Purpose - Due to the recent slowdown of growth in global luxury brands, which have been an engine of our domestic fashion market growth, there is an increasing need to develop a global market for domestic high-priced fashion brands. In spite of the large scale of trade between Korea and China with respect to fashion products, current trade concentrates on middle- and low-priced products rather than high-priced products. Diversification of the trade between Korea and China in terms of the price levels of trade products is needed. An understanding of Chinese consumption values and purchase intentions for luxury fashion brands will be very helpful for the establishment of strategies with the aim of increasing the level of trade with regard to high-priced fashion products. Therefore, the study aimed to identify the differences in the clothing consumption values of South Korean and Chinese women in their 20s, especially with reference to how those values affect their preference and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. Research design, data, methodology - The study was implemented through a descriptive survey method using a self-administered questionnaire. The sample consisted of 283 Korean and 306 Chinese women in their 20s, residing in Seoul, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shanghai. Data were collected from March 3 to 15, 2014. A total of 589 completed responses were analyzed. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, t-test, and multiple regression analysis. Results - Fivefactors for clothing consumption values were formulated: conspicuous/social value, fashionability value, personality expression value, hedonic value, and practical value. There were significant differences between Korean and Chinese consumers in clothing consumption values (except social value), preference, and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. With regard to clothing consumption values, Chinese women attached more importance to fashionability value, personality expression value, hedonic value, and practical value than South Korean women. In addition, Chinese women's preference and purchase intention for luxury fashion brands were higher than South Korean women's. Second, in the case of South Korean women, social value, practical value, and fashionability value had positive effects on preferences for luxury fashion brands, while attractive/personality expression value and hedonic value had no influence. In contrast, in the case of Chinese women, social value and fashionability value had positive effects on preference for the luxury fashion brands. Third, in the case of South Korean women, social value and practical value had positive effects on purchase intentions for luxury fashion brands. In contrast, in the case of Chinese women, social value, personality expression value, and fashionability value had positive effects on purchase intention for luxury fashion brands. Conclusions - Considering the findings of the study, it is clear that differentiated marketing strategies are needed for luxury fashion brand markets in Korea and China. The results of the study could provide useful information that will help increase the effectiveness of luxury fashion brand marketing strategies in Korea and China.

본 연구는 스토리텔링을 이용한 명품 브랜드의 미학적인 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션 사례를 통해 브랜드의 차별화된 마케팅 기법으로 아티스트와 아트를 통한 효과적인 아트마케팅을 제시하였다. 이러한 아트를 활용하는 데는 브랜드의 이미지를 품격 있고 미학적으로 보여주어 매출 증대뿐 아니라 고객의 충성도를 높이는데 그 이유가 있다. 브랜드가 가지고 있는 욕망의 주체는 스토리가 그 역할을 한다. 명품 브랜드 소비자는 브랜드 품질의 우수성, 최상의 서비스, 브랜드 고 품격 가치와 더불어 브랜드에 담긴 스토리를 소비하려고 하는 것이다. 그러한 스토리는 예술과 만나 특별함을 더 하고 브랜드 영역까지 확장하게 하는 아트마케팅 전략 중 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션을 하고 있다. 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션 도구로 아트콜라보레이션, 아트전시회, 이동식 건축물 프로젝트, 아트 광고, 플래그십 스토어, 인재 양성연구소가 활용되었으며 브랜드의 욕망 스토리를 기본으로 스토리텔링의 구성요소와 원칙을 기본으로 선정되었다. 브랜드의 이미지를 시각적으로 상징화하고 입체적으로 보여주어 소비자와 감성적으로 소통하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 스토리텔링을 통한 명품 브랜드의 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션 사례를 통해 브랜드와 예술가의 인지도 관계성에 따른 전략과 특징을 통해 브랜드의 이미지에 미치는 효과적인 아트마케팅 역할을 살펴보고자 하였다. 사례를 통한 결과에 따르면 명품 브랜드가 브랜드 정체성과 스토리에 맞는 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션 도구를 활용하여 효과적인 사례를 보여주었으며, 예술을 통한 아트 마케팅의 가능성을 다양한 각도로 보여주었다. 사례결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 소비자는 공감하는 스토리가 있는 브랜드를 선택하는 것으로 나타났다. 세계적으로 성공한 명품브랜드들은 이미 우리 사회가 갖고 있는 멋진 이야기에 대한 욕구를 간파하고 있으며 이들은 정보 이외에도 소비자를 즐겁게 해주는 능력을 발휘하고 있다. 앞으로의 시장은 제품이 담아내는 이야기가 바로 경쟁력이 될 것이다. 둘째, 스토리와 연계된 아트를 활용한 아트 마케팅커뮤니케이션은 브랜드 차별화를 시킨 것으로 나타났다. 가장 효과적인 아트마케팅커뮤니케이션으로 아트콜라보레이션, 아트 전시회, 이동식 건축물 프로젝트 등 다양한 도구로 활발하게 적용되고 있다. 셋째, 브랜드의 제품이 예술작품처럼 인식되어 충성도를 높였을 뿐 아니라 매출이 증대되고, 프리미엄 된 가격을 유지할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 브랜드의 전통성에 예술을 접목한 혁신과 창조성이 있는 새로운 제품을 통해 소비자에게 특별한 만족을 제공하고 제품이 한정판으로 제작되어 시리즈별로 수집하는 소비자가 아닌 컬렉터를 창출한다. 넷째, 본 연구의 결과요약과 시사점, 그리고 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다. 명품브랜드에 적용된 사례를 참고하여 국내 브랜드 환경을 고려한 효과적인 아트마케팅 전략을 제시할 수 있으며 이미 진행되고 있는 국내 브랜드의 아트마케팅 전략의 사례와 효과를 연구해 볼 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

This study identified the characteristics of the subculture aspects that led to the success of luxury brands and analyzed the implications of those aspects. For this, semantic analysis in a socio-cultural context was performed. Additionally, this study took the theoretical background, the change in subculture and post-subculture, the digital youth generation, and the change in the meaning of subculture style into consideration. The subculture style aspect and its meaning in luxury fashion brands were analyzed as follows: First, there are challenges that betray the legitimacy or values of luxury brands. Through this, the brand gained recognition and increased sales, and the designer gained a reputation as an innovative creative director. It can be seen that more successful branding was promoted by securing a more subcultured fandom. Second, by combining subculture image fragments, these brands cater to the diverse tastes of a myriad of subcultures. This maximizes commercial profits. Third, most promotional marketing activities are collaborative and done digitally, which allows for a wider customer base, but the difference is in digital capabilities. Limited editions or application use on social networks can act as another driver. It is said that the distinction in high-priced luxury brands is not only driven by economic power but also by sub-cultural capital and digital ability.
