In a rapidly growing digital economic environment, NFT has emerged as a hot topic in the art field. However, in China, NFT art is developing slowly due to constraints related to China's political economy and socio-cultural situation. Due to strict management and control, the circulation of cryptocurrency is limited, and the level of public awareness and acceptance of NFT art and market maturity are still low. Despite these limitations, this paper predicts that Chinese art creators and market participants can build an online personal art IP model that suits the characteristics of the Chinese market and explores the current status and possibilities.

With regard to conventional theory, the rate of profit is determined by the interaction between the rate of surplus value and the organic composition of capital. And it declines with the capitalistic development through intensifying the organic composition of capital. According to the empirical test, the rate of profit and the rate of surplus value have been decreased. On the contrary, the organic composition of capital have increased during the period under study. The empirical results of the rate of profit in Korean economy appears to hold the principle of the law of the tendency of the rate of profit to fall. But the trend of the determinants is distinct from the conventional theory. Despite the distinctive empirical results, the law of the tendency of the rate of profit to fall is realized in Korean economy in objective period of time.

The authors of the article investigate the impact of digitalization on the forms change of employment and the labor market in the modern conditions. It is substantiated that digitalization processes directly affect the change of forms of employment and the range of occupations in the labor market, as well as the change of jobs. The positive and negative consequences of changing forms of employment for the economy in the process of digital transformation are analyzed, which include: reduction of personnel costs by employers; dissemination of non-standard, informal employment (electronic freelance, electronic outsourcing, start-employment); enabling employees to manage their working hours; increasing unemployment and imbalance of supply and demand in the labor market; reduction of productivity of enterprises, as a result of reduced productivity of workers with non-standard forms of employment, or with a negative indirect impact on productivity. A model for managing the process of digitalization in the labor market of Ukraine under different scenarios of their implementation, namely evolutionary and forced is devoted. To recognize the possible change in the level of employment in connection with the implementation of the forced scenario of digitalization in Ukraine, a model for estimating probable changes in the labor market is proposed.

This study analyzes life experiences and prospects of poverty/welfare exit of the poor with work ability utilizing Mixed methodology. Based on Sequential Exploratory Design, it qualitatively analyzes 3 waves of qualitative panel data linked to Korea Welfare Panel Study(KWPS) and presents life changes of 14 poor in the context of their prospects of welfare/poverty exit. Then it proposes hypotheses on the role of education, household economy expectation, self-esteem in the prospects of poverty/welfare exit following the sequential exploratory design to quantitatively test qualitative findings utilizing KWPS(7th). The outcomes of the Structural Equation Model(SEM) suggest that household economy expectation plays mediating role between education and the prospects of welfare/poverty exit. This implies that anti-poverty policy needs to consider a psychological approach to enhance household economy expectations of the poor as well as other material support.

In recent years, Korean consumption trends have undergone rapid changes. Also, subscription economy has emerged and is growing as a new shopping method. The purpose of this study was to verify the relationship between consumer attitude and intention to continue to use of the consumption value of subscription service based on subscription economy. To this end, we analyzed the structural equation modeling for 300 consumers who used HMR products through subscription services. The analysis results are as follows. First, consumption value (functional, emotional, social and monetary) of HMR products perceived by subscribers had a significantly positive effect on consumer attitude except for monetary value. Second, consumer attitude was found to have a positive effect on consumers' intention to continue to use. This study contributes to the development of academic theories related to the subscription service in the early stages and provides managerial implications for HMR-related companies that want to utilize subscription service.
