This study is to diagnose the tourism structure of the southern region in Kangwon province and to correct the problems regarding the subject. The methods of comparison and analysis on structural and geographical characteristics of tourists, tourism resources, and tourism industry by region have been employed. It was found that the southern region of Kangwon province has many advantages for tourism industry including excellent transportation networks such as Kangnws and Wonju and tourism demands are great for coal mines in the region including Chongson, Taebaek, and Samchok. Accordingly, tourism in the region has witnessed a distinctive increase in recent years. On the other hand, excessive dependence on nature-based tourism, concentration of tourism demands only during summer season, and insufficient tourism facilities are found to be problems. This study also found that for sustainable tourism developments in the southern region of Kangwon, categorization and diversification of tourism resources, development of combined programs connecting Kangwon province to other regions, improvement of tourism facilities, expansion of tourism market, and smaller division of tourism area are necessary.

As city tourism has recently been evaluated as a major indicator of urban competitiveness, strengthening the role of cities as tourist destinations has received more attention. However, industrialization and urbanization of many cities lead to population decline, extinction of traditional industries, and deterioration of living environments, weakening urban functions and competitiveness. Thus, it is essential for declining cities to build a measure to restore urban competitiveness by enhancing urban functions. Accordingly, this study focused on socio-cultural urban regeneration by exploring physical spaces for tourism destinations in declining cities. Different from general tourist destinations, tourism destinations of urban regeneration have a temporal perspective covering the past, present, and future. How does the temporal perspective of urban regeneration tourist destinations affect tourists' satisfaction and behavioral intention? In order to address these questions, this study conducts an empirical analysis based on structural equation modeling (SEM) using the sample of tourists who have visited urban regeneration tourism destinations. With SEM, this paper investigates structural relationships across variables by testing the hypothesis established in the proposed research model. The results show that precious memories of the past are the most important factor for tourists to visit urban regeneration tourist destinations. The empirical findings of this study will contribute to the research areas of urban tourism, urban regeneration tourism, and urban regeneration tourism destinations. In addition, this study can provide practical implications to develop socio-cultural contents of urban regeneration areas as tourism resources to establish plans for urban regeneration projects and achieve sustainable development strategies.

여가 및 레저에 대한 의식구조의 변화와 가족 중심의 여가활동의 비중이 증가하면서 자연학습장으로서, 지구과학 전시관으로서의 역할을 하고 있는 동굴이 이동을 전제로 한 가족 단위 관광객들의 관광 대상지로서 주목받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 관광자원으로서의 동굴의 특성을 살펴보고, 그 중에서도 개발 역사가 오랜 성류굴의 관광적 특성을 살펴보았다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 동굴은 지형 ·지질작용과 관계가 깊은 자원이지만 지하의 신비적 경관이 관광자원으로 활용되고, 그 구조의 특성에 따라 산업적 ·군사적 또는 학술적 연구의 이용에 크게 기여하는 등 다기능적 복합성을 띠고 있기 때문에 본 연구에서는 동굴을 ‘복합 관광자원’이라 분류한다. 이런 동굴 중에서 성류굴은 오랜 역사를 지닌 관광자원으로서 구전 전설의 주인공이라는 ‘문화 · 역사적인 특성’, 다양한 볼거리를 제공하는 ‘지형적인 특성’, 도로와 철도를 이용한 ‘교통접근성’ 등의 관광적 특성을 지니고 있다.

The objective of this paper is to develop a structural equations model system for the purpose of tourists' excursion behaviour analysis with their information usage. A tourist' excursion behavior defined as activities in the sightseeing region between arriving and leaving time includes indexes with respect to activity' time use and the number of spots. Additionally, such indexes can be modeled as endogenous variables in the structural equation model system on the assumption that they are influenced by the degree of familarity on the sightseeing region, the degree of information usage, and individual attributes. The case study application involves excursion behaviour data such as one-day excursion activity and information usage diary that are observed in the Fuji Five Lakes, Japan. Since the models presented in the paper are available to statistically analyze the covariance among the endogenous variables, they have the advantage of effectiveness analysis on information usage in the excursion area, compared to the prior approaches such as discrete choice models.

