Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between characteristics of online word-of-mouth communication regarding medicinal cuisine on value, satisfaction, loyalty and popularization, as well the interrelationship among them, and ultimately to propose a relationship model. The survey design, empirical analysis, hypothesis examination and model application were found to be suitable. The research results are summarized below. First, regarding the characteristics of online word-of-mouth communication, professionalism and proper timing were found to have a positive influence on value and the satisfaction. Second, the value of medicinal cuisine was found to have a positive effect on satisfaction and popularization, but not on loyalty. Overall, stressing the professionalism and proper timing of online word-of-mouth communication increases the value and customer satisfaction of medicinal cuisine, which in turn increases its popularity. In particular, those interested in increasing the popularity of medicinal cuisine should not only be knowledgeable of it, but also post accurate information that details each dishes unique traits and how to properly manage ingredients and cooking methods.

본 연구는 온라인 구전커뮤니케이션 특성(전문성, 적시성, 정확성)이 약선 음식에 대한 가치, 만족, 애호도, 대중화 간에 어느 정도의 영향관계가 있는 지를 알아보고, 온라인을 통한 약선 음식 대중화에 기여하고자 하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 먼저, 약선 음식 온라인 구전 커뮤니케이션 특성 중 전문성, 적시성이 약선 음식 가치와 만족에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 약선 음식 가치는 만족, 대중화에는 영향을 미쳤고, 애호도는 대중화에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 종합해 보면 약선 음식에 대한 온라인 구전 커뮤니케이션의 전문성과 적시성이 강조될 때 가치와 만족에 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 판단되며, 가치 있는 정보야말로 고객이 만족하고 애호도가 높아짐으로써 대중화가 이루어질 수 있다고 판단된다. 특히 약선 음식 조리인이 식자재의 성질과 음용방법을 잘 알고 있어야 함으로, 블로그 운영자들이나 약선 음식 전문점에서는 약선 음식 대한 내용을 게시할 때 식재료의 효능에 대한 전문적인 내용을 기술하여야만 대중화가 이루어질 것이라 사료되며, 향후 건강한 식생활을 정착하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 약선에 대한 전문적인 지식에 대한 다양한 교육과 홍보 및 적극적인 관심이 요구된다고 판단된다. 특히 본 연구 결과, 음식의 기능을 살린 약선 음식 전문적인 내용은 온라인 구전으로 인하여 소비자들로 하여금 약선에 대한 정보를 좀 더 정확하게 알 수 있을 것이며, 건강에 대한 생각과 함께 대중에게 널리 알려질 것이라 여겨진다. 이상의 연구의 요약 및 결과에서 이미 제시되어 있는 바와 같이 본 연구에 적용되고 있는 투입변수들 간의 상관관계는 매우 높은 것으로 분석되어졌다.
