This study has presented a theoretical contribution that it focuses on historical sites as one type of tourist attractions and suggests a new modeling integrating AR attributes, flow, experience, and usage intention. In addition, it can be used to become a practical reference for revising an user-oriented AR application and customer-tailored AR tourism.

본 논문은 옛 궁궐 또는 민속마을과 같이, 어떠한 사건 또는 상황과 관계 있는 문화관광지를 관광하는데 있어서 몰입적 체험관광 시스템이 갖는 효용성을 탐구한다. 현재까지 대부분의 국내 문화관광지는 정적이고 정보전달 중심인 고전적 관람 형태를 유지하고 있다. 이는 관광 형태가 새로운 경험을 추구하는 방향으로 변화하고 문화 관광산업의 규모와 중요성이 커져가는 추세에서 해결해야 할 과제로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이를 개선하기 위한 일환으로 몰입적 체험관광 개념을 탐구하였다. 몰입적 체험관광이란, 유적지 및 사적지 유형의 관광지에서 관련된 실황을 마치 시간여행을 하듯 생생하게 체험하는 관광 방식을 의미한다. 본 개념을 실현하기 위해 증강현실 기술을 활용하였으며 문화관광지에 적용할 수 있는 시스템을 고안하였다. 이 시스템은 한 장소에 고정되는 포스트 형태로 시청각적 증강현실을 구현하여 몰입적 체험 관광을 제공한다. 실제 유적지에서 일반관람객들을 대상으로 시청각적 증강현실 체험을 실험한 결과, 흥미와 현장감이 향상됨과 동시에 컨텐츠에 대한 이해도 또한 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 과정을 통해 유적지 및 사적지 유형의 문화관광지에서 관광의 질을 높일 수 있는 몰입적 체험관광의 효과와 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 더 나아가, 본 연구는 기술의 새로운 적용 방법을 통해 새로운 경험을 창출하는 측면에서 의의를 갖는다.
