Purpose - This study aimed to analyze the strategy of late domestic entrants into the Chinese retail market, focusing on the case of Lotte-Mart, given that there are few studies on market entry strategies of domestic retail companies in China. Research Design, data, methodology - The methodology of this paper is a case study approach, focusing on literature reviews and a few interviews. We conducted a survey by disseminating questionnaires and conducting interviews focusing on the Chinese retail market, and analyzed Lotte-Mart's market entry strategy in China. Results - Lotte-Mart chose M&A as the mode of entry, pursuing quick market entry and rapid expansion. It chose small to medium size cities with relatively less competition. Subsequently, Lotte-Mart devoted significant effort towards localization, attempting to organize stores and assorting products to fit the Chinese consumers' preferences. It operated CSR programs to increase its brand awareness and to create a favorable brand image. Conclusions - Lotte-Mart now needs to devise alternative corporate strategies for business expansion and growth. An understanding of the Chinese retail market and the case study analysis of Lotte-Mart's market entry strategy offers significant insights for domestic retail companies looking to expand into China.

중국 이러닝 시장은 인터넷 이용자수 증가 및 교육시장 성장과 함께 원격교육 개념이 점차 보편화되면서 매년 20%이상 급성장하고 있다. 하지만 이와 같은 중국 이러닝 시장의 양적 성장과 발전가능성에도 불구하고 아직까지 국내 이러닝 산업의 중국시장진출은 약 3조에 가까운 규모에 비해 미미한 실적을 보이고 있다. 이러닝 산업은 IT산업과 교육이 합쳐진 형태로 해당 국가의 교육 정책 및 ICT 인프라 정책에 따라 영향을 받는 등 복합적인 요인들을 고려해야 한다. 또한 추진 주체가 정부가 되기도 하고 민간 기업이 되기도 하면서 서로 다른 환경을 형성하고 있다. 따라서 중국의 교육문화에 대한 정확한 분석을 기반으로 하는 중국시장진출에 대한 심층적인 방안이 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 문헌 연구를 통해 이러닝과 이러닝 산업에 대하여 알아본 후 국내와 중국 이러닝 시장 현황에 대해서 살펴보고, 아울러 중국시장 진출 국내외 기업 사례연구를 통해 국내 기업의 중국 이러닝 시장 진출방안을 제시하였다.

The China has opened the distribution market completely since it joined the World Trade Organization on Dec 11 2001. The notable features of Chinese distribution market are the transition from the consumers' monolithic demand to diversification for the luxury goods, well-being products. The regional characteristics of consumers are smart, conservative, optimistic and advanced. and the open door policy has prompted the capitalistic economy gradually. We analyzed the Chinese distribution markets and came up with the following strategies. First, we recommend the setting of the key regional market not covering the whole chinese markets. then we can extend the main market step by step. Second, we need to cooperate and advance with the Korean distribution companies which entered into markets already. Third, we need to acquire the competitive and stable distribution channel in China. Fourth, we need to implement the localization strategy in terms of human resources and procurement. Fifth, the consignment management can be another strategy. I hope this research can be a little help to those who wish to expand to the Chinese markets.

최근 중국의 보험시장은 핀테크와 보험을 결합한 형태인 인슈어테크를 도입하였다. 이는 보험가입자가 더 이상 보험 설계자를 직접적으로 만나 계약을 체결하지 않고 자신에게 맞는 모험을 온라인에서 직접 가입할 수 있는 것이다. 이러한 인슈어테크라는 새로운 트렌드는 보험시장에서는 엄청난 발전으로 여겨진다. 특히, 인슈어테크의 성장률은 엄청난 속도를 보이고 있다. 게다가 중국 보험시장은 자국의 경제성장률의 둔화와는 상관없이 보편적으로 안정적이고 빠른 속도로 성장하는 추세이다. 예를 들면, 2016년 보험 산업의 수입 프리미엄을 전체적으로 계산하면 3조 1천 억 위안으로 그 이전 해에 비해 27.5%나 성장하였다. 더불어 중국 보험시장의 수요 규모는 전 세계에서 두 번째로 큰 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그럼에도 불구하고 중국에 진출한 한국 보험기업들은 중국 현지에 적응 하지 못하고 오히려 경영성과에서 좋지 않은 성적을 보이고 있다. 이는 중국 보험시장의 최근 트렌드를 분석함에 있어서 부족하였고, 그 환경에 적응하지 못한 것으로 보인다. 따라서 본 논 문은 최근 중국에서 인슈어테크라는 새로운 변화를 도입할 수 있었던 중국 정부 정책의 변화와 실제 인슈어테크를 도입한 중국의 보험 기업을 분석함으로써, 한국 보험회사들의 중국 시장 재진출 전략에 대한 시사점을 제고하고자 한다.

This study is focused on the medical services market in china which would be the largest one in the world sooner or later. An empirical research has been performed on the country images and related buying attitudes of the Chinese potential consumers for foreign medical services of more higher level. Upon the basis of this research results, the components of a country image has been restructured and the country image effects on the process of a purchasing decision of the advanced foreign medical services in China has been investigated and analyzed. This research shows that the forming process and the dimensions of a country image in Chinese consumers are rather simplified than the former researches of the same kind in any other countries. In China the expectation and buying intension for foreign medical services is found to be affected directly by a country image. Furthermore among various components of a country image the expected service quality level of the Chinese is found to be mostly dependent on the social stability and safety rather than on the degree of economic developments. Recently breaking through the domestic medical market crisis, more and more hospitals consider to advance into Chinese medical market. This research shows that the reexamination and political concerns on the country image of Korea are needed in the level of government's public relations. Especially the proactive policy making and propaganda of political, social and economic stability and safety in Korea are thought to be more important for successful entry in Chinese medical services market.
