This study defines Korean wave stars as Korean wave human brands and examines the influence of the characteristics, attachment, and self-congruity of the Korean wave human brand on brand equity. For this, this study surveyed Chinese female consumers in their 20s and 30s who consume many Korean wave products from May 2018 to June 2018. First, human brand characteristics, attachment, self-congruity, Korean wave aspiration level, and brand equity according to demographic characteristics were identified. Second, characteristics, attachment, self-congruity, and the aspiration level of the Korean wave human brand showed correlations with brand equity. However, brand awareness, a sub-factor of brand equity, does not show correlations with self-congruity. Third, characteristics, attachment, self-congruity, and Korean wave aspiration level had a positively influenced brand equity. Fourth, when looking into the mediated effect of attachment on brand equity, both human brand characteristics and self-congruity showed a partially mediated effect. Fifth, when analyzing the adjustment effect in the Korean wave aspiration level, a group with higher Korean wave aspiration level showed more correlations with attachment and brand equity. This study found that attachment and self congruity are important elements in forming human brand and brand equity. This study is significant in that it verified the influence of Korean wave brand power that has been on the rise recently on brand equity and provided a theoretical basis that has allowed researchers to determine that the characteristics, attachment, and self-congruity of Korean wave human brand significantly influence brand equity.

브랜드 연구자들은 브랜드 마케팅과 관련된 모든 의사결정은 특정 브랜드의 브랜드 아이덴티티(brand identity)를 기반으로 이루어져야 한다고 주장한다. 본 연구는, 연구자들의 논의에 근거하여 문화콘텐츠 OSMU는 콘텐츠가 창출하는 부가가치를 극대화시키기 위한 마케팅 활동이며, 모든 OSMU관련 의사결정은 특정 콘텐츠의 브랜드 아이덴티티를 중심으로 이루어져야 한다고 주장한 '브랜드 아이덴티티 기반 문화콘텐츠 OSMU 전략모델'의 타당성을 검증하고자 하였다. 연구목적 달성을 위해, 성공한 문화콘텐츠이자 막대한 브랜드 가치를 지닌 파워브랜드로 평가되는 <해리포터>를 조사대상으로 선정, 브랜드 아이덴티티를 반영한 캐릭터 상품과 그렇지 않은 상품에 대한 소비자 태도 및 브랜드 자산의 차이를 설문조사를 통해 측정하였다. 조사 결과, 소비자들은 <해리포터>의 브랜드 아이덴티티인 '마법, 선악대결, 용기'가 반영된 상품에 대해서 더욱 호감을 느끼며, 품질이 좋은 것으로 인식한다는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 브랜드 아이덴티티의 효과적인 전달에 초점을 맞춘 OSMU 전략이 문화콘텐츠의 부가가치 극대화에 기여한다는 브랜드 아이덴티티 기반 OSMU 전략모델의 주장과 일치하는 결과이다. 하지만, 브랜드 아이덴티티를 반영한 캐릭터 상품이 브랜드 자산에 미치는 영향을 측정한 결과, <해리포터>에 대한 소비자 인지도, 충성도, 지각된 품질은 상대적으로 높았으나, 그 차이가 통계적으로 유의미하지는 않았고, 그에 따라 브랜드 아이덴티티 기반 OSMU가 콘텐츠의 브랜드 자산에 영향을 미친다는 피드백 효과는 확인되지 않았다. 하지만, 콘텐츠의 브랜드 자산이란 지속적인 소비자들의 콘텐츠 관련 경험을 통해 장기적으로 구축되는 것이기 때문에, 다양한 OSMU를 통한 브랜드 아이덴티티의 지속적인 전달이 정기적으로는 콘텐츠의 브랜드 자산에 긍정적 영향을 미칠 것이라는 해석의 여지도 남아있는 바, 이와 관련된 지속적인 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 실천적 관점에서 문화콘텐츠 OSMU 전략의 타당성을 실증적으로 논의한 최초의 연구이며, 성공 프로젝트를 위한 논의에서 한발 더 나아가, <해리포터>와 같은 문화콘텐츠 파워브랜드를 구축하기 위한 방법론에 대한 관심과 논의의 필요성을 제기하였다.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine the extent to which internal brand communication (IBC) impacts on brand commitment (BC). Research design, data, and methodology - A structured questionnaire has been built and distributed on a total sample of 650 banking staff working in five public banks in Pakistan. Results - The findings of PLS-SEM revealed that besides the indirect effect of internal brand communication (IBC) on brand commitment via brand knowledge, the study also exposes a direct positive effect of IBC on brand commitment. This study also reveals that brand commitment is affected by brand knowledge and internal brand communication practices. The result of mediation reveals that brand knowledge partially mediated the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Practical implications- This study empirically validates that internal brand communication and brand knowledge are prerequisites for brand commitment. Therefore, managers, particularly in-service enterprises, should provide sufficient IBC practices and appropriate brand knowledge to enhance employees' brand commitment. Conclusions - The comprehensive analysis of the impact of brand knowledge on the proposed relationship. It further adds up to the branding literature, which is mostly qualitative and lacks empirical validation.

This research was carried out by setting hypotheses on recognition of the global image of the research subject, a domestic cosmetic brand and consequent quality of the brand, reputation of the brand, purchasing decision, influence of images of expanded countries and their correlations to investigate what effect the global images of local brands practically have on domestic consumers' purchasing decision. The analysis results show that overseas expansion of the research subject brand has positive influence on the brand possessing global images. However, it can be seen that the quality of the brand has much larger influence on the reputation of the brand than the images of global brand. In addition, the images of the expanded countries have influence on purchasing decisions but the global images based on the expanded countries did not have much influence on purchasing decisions. Therefore, it can be seen that global images based on high levels of brand reputation and quality are requirements of a most competitive brand than images of the expanded countries in forecasting likelihood of purchase.
