Accordingly, this study has the following implications. First, government should realize the fact even gamers are confused over differences in such concepts concerning game and have processes to reestablish game overindulgence and game addiction and follow policies to establish such images. Second, loyalty to game products should be enhanced by highlighting the features to buy items and additional contents through game networks as well as features to share contents and records generated within games for those with overindulgence. Moreover, companies should strengthen publicity to increase loyalty to game companies. Conversely, the focus should be on game product image rather than corporate image. Third, game companies should engage in strategies for the game's direction, development, and marketing to establish positive brand based on game products and help become the brand of the corporation itself.

This study was conducted to examine differences in the relationship between experiential variables and outcome variables of experiential variables. In this regard, this research tries to construct the items based on past researches and to suggest the problems of the items of past researches. The analysis of various aspects of experiential variables and the validation tests of some models are presented to suggest what the optimal model is and the following suggestions can be made. First, respondents may not feel that the three dimensions of sensation, emotion, and cognition are significantly different. Depending on the respondents, there is a possibility that they may not be able to perceive much of the linguistic difference. The results of this study are summarized as follows. From this point of view, this study suggest that it would be suitable to proceed with the thesis with the experience of simplifying the combination of the five experiences in some combination. Second, there is a correlation between experiential variables, and the effect on outcome variables may vary from one variable to another. And, when there are two outcome variables, assuming a model that affects only the first outcome variable among the experience variables, it is the most suitable model in relation to the performance variable of experience.

Presently, The Regular Block System(Automatic, Interlocking block system) is usually used during the operation of block section. However, In case that the regular block system fails because of the failure of the fixed signals and block equipment or in case of the unexpected emergent situation which should drive on the single-track due to the accidents in the double-track section or the repair work of the one-track, the Substitute Block System to make use of the driving permission license(mapping ticket, mapping paper) is used. In case of the operation of the opposite line and the temporary one-track, the safety gets worse and the SBS may cause the fatal accidents such as a head-on & a rear-end collision. Also, the unmanned railroad stations has recently increased owing to the effective operation of the stations, for it is difficult to execute the SBS in their absence. As a result, the increase of the operation time made the train delayed. Being on the rise of these problems, in this study, we analyzed the problems and difficulties of the SBS on the single line which is lacking stability and safety and on the sections combined between maned and unmaned railroad stations. And we proposed the method to improve the existing drive permission license used for 50 years into the brand-new one with state-of-the art technology and scientific way. In the era of the 21th century, Carrying out the new SBS equipped with stability and safety, we will contribute to the effective operation of trains and the satisfaction of our customers in the future.
