This paper performed to predict vertical temperature distribution and air flow near cold heat source in the mass merchandising store. At the height of 150 cm, the vertical air temperature difference between the results of CFD and of measurement field showed $10\%$ near the refrigeration zone and $8.8\%$ near the freezing zone. Therefore, it regarded as appropriate for the using CFD to investigate airflow near the heat sources. The 3 kinds of CFD model were divided by the disposition of diffuser/exhaust and diffuser air temperature. At the refrigeration and freezing zone in the Model 2 and 3, the temperature difference between the front and the back of human model were showed $6.8^{\circ}C\;and\;3.9^{\circ}C$ with diffuser air temperature $17^{\circ}C$ and were showed $6.8^{\circ}C$ and $4^{\circ}C$ with diffuser air temperature $19^{\circ}C$.

SPA brands have quickly expanded in domestic fashion markets as native SPA brands enter markets that foreign SPA brands previously occupied. It is important that each SPA brand establish its own brand identity to differentiate itself from other brands when SPA brand competition in fashion markets increases. This study investigates how SPA brands express brand identities through colors due to their importance for visualization strategies and brand identity. This study conducted a simultaneous literature study and case study. First, this study reviewed the theoretical background of brand identity and its relationship with colors as well as SPA brands by studying relevant literature and cases of domestic academic theses and data on Internet web sites. After reviewing the theoretical background of SPA brands, this study selected 4 stores of SPA brands (8SECONDS, H&M, UNIQLO, and ZARA) as case study targets and analyzed the stores' external appearance, interior and product colors. Store analysis divided colors into identity colors and trend colors with each SPA company expressing its own brand identity through: the store's external appearance (logo color), painted interior colors (ceiling, floor, walls, mannequins, hangers, equipment, and store-carrier bag), or trend colors (reflected in the store's main display hall or products). The results consider that each SPA brand sets the mass market as their target, and chooses the commercialization of latest fashion by selecting the latest trends in the fashion trend cycle, so its products do not reflect characteristics symbolizing the company's uniqueness and brand.

Purpose - This study aims to seek determinants of department store sales commission rates under consignment contracts based on transaction cost theory, the power-dependence view, and the resource-based view. A consignment contract is a unique contract where the retailer, over a given period, takes possession of goods owned by a supplier, promotes the sales of these goods, and receives a profit share from their sales. Under this contract, the supplier owns the goods until they are sold. In department stores in South Korea, over 70% of overall sales comes through consignment contracts. In other words, this is the most popular contract agreement between large retailers and vendors in South Korea. Consignment contracts yield high profits to department stores with minimal sales uncertainty, stock cost, and marketing investment. Many suppliers believe the consignment contract commission rates are too high. However, department stores disagree. They state that the commissions are not high as they generate new value for the suppliers by accumulating up-to-date merchandise and supporting various marketing programs on their behalf. Recently, consignment contracts have been critically examined and scrutinized by politicians, mass media, and the public of Korea. This study further intends to derive implications reflecting both buyer and seller perspectives as well as offer insights to policy makers in making appropriate decisions. Research design, data, and methodology - To verify the proposed research model and test hypotheses, the authors selected 164 suppliers, which currently have relationships with department stores. This study carefully investigated the reliability, content validity, convergent validity, and discriminant validity of the proposed model. The data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS structural equation modeling program Results - For the transaction cost theory and the power-dependence view, the results indicated that product diversity and demand volatility had a positive impact on the sales dependence on a department store. Dependence in turn had a positive effect on the sales commission under the consignment contract. Based on the resource-based view, the department store's marketing capability, the supplier's perception toward merchandising, and supporting activities could enhance the department store's channel leadership in the buyer-seller relationship. Subsequently, the channel leadership had a positive effect on the sales commission. However, product complexity had no relationship with department store dependence. Conclusions - This is the first empirical research that investigates the determinants of sales commissions under consignment contracts in the domestic retail industry. This study reveals several theoretical and practical implications for both marketing scholars and marketers. In terms of theoretical implication, this study integrated and enlarged certain theoretical background, such as transaction cost theory, the power-dependence view, and the resource-based view, to explain the determinants of sales commissions under consignment contracts that include sales revenue. From a business management viewpoint, this research offers useful insights for policy makers by applying two different perspectives, both the manufacturer and the retailer, in terms of the sales commission issue under a consignment contract.

