This study attempted to provide preliminary information for retailers to identify viable entertainment elements and to select and develop the optimal mix of entertainment elements for target consumer groups. The study examined consumer responses to various retail entertainment elements and analyzed differences in responses by consumer characteristics. The index of retail entertainment elements was developed with 49 items including entertainment facilities, dining facilities, retail, service facilities, store atmosphere, and marketing mix. The results from respondents' perceived excitement and visit intention for each entertainment element generally showed higher responses to basic marketing mix and store atmosphere elements rather than to entertainment and dining facilities.

This study investigates the following important financial questions using entertainment enterprises: 1) how does cash reserve affect a firm's financial value? 2) what factors influence the level of cash retention of a firm? For empirical tests, we use accounting and financial data of entertainment companies listed in the KOSPI and KOSDAQ markets for a long-term time period covering from 2000 to 2018. The main findings of this paper are as follows: First, entertainment companies maintain higher level of cash holdings compared to non-entertainment companies. Second, the cash holdings of entertainment enterprises have positive influence on firms' financial value. Third, among various firm characteristics known for affecting the cash holdings level, leverage and profitability exhibit strong relationships in entertainment enterprises. Entertainment firms with lower leverage and higher profitability tend to reserve more cash inside them. These findings suggest that entertainment companies are highly valued by stock market participants as having prospective opportunities, thus, firms with sufficient cash holdings tend to have higher firm value. In addition, these findings imply that cash in entertainment enterprises functions as a substitute for debts and the cash holdings are less likely driven by agency problems.

One of the important issues in finance literature is how the capital structure influences firm performance. This paper aims to investigate this relationship by focusing specifically on the entertainment industry. Taking into account the growing importance of research and development (R&D) activities in the industrial revolution 4.0 era, an additional goal of this paper is to examine how the R&D intensity moderates the relationship between the capital structure and firm performance, particularly in the entertainment industry. We find that the relationship between the capital structure measured by debt ratio and the firm performance in the entertainment industry shows distinctive features from those obtained from entire industries. While the negative influence of the increase of debt ratio is strong and consistent with various proxies when using a sample with entire industries, we cannot find this distinctive influence among entertainment enterprises. The moderating effect of R&D investments on the negative influence of debt ratio on the firm value, observed in the sample with entire industries, is not found in the sample composed of entertainment companies. These findings suggest that the influence of the debt level on firm performance and the role of R&D investments in this relationship in the entertainment industry are perceived and evaluated differently by financial market participants.

과거에서 지금까지 연예인의 로맨스 루머는 엔터테인먼트 기업의 측면에서 부정적인 요소였으며 이러한 모습은 기사로도 쉽게 접할 수 있다. 이 연구는 익명성 로맨스 루머가 엔터테인먼트 기업의 가치에 미치는 경제적 영향을 사건 연구 방법을 이용해 살펴보았다. 2013년부터 2017년까지 상장된 기업을 중심으로 총 112건의 로맨스 루머를 수집하였고 80건의 비 익명성 루머. 32건의 익명성 루머로 이루어져있다. 해당 엔터테인먼트의 주식 자료가 분석에 이용되었다. 연예인의 로맨스 정보가 유출된 시점 전후의 비정상 수익률 추정을 통해 연예인에 대한 로맨스 루머 언급에 기업의 가치 변화에 미치는 유의성을 실증적으로 검증하였고, 로맨스 루머에 있어서 익명성에 대한 영향이 비익명성의 영향과 차이가 있는지 비교분석을 하였다. 연구 결과 연예인의 로맨스 루머의 언급 및 유출은 해당 엔터테인먼트 기업의 주가 변동에 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났으며, 추가적으로 연예인의 특성이 엔터테인먼트 기업의 주가에 어떠한 상이한 영향을 미치는지 또한 살펴보았다. 로맨스 루머의 특성은 '성별', '직업'으로 구분하였고, 이에 대한 분석 결과, 특징에 따라 기업의 가치에 큰 영향이 없는 것으로 관찰되었다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 사건연구 방법을 통해 연예인의 익명성 로맨스 루머가 엔터테인먼트 기업의 가치에 미치는 영향을 실제 시장 데이터를 활용하여 실증적으로 분석하였다는 것에 의미가 있다.
