This study was conducted to develop the unique native local foods of Namwon and to provide basic data needed to reinvigoratethe tourist industry and local economy. Perception and satisfaction with native local foods of Namwon were surveyed in 483 tourists (246 men and 237 women 53% visiting Namwon for the first time). Of the participants, 41.2% did not stay or eat in Namwon. Most tourists visited with other family members and spent approximately 20,000 won per capita on food. Of the foods sampled for the first time, preferred foods were (in order of preference and intention to order again) Chueo-tang, Hanjeongsik, wild edible greens-jeongsik, and black pork. The degree of food satisfaction was relatively favorable (3.54${\pm}$0.08 points on a 5-point satisfaction scale), with taste being the most important factor affecting the degree of satisfaction for 92.9% of the subjects. However, willingness to revisit Namwon on the basis of the local foods was not as high as the degree of satisfaction with the foods. Insufficient information and publicity concerning Namwon local foods were cited as impediments, and suggested improvements included taste, sanitation and food-based tourism. The degree of satisfaction was higher in men than in women. Age, residence, and occupation were not related to the degree of satisfaction. But, the willingness to revisit Namwon to sample local foods was related with gender (men more willing) and occupation (public service personnel, business owners, salaried employees, professionals, and housewives more willing, in order). Women in general and housewives in particular were most critical in food assessment.

Purpose - The current study examines the shopping behavior of Chinese tourists who purchase Korean cosmetics when visiting Korea, based on expectancy-disconfirmation of shopping satisfaction and brand attitude toward Korean cosmetics. A moderating effect of consumer conformity on the relationships between cosmetics selection factors and two dimensions of disconfirmation - expectation and performance is also examined. Research design, data, and methodology - We conducted a survey with 250 Chinese tourists who visited Jeju, Korea and had purchased Korean cosmetics during their stay. Excluding 43 respondents' inputs because of incomplete answers and missing values, 207 responses were used in the final analysis. All hypotheses were tested using structural equation model (SEM). Results - We found that the Chinese tourist expectations had positive impact on their satisfaction, and the factors for cosmetic selection had a positive effect on shopping satisfaction and brand attitude. A moderating effect of consumer conformity was found to be significant. Conclusions - Given the significantly increased demand for Korean cosmetics from Chinese tourists, Korean cosmetics firms need to better understand cosmetics selection attributes and preference of Chinese tourists, which can provide a guideline to develop retail stores and distribution outlets for Chinese tourists.

Prior research on Extended Reality (XR) has been a starting point for the development of the Metaverse. It is also a concern for researchers in the tourism field since it can enhance the tourist experience. Metaverse Tourism provides a virtual experience of the tourism destination for the users. It is potentially developed and predicted to be the future of tourism, enhancing the tourist experience through communication between humans and avatars and providing a new option for tourists to enjoy leisure activities. Recently, discussion on Metaverse tourism is still emerging, with some open talks from researchers in the intersections between information technology and tourism. This study extends prior studies by proposing six Metaverse tourism elements and categorizing them into core and supporting elements. Then, we analyze the consequences of those elements on the Tourism Experience Journey to enhance each stage with different characteristics. This study can contribute to continuing recent dialogues among scholars on how Metaverse can be applied in the tourism sector by proposing six elements that should be considered in developing and creating Metaverse services.

'파리의 더러운 지하철', '런던의 비싼 물가' 등 관광지에 대한 몇 마디 말은 관광지를 직관적으로 이해하는데 도움을 준다. 관광지에 대한 직관적 평가를 파악하기 위해서 클러스터링 기법을 사용하였다. '주차', '경치', '시설'과 같은 다양한 라벨을 부여하여 클러스터링을 비교한 결과 '주차', '경치' 등 비슷한 문맥의 리뷰가 같은 클러스터로 묶인 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 각 분야의 문맥을 파악하기 위해 대표문장을 추출하였다. 각 분야의 대표문장은 해당 분야의 평가를 잘 파악할 수 있었고, 해당분야의 만족도뿐만 아니라 불편사항 등을 이해하는데 도움을 준다.

생태관광은 지속가능한 관광의 한 분야로써 관광지의 환경 보전, 주민 참여와 복지향상, 관광체험과 교육, 자연에 대한 새로운 경험과 자연을 알아가는 관광으로 인식되고 있으며, 관광 분야에서 빠른 속도로 발전하고 있는 분야이다. 생태관광은 성장과정에서 관광지의 지속가능성이 새로운 과제로 부각되고 있다. 이를 배경으로 이 연구는 경제적, 사회 문화적, 환경적, 제도적 지속가능성 등과 생태관광지의 지속가능성과의 관계를 연구하였다. 연구결과는 생태관광지의 지속가능성을 위해 보호지역의 지정, 생태관광지 관리 주체의 확립, 학술적 목적의 정기적인 조사와 연구, 탐방객 관리와 안내, 지역주민의 협력과 참여, 해설사와 관리자의 적극적 활동 등을 위한 제도적 뒷받침이 우선되어야 한다는 점을 확인하였다. 그리고 생태관광 자원의 매력은 관광자의 접근과 지역주민의 영향에 의한 것이 많았다. 따라서 생태관광지에서 관광자의 접근, 지역주민에 의한 토지 활용 등에 주의 깊은 관리가 되어야 한다. 향후 방문자 센터의 운영, 해설사의 생태자원에 대한 전문적 교육을 통한 사명감 고취, 해설사에 의한 관광자 교육 및 안내 등이 실행된다면 생태관광지의 지속가능성에 도움이 될 것이다.
