We develop a smart tourism information system that provides smart tourism services to free independent tourists (FITs) through various content distribution channels such as mobile apps, Instagram, YouTube, and chatbots. The smart tourism information system provides location and storytelling-based tourism information, accommodation, restaurant information, and recommended travel products so that tourists can create a travel itinerary based on personalized situation awareness. The smart tourism information system also provides smart tourism services using commercial maps, navigation, and weather forecast APIs from the Korea Meteorological Administration to provide smart tour guide services to tourists who travel according to the travel itinerary. In this paper, we develop the React Native app that provides smart tourism services provided by the smart tourism information system. The smart tourism React Native app has implemented two methods: a method that directly connects to the smart tourism information system, and a method that provides services by interworking through the GraphQL Query Language developed by META (Facebook). The smart tourism React Native app implements OSMU (One Source Multi-use) by providing tourism information from mobile apps, photos from Instagram, and drone videos from YouTube as an integrated UI.

Nepal is a sensitive and disaster-prone country where safety and security risk are of high concern for travelers. Digital technologies can play a vital role in addressing safety and security issues in the country. This research work proposes a Digital tourism security system design for addressing the safety and security issues in tourism industry of Nepal. The study uses Design science research methodology to identify artifacts, interactions, information flow and dependencies between them which are then mapped with existing prevalent technology to provide design solutions. Data is obtained from interview of tourist and experts as a primary source and technical documents/draft, software documentations, surveys as secondary source. Generalized information model, Use cases model, Network architecture model, Layered taxonomy model and Digital tourism technology reference model are the outcomes of the study. The work is very important as it talks specifically about implementation and integration of digital technologies in tourism security governance at federal, provincial, municipal and rural level. The research supplements as a knowledge document for design and implementation of digital tourism security system in practice. As there is very less work on digital systems in tourism security of Nepal, this work is a pioneer and first of its kind.

Meeting, Incentive travel, Convention, Exhibition (MICE) industries recently introduced new information systems, such as the exhibition guide system (EGS), to keep pace with Smart MICE and maximize the effect of exhibition performance. We investigate how persuasive EGS can affect the EGS acceptance of attendees via cognitive and affective response. We analyzed data from 442 EGS users at an exhibition. We found that information accuracy, information relevance, and source credibility were predictors of cognitive response. Source credibility had a significant effect on affective response. Furthermore, cognitive response was found to be a positive predictor of affective response and EGS acceptance. We also found affective response is a predictor of EGS acceptance. The theoretical and practical implications of the study were presented based on the results.

The objective of this study was to investigate the necessity of rural tourism education in the Korea National Agricultural College and suggest the educational plan. Recently, the Korean government proposes the rural tourism as an alternative plan for solving the problems of agriculture and rural community that experience difficulty by the opening of agricultural market and the falling price, etc. As result of investigation of cases of OECD nations and the growth rate of tourism market in Korea, it has been determined that the demand of rural tourism was sufficient. The Ministry of Agriculture & Forestry makes a goal of attracting the yearly 150million tourists by 2013 to the rural communities. Rural tourism can be new income source in the rural communities in Korea. It is important to develop the resources in the rural amenity and promote the tourism leader group with it that will be applicable in the field in order that this rural tourism may take its place as main source of income. As a result of research, on the characteristics of the Korea National Agricultural College that the demand of manpower about the rural tourism and the most of students settled down on the rural community after their graduation, it has been determined that the education for rural tourism leaders in the Korea National Agricultural College would authenticate the validity. Also, it suggested the educational plan by the curriculum for the education for the rural tourism leaders, and suggested the necessity of the establishment of the department of rural tourism. The establishment of the department of rural tourism in the Korea National Agricultural College should be investigated and determined carefully through the relations with the other departments and the process of collecting the public opinions within and outside schools, etc.

본 논문에서는 관광의 1차적인 정보원으로서의 홈페이지와 관광홍보물의 언어학적 전환의 특징을 살펴보고자 한다. 즉 관광관련 사이트의 한국어 원문과 영어 번역물을 비교하면서 관광정보 텍스트가 올바르게 언어전환 되었는지 점검하고 나아가 전환된 영어번역물과 한국어 원문을 대조하면서 번역물에서 발생하는 언어규약과 의사소통의 특징을 살펴본다. 특히 한국어와 영어는 언어유형에서 대조적인 언어로서 번역을 통해 전환되었을 때 특이한 담화의 양상을 보인다. 즉 한국어에 비해 영어표현은 직설적이고 우회적인 표현을 피하는 경향이 있다. 또한 영어번역본에서는 영어 화자위주로 언어가 변형되어 표현됨을 주시할 수 있다. 이것은 영어를 사용하는 언어군에서 흔히 발생하는 양상으로 광의의 문화간의 차이로 간주될 수 있다. 따라서 외국관광객의 1차적 정보원으로서의 관광웹사이트는 관광정보를 제공하는 동시에 목적지의 문화를 간접적인 형태로 표현함으로써 사회적 이미지 형성과 문화간 차이를 대변하며 커뮤니케이션의 일환으로서 공손의 원칙과 Grice의 원칙을 준수하고 있다.

A smart tourism chatbot is needed as a user interface to efficiently provide smart tourism services such as recommended travel products, tourist information, my travel itinerary, and tour guide service to tourists. We have been developed a smart tourism app and a smart tourism information system that provide smart tourism services to tourists. We also developed a smart tourism chatbot service consisting of khaiii morpheme analyzer, rule-based intention classification, and tourism information knowledge base using Neo4j graph database. In this paper, we develop the Korean and English smart tourism Name Entity (NE) datasets required for the development of the NER model using the pre-trained language models (PLMs) for the smart tourism chatbot system. We create the tourism information NER datasets by collecting source data through smart tourism app, visitJeju web of Jeju Tourism Organization (JTO), and web search, and preprocessing it using Korean and English tourism information Name Entity dictionaries. We perform training on the KoBERT-CRF NER model using the developed Korean and English tourism information NER datasets. The weight-averaged precision, recall, and f1 scores are 0.94, 0.92 and 0.94 on Korean and English tourism information NER datasets.
