우리나라 온라인 저널리즘 지형의 과거, 현재, 미래는 무엇보다 포털 뉴스서비스와 밀접한 연관이 있다. 전통 저널리즘에서 한정된 뉴스미디어는 뉴스 생산과 유통을 동시에 수행하기 때문에 소비를 완전히 장악할 수 있었다. 이후 다매체다채널 시대에는 뉴스미디어가 큰 폭으로 증가하고 이에 따라 뉴스 생산이 폭발적으로 늘어나면서 수용자의 선택이 중요하게 됐다. 온라인 저널리즘 환경에서는 각종 뉴스 이용을 간편하게 만든 포털 뉴스서비스에 대한 이용의 집중, 뉴스미디어 브랜드보다는 뉴스 콘텐츠에 집중하는 뉴스 소비의 특성 등으로 인해 뉴스 유통이 가장 중요한 영역으로 부각됐다. 포털 뉴스서비스가 온라인 저널리즘의 상징적 존재가 되면서 뉴스 유통 중심의 우리나라 저널리즘 지형이 완성된 것이다. 뉴스 유통만을 담당하는 포털 뉴스서비스가 뉴스를 생산하는 언론사닷컴이나 인터넷신문보다 더 큰 영향력을 가진다는 것은 언론 권력의 변화를 의미한다. 이로 인해 기존 뉴스미디어와 포털 뉴스서비스의 갈등이 곳곳에서 목격된다.

Purpose: BTS Meal at McDonald's was launched in May 2021 in selected countries all over the world. BTS fans in Indonesia bought the BTS Meal and collectively donated to the online delivery drivers as a form of empathy. As a quantitative study, this paper aims to identify the influencing factors in sociopsychology for fans to buy products (BTS Meal) available online using celebrity endorsement strategy, as well as demonstrating social empathy as an extended effect. Research design, data and methodology: empirical research was conducted through an online survey sent to 150 participants using the purposive sampling method. Participants were BTS fans, or ARMYs, who bought BTS Meal and conducted donations. Data were then sorted and processed with path regression. Results: preference and role model influenced the buying behavior; however, these factors influenced social empathy only when mediated by consumption. Preference and role model alone did not have a direct influence on social empathy. Conclusions: Consumer behavior insight is relevant in distribution science. A meal distribution involving brand ambassadors is considerable, particularly with celebrities demonstrating quality in capturing fans' hearts through role modeling. When a distribution is conducted online using a brand ambassador, buying behavior could lead to a social impact.

The sample size was 195 respondents from the distribution and service industries by applying a purposive sampling technique. The data collection technique employed a questionnaire distributed online according to predetermined criteria: mobile device users who accessed the online market board application and made at least one purchase in the last six months. The data analysis method utilized was structural equation modeling (SEM). Results: The findings revealed that usability, functionality, and sociability factors affected hedonic and utilitarian search. Furthermore, these findings proved that hedonic search affected impulse buying drives. In contrast, the utilitarian search did not affect impulse buying drives. Conclusions: The usability, functionality, and sociability factors supported hedonic and utilitarian searches. Consumer information security increased consumer confidence in an online store because it was considered to protect matters related to their privacy. The hedonic search also increased impulse buying drives. Consumers prefer to use their spare time to search through online market board applications, which provide many attractive promos.

Purpose: Online meeting is chosen instead of face-to-face conferences as a solution that ensures both effectiveness and legality during times of strong epidemic outbreaks. In the current period, managers can have different types of meeting options for information distribution. This study has examined the effect of past behavior on the managers' intention of organizing online meetings. Research design, data and methodology: Data were collected from a survey with 475 managers and put into SmartPLS 4.0 for analysis. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to test relationships in the research model. Results: The findings indicated that past behavior plays the most critical role in explaining the organizing online meeting intention of managers, followed by attitude and subjective norms. Meanwhile, the perceived behavioral control factor has absolutely no effect on intention in the context of this study. Notably, attitude and subjective norms also remarkably mediated the impact of past behavior on managers' intention. Conclusions: This study has added to the understanding of the meeting organization behavior of managers. Even if the epidemic is under control, the administrators should still organize some meetings in the form of online because it will affect the social perceptions of future behavior and behavioral intention.

본 연구는 그동안의 공동체 미디어 실천연구들이 전통적 방식의 지상파(전파) 방송에 국한되어 온 것에 대한 문제의식에서 출발하였다. 기존연구들에서 소홀하게 다루어진 온라인 기반 위에서 실천되고 있는 지역 공동체 미디어의 특성과 콘텐츠 제작 및 유통의 특성을 규명하고자 대덕밸리라디오의 사례를 분석하여 다음과 같은 연구결과와 시사점을 얻을 수 있었다. 첫째, 온라인 공동체 미디어 활동은 지역 공동체의 가치를 담아내는 시민미디어(civic/citizen media) 활동이다. 둘째, 미디어 콘텐츠 제작과 유통전략에 따라 퍼블릭 액세스(Public Access)를 통하지 않고도 공동체의 지역성을 실현하는 효과적인 매체 활용을 할 수 있다. 셋째, 온라인 미디어의 콘텐츠는 공동체를 연결하며 개인이 연결점(node)이 되어 온라인과 오프라인에서 상호작용한다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 온라인 기반 공동체 미디어 실천은 시민들의 미디어 활동의 지속 가능성을 높일 수 있는 틈새(니치) 미디어로서 기능할 수 있다는 것을 밝힐 수 있었다.

Purpose: The Covid-19 pandemic has triggered several herd purchase behaviors, and online shopping has been considered a health-related preventative behavior. Thisstudy aimsto the relative impact of health threat beliefs concerning Covid-19 (perceived susceptibility and perceived severity) and herd mentality on consumers' online shopping post-adoption disconfirmation and continuance intention of online shopping. Research design, data and methodology: An internet survey was conducted with Vietnamese consumers, and upon screening, usable data of 292 responses were analyzed using PLS-SEM. Results showed that while herd mentality positively affects disconfirmation, health threat beliefs including perceived susceptibility and perceived severity of Covid-19 do not. Results: Results also provided further support for the notion that disconfirmation is a crucial determinant of post-adoption continuance intention. Moreover, herd mentality also has a significantly negative influence on online shopping post-adoption continuance intention. Conclusions: The research provides evidence supporting the role of herd mentality and post-adoption disconfirmation in driving consumers' intention to continue online shopping. However, the research shows that neither the perceived susceptibility of Covid-19 nor the perceived severity of Covid-19 has significant impact on post-adoption disconfirmation, adding mixed evidence to the application of health belief theory in technology (such as online shopping) adoption.
