The number of international tourists is noticeably recovering in many parts of the world, with the number of Vietnamese tourists growing significantly. Consequently, this study aims to identify the factors influencing the image of Vietnam's tourist destinations among international tourists interested in visiting the country. Additionally, the study examines whether the perception formed in this manner subsequently affects their intention to visit. The findings reveal that cultural attractions and eWOM (Electronic Word of Mouth) positively influence the development of a tourism destination image. However, film tourism did not have a significant effect on the destination image. Moreover, it was observed that the destination image indeed influences the intention to visit.

본 연구는 과용문제가 있다고 판단되는 무등산도립공원의 이용분산을 위한 도시근교림(어등산)의 대체자원으로서의 이용가능성 타진과 더불어 휴양자원의 대체성(substitutability)에 영향을 미치는 관련요인을 규명하기 위하여 시행되었다. 2012년 6~8월 중 광주광역시 근교림의 하나인 어등산과 무등산도립공원 두 장소를 모두 방문한 경험이 있는 휴양객을 대상으로 편의샘플링과 스노우볼 샘플링에 의해 추출된 232명을 대상으로 자기기입식 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 이중 225명(97.0%)의 응답이 본 연구의 분석을 위해 이용되었다. 24.2%의 응답자가 "상당히" 또는 "매우 많이", 65.5%의 응답자는 "약간" 또는 "다소" 무등산의 대체장소로서 어등산 이용의도를 나타냈다. 응답자의 10.3%는 어등산을 무등산의 대체장소로서 이용할 의향이 전혀 없는 것으로 조사되었다. 전반적으로 인구사회학적 특성(성별, 연령, 결혼상태, 소득 및 교육수준, 지역거주기간)과 방문행태(방문경험수준, 방문요일)는 무등산도립공원의 대체장소로서 어등산의 이용의사와 관련이 없었다. 단지 '주로 혼자서' 방문하는 응답자는 '그룹' 방문 응답자에 비해 대체장소에 대한 높은 방문의도를 나타냈다. 또한 7개 요인의 방문이유는 대체장소 방문의도의 25.0%를 설명하였으며 이들 중 3개요인 즉 '도전/자기계발(${\beta}=0.35$)', '접근성/친숙성(${\beta}=0.27$)', '모험(${\beta}=-0.19$)'은 P<0.05수준에서 유의성이 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 두 장소 간 장소속성의 유사성은 대체장소 방문의도와 직접적 관계가 없었으며 휴양경험의 유사성은 장소속성의 유사성과 대체장소 방문의도와의 관계에서 완전매개효과를 나타냈다.

Purpose - Generally, the consumer's decision-making process for restaurant selection is simple and familiar. However, online information becomes important because the decision-making process of consumers becomes complicated in new restaurants and special situations. Because consumers can search for information online, information retrieval is now possible in selecting new restaurants. In particular, consumers often make decisions based on online information when making restaurant reservations. Research design, data, and methodology - All items were measured based on previous studies. The data were collected from customers who had visited the store by visiting the web page of the food service franchise within the last 3 months for the panel of the online survey institute. The questionnaires were surveyed from July 2 to July 11, 2018 for about 10 days. A mail and a message were sent to 2,000 people, and 310 people were asked to complete the questionnaire. Total of 303 data were used in the questionnaire, excluding 7 insufficient data. Results - The findings of this study are as follows: Consensus, vividness, and neutrality have positive effects on enjoyment. Consensus have positive effect on anxiety, but vividness and neutrality did not have significant effect on anxiety. Also, enjoyment has a positive influence on intention to visit, and anxiety has a negative influence on visit intention. Conclusions - First, franchise companies online advertising in a variety of ways, but they are mixed with other customers' WOM and offered to consumers. In this case, the information provided by the company may be distorted. Therefore, a restaurant franchise company needs to operate an official online channel to provide accurate information to its customers. Second, it is necessary to make contents so that other customers can participate in online channels of food service franchise companies. Third, food service franchise company should produce enough online contents to experience indirectly even if the customer does not visit the store directly. Fourth, food service franchise company needs to prepare a way for many customers to participate in many official contents.

Promotional videos have been increasingly adopted in social media marketing. Given that video production incurs high costs, evaluating the effectiveness of promotional videos is necessary. This research examines the effect of promotional video on visit intention through affective and cognitive destination images, respectively. Furthermore, grounded in the theoretical reasoning of social ties and persuasive intent, the effects of promotional videos disseminated by different sources (i.e., unknown users, friends, and marketers) are compared. Two experimental studies were carried out with 200 participants in Study 1 and 243 participants in Study 2. Study 1 revealed that the presence of promotional video induces visit intention through affective and cognitive destination images. Study 2 found that promotional videos disseminated by friends (versus unknown users) are more effective to induce visit intention because of positive cognitive destination image, while the video effects are indifferent between marketers and users. Meaningful implications are provided for destination marketers.

This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between the selection attributes and visit motivations of Ningxia wineries and tourist satisfaction and intention to revisit. Utilizing multiple linear regression and simple linear regression models, the study quantitatively analyzed tourists' selection attributes and visit motivations for Ningxia wineries. Factor analysis categorized 12 visit motivation variables into four factors: 'Sensation', 'Educational', 'Companion-Friendly', and 'Experiential'. Additionally, 17 selection attribute variables were classified into four factors: 'Service Quality', 'Environmental', 'Facility', and 'Economic'. Through analyzing the impact of visit motivations on satisfaction and revisit intentions, we have identified the pivotal factors as 'Wine Cultural Education', 'Enhanced Companion-Friendliness', and 'Wine Cultural Experience'. In the analysis of the relationship between selection attributes and revisit intentions, crucial elements involve 'Service Quality provided by the winery"'and 'Environmental of the winery'. Conversely, key influencing revisit intentions include 'Environmental of the winery' and 'Costs and Pricing associated with winery visits'. To ensure the sustainable development of the Ningxia winery industry and promote the enduring growth of rural economies, wineries should place greater emphasis on cultivating wine cultural experiences, artisanal activities, and other project endeavors.

The purpose of this study is to propose, firstly, the definition of marine health tourism and empirically to analyse the effect of benefit sought and brand equity on visit intention of destination as marine health tourism. This study utilizes the PLS-SEM method in order to measure the overall model fitness level and statistical significance of all paths in proposed research model. As a result of the analysis, benefit sought factor like nature has a highest positive effect on brand equity(image and perceived quality) and also, on visit intention via brand equity. Specially, this study measures the non-linear of all the paths and shows the statistical significance that the more high health factor as benefit sought is, the preference for quality brands is more steeply. In addition, the measurement of the moderating effect of gender variables shows that female is the most sensitive than male on the path from health benefit sought to brand quality among all the paths. However, the definition of marine health tourism in this study is proposed according to the characteristics of a particular area. In this vein, the definition is needed to generalize more through follow-up study.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the impacts of gen-Z's perception of consumer-generated content on social media on their travel intention with the mediating role of travel motivation push and pull. An online questionnaire survey of a total of 369 samples was conducted with the participation of gen Z in the most important cities across Vietnam. The model was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using AMOS program 22 to investigate model relationships and all hypotheses are significant. The findings indicated that gen Z values the usefulness of social media and they use social media for knowledge-seeking (push factor), and this leads to their intention to visit a destination. SEM analysis also reveals that gen Z tends to use social media to find accessibility to any destinations and they are motivated highly with destinations that have clear and easy access, for example, no visa requirement or neighboring destinations. As the result, they have better intentions to visit these destinations. This research will help marketers, especially marketing specialists to gain a better understanding of gen Z, thus implement better marketing techniques to target gen Z.