We analyze the tourist satisfaction of the Daegu City Tour which plays a big role in the local tourism boosting through '2011 Visit Daegu Year'. To analyze a causal relation among factors, we proposed a structural equation model consisting of four latent variables of the tour: motivation, expectation, satisfaction, and future behaviors. Using data from the actual tourists of the Daegu City Tour, we found out that tourists' motivation before the tour does not affect tourists' satisfaction after the tour. However those who have higher motivation have positive future behavior and those who have the higher expectation are more satisfied with the tour. Meanwhile, the expectation before the tour does not lead the future behavior but the satisfaction after the tour influences the positive future behavior.

제주특별자치도는 총면적 1,845km2로서 국토전체의 2%에 불과하나 고유한 전통문화와 이국적이며 아름다운 자연환경을 갖고 있는 우리나라의 대표적인 관광지이다. 최근에는 각종 국제행사를 유치함으로써 국내관광객 뿐만 아니라 외래 관광객도 흡입하는 국제적인 관광지로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구는 제주도에 분포하고 있는 개방형 용암동굴과 관광자원과의 연계성을 파악하고 네트워크 구조분석을 통하여 접근성과 연결성을 분석하고자 한다. 이러한 연구결과는 도로망에 따른 관광객의 이동성에 대한 관광개발계획에 시사점을 제공할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effects of destination mood and tourist's mood state on the relationship between tourism memory and revisit intention focusing on the psychological approach. The number of subjects for the research is 301 visitors enjoying tourist destinations in Gyeongju and Jeju. This study employs path analysis offered by the AMOS 28 statistical program to analyze the mediating effects of destination mood and tourists' mood states. The path analysis shows that tourism experience positively influences tourism memory, tourism memory positively affects revisit intention, and there are mediating effects of Destination mood and tourist's mood state on the relationship between tourism memory and revisit intention.

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact relation among the visitor satisfaction, it's antecedents and the modification of images of Korea perceived by Chinese and Russian Tourists after their visits to Korea. According to the data analysis, the satisfaction of Russian tourists is higher than that of Chinese tourists within statistical significance. The result produced by structural equation model shows that the satisfaction of Chinese tourists is affected by destination attractiveness, public order, shopping, food and accommodations positively. Especially the public order and shopping of Korea are relative major attributes. In comparison, the satisfaction of Russian tourists is affected by only destination attractiveness, public order and food positively. Then again, the impact relation between overall satisfaction and the modification of images of Korea perceived by tourist visited Korea is affected positively within statistical significance.

현재 우리나라의 수많은 관광지에서는 극심한 교통혼잡과 주차난을 겪고 있다. 본 연구는 대포항 교차로와 대포항 주차장의 기하구조 및 이용실태를 조사한 후, 현재 교차로와 주차장 진ㆍ출입로의 기하구조와 주차장 운영현황 및 그 이용실태의 문제점 분석을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 현장에서 실제 조사한 교차로의 도로조건과 주차장의 진ㆍ출입로는 조사된 그림(1. 대포항 교차로, 2. 대포항 주차장 구획도)으로 분석하고 주차자의 운영현황 및 이용실태는 현장조사를 토대로 누적주차대수, 주차회전율, 차량당 평균주차지속시간, 주변도로 혼잡영향 분석 등의 방법을 통해 얻어진 결과로 분석할 것이다. 분석결과, 주차장 인접 교차로에서는 버스정류장과 우회전 차로의 합류, 우회전 차로와 주차장 진ㆍ출입로의 합류 등의 기하구조상의 문제로 직진ㆍ우회전 차량, 주차장 진ㆍ출입 차량의 혼잡을 예상할 수 있었고, 주중에는 13시 51분에, 주말에는 10시55분에 이미 주차장은 포화상태를 보여 최초 대기차량이 발생하였으므로 주차공급이 부족함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, 관광지라는 특성상 기후나 시기적 영향을 많이 받는다는 점을 감안해야할 것이다. 따라서, 관광지 주차장의 조사는 여러 가지 측면에 더 연구되어질 필요가 있다.
