The silhouettes of the miniskirt were classified into two different categories according to side line, H-line and A-line. We altered the length of the miniskirt in five categories with changes in 25cm, 27.5cm, 30cm, 32.5cm, and 35cm. For the visual evaluation, 10 stimuli were placed in mannequins, and were estimated by the experts in the fashion design. For the visual evaluation according to changes in the silhouettes and length of the miniskirt, we used 13 pairs of items to find the visual effects, and 23 pairs of adjectives to measure the visual images. The stimuli and adjectives were randomly given to the evaluators and were evaluated by the 7-Point Likert Type Scale.

This study examined the effects of dubbing on the ticket sales of foreign animation movies put on the screen in Korea in the context of 'Skopos Theory'. The ticket power of animation increased when dubbing was chosen as the translation strategy. Moreover, the effects were greater when the animation was in the peak seasons, classified as non-restricted, and made in non-US countries. The ticket power was also found to be greater when celebrities joined in the dubbing. This finding was consistent with the 'Skopos Theory', which implied that dubbing is superior to captioning for audience understanding and audience attraction. This study confirmed empirically the positive effects of dubbing on the performance of foreign animation movies, which is the contribution to the literature that has been limited on case studies. These results also suggest that a dubbing strategy should be consistent with its target audience.
