This study aims to investigate strategies for attracting consumers in Urban Entertainment Centers and understand the relationship between user satisfaction and intention of revisiting. To accomplish this, the strategic attraction factors were set as functional, experiential, episodic, and semantic. The relationships between these factors and revisiting intentions were studied experimentally. The result of the study can be summarized to 3 points. First, the 4 strategic factors that were selected all had a significant influence on revisiting intention. Therefore the more these factors have an influence, the higher the satisfaction and revisiting intentions. Secondly, out of the attraction factors the one with the biggest influence to customer satisfaction turned out to be 'functional factors' which is related to convenience, accessibility and availability. The factor that had the biggest influence on revisiting intentions turned out to be 'semantic factors' which is related to events, unusualness and temporality. Through this result we can see that to enhance satisfaction 'functional factors' should be considered first and to increase revisiting intentions 'episodic factors' should be considered first. Thirdly, it could be assumed that satisfaction of the visitors could boost intentions of revisiting.

Purpose: This study specifically discusses why coffee shop customers want to revisit coffee shops. In addition, we would like to verify the mediated effect of the emotional reaction in relation to the influence of the experience values of the Chinese coffee shop on the re-visit of the coffee shop. Research design, data and methodology: Regression and reliability analyses were conducted. Simple regression was used for stock price verification, and the bootstrap method of model4 of Hayes was performed for the intermediate hypothesis verification. Results: This study confirmed that the experience values of coffee shops (entertainment, aesthetic, economic efficiency, and service excellence) have a significant influence on customers' intention to revisit coffee shops. Conclusions: Managers can check that the level of revisit by customers is increased by increasing the elements of experience value. In addition, studies have shown that the customer's emotional reactions play a significant mediating role in the relationship between the value of the experience and the customer's intention to revisit the coffee shop. This suggests that the coffee shop operator should focus on the emotional response of its customers and devise strategies to ensure that the value of the experience is connected to the intent of revisiting.