The purposes of this study are to investigate the formation and the change of apparel retail structure historically with the viewpoint that the retail structure is affected by the process of economic development. This study was done by literature research method and the result of this study is the following. The tailor and seamstress shops, the first clothing shops in Korea, were replaced by ready-made shops, because mass production system which had developed with the industrialization of Korea increased the advantage of economy of scale compared to handicrafts individual one. After that, the production system of apparel industry had been efficient continuously, while retail system had not. The retailing of famous brand apparel conducted by exclusive franchise store caused supplier oriented markets where the opinion and the desire of consumers were not reflected. While the retailing of the unknown brand apparel handled by small retail stores were inefficient. As the apparel industry matured in 1990s, various types of new stores appeared such as specialty stores, discount stores, TV home shopping, internet shopping, outlet malls, and big fashion stores in Dongdeamoon. These new stores have features of seeking profits in mass merchandising. As these large retail stores grow, the apparel retail structure of Korea is changing from a fragmented market to a vertically integrated one. This change is shown by the decrease of stores per inhabitants. With the change of environment, the apparel retail system which has lagged behind comparatively is expected to develop into more efficient system based on the large capital investment which raise the advantage of economy of scale.

21세기의 소비자 시장은 첫째, 패션 데모크라시의 현상으로 소비자들은 무조건적인 유행추종으로 이탈하는 삶들의 수가 많아지면서 자연의 주체적인 판단에 의해서 스스로의 패션을 선택, 창조해 가려는 현상을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 토탈 패션의 추구현상으로, 앞으로의 소비자들은 단품상품을 차별화하는데 목표를 두기보다는 자신의 개성과 가치관에 기초한 다양한 패션요소를 고려하는 경향으로 가고 있다. 셋째, 월드퀄리티 지향으로, 생활수준의 향상과 함께 소비자의 패션의식을 소재, 품질, 디자인, 브랜드 이미지와 같은 요소들의 세계적 통용성을 강조하는 데로 이행해 가고 있다. 넷째, 신 합리주의의 등장으로, 소비자들은 패션의 고급화를 추구시킨 상품전략에 있어서 현명함, 진실함을 강조하고 합리적인 가격대를 요구하는 경향이 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 다섯째, 컨셉트 지향으로, 소비자 을은 각자 개인의 생활 장면(Life Scene)에 적합한 컨셉트 지향을 추구하는 현상으로 변하고 있다. 변화된 패션시장에 대응하기 위한 새로운 마케팅전략을 제시하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, Borderless가 점차 진행되면서 어패럴이 고객 개인에게 Custom made 상품을 제공하는 등 업체의 경계가 희미해지고 있다. 둘째, 비즈니스를 표준화 시스템화하여 집중관리 방식을 취하는 기업이 증가하면 할수록 그 niche시장을 겨냥하는 게릴라가 등장하는 고랄라와 게릴라의 2극화가 진행된다. 기본적으로는 개인의 창의 연구를 중요시하고 고감도로 현장밀착을 지향하고 있다. 그러나 이 2극화도 완전 분리하는 것이 아니라 고릴라가 게릴라적 움직임을 보이고 게릴라가 고릴라적 하이테크를 사용하는 등의 서로 보완적인 관계가 되는 현상이다. 셋째, Value retailing의 성장으로, 메스 머천다이징을 지향하는 기업이나 카테고리고리 킬러라고 칭해지는 기업 군이 점점 새로운 상품영역으로 확대되어 대형화 되어서 비즈니스의 share를 확대하고 있다. 넷째, 아웃소싱의 활용으로, 자사의 회사에 있는 기능, 지금까지 자가만이 해온 것을 모두 검토하여 <이것만은 우리가 강하다>고 하는 것만 남기고 다른 것은 외부의 기능을 이용하는 동향이 해마다 강해지고 있다. 다섯째, 무점포 판매의 확대로, 카탈로그 등의 통신판매에 더하여 인터넷의 등장, CD-ROM판매도 구체화되었다. 어느 유력한 미국의 Thinktank는 <2010년에 의류품과 홈제품의 전 매출액의 5.5%가 None.store가 될 것이다.>라고 예측하고 있다. 이상과 같은 문제를 극복하기 위해서는, 첫째, International, Global차원의 마케팅과, 둘째, Technology의 향상, 셋째, 지식 창조형의 마케팅이 요구된다.
