국내 콘텐츠 산업의 성장과 함께 글로벌 시장으로써 중국 시장은 여전히 신흥 시장으로서 매력적이다. 그러나 지역적 차이 및 브랜드 태도에 영향을 주는 요인에 대한 연구가 부족하여 본 연구에서는 내향적 국제화와 글로벌 문화수용성을 이용하여 소비자의 글로벌 브랜드 태도에 영향을 주는 요인을 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 중국 대도시의 소비자들을 대상으로 편의 표본 추출을 통해 샘플을 추출한 후 PLS를 활용하여 그 관계를 확인하고자 하였다. 연구 결과 소비자의 내향적 국제화 인식정도는 글로벌 문화 수용성에 영향을 미쳤으며 이는 다시 브랜드 태도 및 수용에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 사실을 파악할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 국내 기업이 신흥시장으로 진출하는데 있어서 지역의 내향적 국제화가 중요한 확인사항임을 파악할 수 있었으며 이는 상대적으로 국제화 감각이 높은 중국 연안 도시들이 여전히 글로벌 소비층으로서 주요한 타깃이 되고 있음을 시사하고 있다. 다만 본 연구에서는 중국 내륙까지 포함한 다양한 도시들에서 연구가 진행되지 못하여 향후 내륙 지역 간 소비자들의 비교 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 국내의 콘텐츠 기업들은 신흥시장으로 진출 및 타깃 공략 전략을 수립하는데 있어서 지역의 내향적 국제화 개념을 활용하여야 함을 주장하는데 의의가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of marketing strategies of children's clothing line for global SPA brands among Korean consumers. The following factors were evaluated as the dependent variables: benefits sought, store attributes, and brand loyalty. We employed a survey method to test our research questions. The subjects of our survey were mothers with preschool kids between 2 and 7 years who had purchase experiences of children's clothing lines of global SPA brands. The major findings are as follows: First, among the three factors of benefits sought ('trend'/'brand value'/'practicality'), the 'trend' factor only positively impacted the 'product' factor, which is part of the store attributes. 'Practicality' and 'trend' factors had a positive effect on the 'service' factor of store attributes. However, all three factors of benefits sought had no impact on the 'store' factor, and 'practicality' and 'trend' factors had positive effects on the price factor of store attributes. Second, 'practicality' and 'trend' factors among the three factors of benefits sought, had positive effects on brand loyalty. Third, the 'product', 'price', 'store', and 'service' factors had a significant positive effect on brand loyalty in decreasing order. Suggestions from our results for national SPA brands are as follows: National SPA children's clothing lines should focus more on unique designs and unique marketing strategies better reflecting Korean consumers' interest and needs in competing with their global counterparts.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and verify interaction effects of collaboration and brand origin as well as fashion involvement on consumer attitudes towards global sports apparel brands and Chinese local sports apparel brands targeting Chinese consumers. A survey was conducted on 425 Chinese women aged 19 to 34 years. Data were subjected to frequency analysis, reliability analysis, t-tests, 3-way ANOVA, and simple effect analysis. Results of the study are as follows. First, fashion involvement, collaboration, and brand country of origin all had a significant effect on consumer preference of Chinese consumers when purchasing sportswear. Second, fashion involvement and collaboration in purchasing sportswear had a significant interaction effect on consumer preference. Finally, collaboration, brand origin, and fashion involvement showed significant three-way interaction effects on Chinese consumers' preferences. Results of this study can help establish an efficient marketing strategy for Chinese local sportswear brands, which are fiercely competing with global sportswear brands in the Chinese market because they can examine Chinese consumers' attitudes toward sportswear brands. To accurately compare global and local sportswear brands, it must be assumed that there are no differences in brand preferences among consumers. However, as this study selected each brand as the research brand ranked as the top preference, this aspect was not taken into consideration. Therefore, in future research, it is necessary to consider differences in brand preferences and conduct the study accordingly.
