Purpose - Online shopping enables consumers to conveniently purchase products irrespective of the time and place. As a result, several online shopping companies have emerged to cater to this growing market and, therefore, the competition among them has become increasingly intense. This paper evaluates the comparative efficiency of online shopping companies for a multi-year period (2009-2013), in order to help online shopping managers identify major drivers for enhancing management efficiency and the subsequent competitiveness. Research design, data, and methodology - The researchers collected the data from 2009 to 2013 from the distribution yearbook. This paper analyzes the marketability (sales figures), profitability (business profits), and management conditions (net profits) of domestic online shopping enterprises by incorporating information on human resources (number of employees) and material resources (total assets and capital). Therefore, the number of employees, total assets, and capital are selected as input variables, and sales figures, business profits, and net profits as the output variables. In this study, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to measure the comparative efficiency of domestic online shopping companies. In addition, the Malmquist Productivity Index was used to evaluate the trend of change of Decision Making Units' (DMUs') efficiency for a multi-year period. Results - First, as of 2013, Interpark (2.415) was found to be the most efficient online shopping enterprise, followed by Aladdin Communications (2.117), Hyundai Home shopping (1.867), Home&Shopping (1.176), NS Home shopping (1.170), Commerce Planet (1.126), CJ O Shopping (1.105), Ebay Korea (1.088), and GS Home Shopping (1.051). Second, this study recognizes how the management efficiency has changed for the period 2009-2013. Third, the lesser the capital and employees, the more are the net profits, and the better is the management efficiency of domestic online shopping companies. Lastly, the productivity of such companies is influenced by endogenous factors rather than exogenous factors such as shifts in business environment and technological advances. Conclusions - DHC Korea influenced various distribution channels to reach customers through the Internet. Consequently, this helped in increasing the awareness about its products, in addition to an increase in sales. These achievements can be attributed to the characteristics of online shopping companies. Although it is easy for these companies to suggest goods for one-off purchases, they however have difficulties in retaining customers. Overcoming this challenge can be one of the ways to benchmark a successful case of an efficient company. For example, an online shopping company can attract customers by developing a corresponding mobile application as a convenient way to shop online. Additionally, they can satisfy customers by quick delivery of purchased products, which is possible by building an effective logistics network. Our study indicates that the productivity of an online shopping company was influenced by endogenous factors driven by improvements in managerial practices rather than exogenous factors. Accordingly, online shopping companies should adopt strategies to improve their operational efficiency rather than sales volume-oriented management.

인터넷 쇼핑몰 시장의 급성장 속에서 의류 쇼핑몰이 선결해야 할 가장 중요한 과제는 바로 구매 후의 높은 반품률이다. 이러한 반품률은 감성적 구매를 요구하는 소비자들의 인터넷 의류 쇼핑몰에 대한 불만족과 불신으로 이어지고, 이로 인한 고객 만족의 하락으로 인터넷 의류 쇼핑몰의 미래를 어둡게 하는 가장 큰 장애요소로 부각되고 있는 상황이다. 즉 보고, 만져보고, 느껴보려는 소비자들의 감성적 구매요구를 충족시키지 못하고 있다는 것이다. 최근에는 사이버 피팅(cyber fitting)형 쇼핑몰이 등장해 이 같은 인터넷 쇼핑의 단점을 보완해 주고 있지만 시각적 흥미를 유발시키는 데는 성공했지만 기존 서술형 사이트에 비해 정보 제공성이라는 면에서 그리고 구매자의 필요한 감성적 욕구를 충족시키지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 사용자 중심의 인터넷 홈쇼핑에 대한 해결 방안을 다음과 같이 모색하고자 한다. 첫째, 사용자들이 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 프로토타입(Prototype)의 개발이며, 둘째, 프로토타입(Prototype)에 따른 인터페이스를 통해 3D 가상현실로 내용적으로 그리고 감성적 욕구를 충족 시켜 소비자들이 정확한 판단을 이끌어낼 수 있도록 정보를 시각화하여 전달하고자 한다. 즉, 현재까지의 일방적이고, 정형화되어진 인터넷 전자 상거래 쇼핑몰을 소비자의 감성적 요구를 충족시킬 수 있는 사용자 중심의 3D 아바타를 이용한 인터넷 쇼핑몰 프로토타입(Prototype) 유형을 제시 하고자 한다.

Purpose: As part of these efforts, in-depth research is needed on efficient and practical utilization of underground spaces and underground shopping malls. In addition, efforts are being made to find effective alternatives to various problems currently occurring in underground shopping malls, but it is not easy. In addition, the development entity and the maintenance entity are different from each other, and the management is not unified, making it difficult to maintain underground shopping malls. From this point of view, it can be said that it is time to actively and specifically discuss ways to revitalize underground shopping malls. Data and methodology: In the domestic distribution environment, traditional markets and shops are stagnating due to rapid changes in consumption patterns, such as the spread of large companies with advanced distribution techniques such as hypermarkets, shopping malls, and SCM, the rapid increase in Internet and home shopping, and the importance of convenience for young consumers. In order to revitalize underground shopping malls, it is necessary to strengthen the organization and self-rescue efforts of merchants' associations, change consciousness through merchant education, change to specialized markets, find nuclear stores and representative restaurants, and support the hardware sector. Results: The connection of underground shopping malls in each region of the country, where commercial districts are separated from each other, will also play an important role in reviving the function of the city in the future. To do this, it is first necessary to connect underground shopping malls that have been cut off. In other words, connection between connectable underground shopping malls should be promoted. Of course, long-term projects should be promoted step by step, and many consultations should be made on how to connect with the ground for each local government. Conclusion: This is because in the future, the underground space cannot just be a walking place, but another space of the Korean Wave where you can experience satisfying the five senses. K-shopping Hallyu content can be created by creating a characteristic story for each underground shopping mall in the city, permanently this story-oriented event, and creating a safe and elegant environment. If there is a story, so-called "Senomi Shopping" will be possible. A new Korean Wave will be created that can satisfy "the fun of writing, the fun of seeing, and the fun of feeling" at the same time.
