Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand the influence of Chinese customer coffee sought benefits on satisfaction with, and attachment and loyalty to Korean coffee shops. Based on a total of 200 samples obtained for empirical research from 10 Mar. to 25 July, 2015, of self-administrated questionaries completed by patrons in Beijing, Shanghai, Haerbin in China, data were analyzed for frequency, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, multiple regression and hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, it was found that Chinese customer sought pursuits (functional & experimental benefits, symbolic benefit) had an effect on satisfaction of Korea coffee shop. Second, satisfaction influenced Korean coffee shop attachment and loyalty. Third, Korean wave attitude had a mediating effect between satisfaction, attachment and loyalty. From the results, we can conclude following implications: First, by providing atmosphere of South Korea, menu, barista service, we can predict that Korean coffee brands can prevail in competition through active promotions of their brands. Second, Korean coffee brands can make a strategy that includes providing full service from trained South Korean baristas and hosting talk shows between baristas from South Korea. Third, providing the opportunity to visit South Korea for local cafe tours is a good social event. These results will help control marketing strategies in China. Limitations and future research directions are also discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 중국소비자의 커피제품 추구 편익이 한국 커피전문점 만족도와 애착 및 충성도에 미치는 영향과 한류태도의 매개 효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 설문지는 2015년 3월 10일부터 6월 25일까지 중국 베이징, 상하이, 하얼빈 3개 도시에서 한국 커피전문점을 이용한 경험이 있는 고객을 대상으로 하였고, 280부 배부, 213부 회수, 200부를 분석에 이용하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 가설 1의 경우, 추구편익(기능 및 경험적 편익, 상징적 편익)은 한국 커피전문점 만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 둘째, 가설 2는 한국 커피전문점 만족은 한류태도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 셋째, 가설 3과 4는 중국소비자의 한류태도가 한국 커피전문점 애착과 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 넷째, 중국소비자의 한류태도는 한국 커피전문점 만족과 한국 커피전문점 애착 및 충성도 간에 매개 역할을 하는 것으로 나타나 채택되었다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 다음과 같은 시사점을 얻을 수 있다. 첫째, 매장에 들어서면서부터 드라마에서 보았던 한국의 분위기를 느낄 수 있도록 하는 인테리어, 한국의 맛을 느낄 수 있도록 하는 메뉴 구성, 교육을 통한 친절한 한국식 바리스타의 서비스 등을 경험하게 하는 것이 필요하다. 또한, 한국드라마 PPL 등을 활용한 적극적인 홍보를 펼친다면 경쟁 우위를 구축할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 둘째, 한국인 바리스타가 직접 커피를 만들어 서비스를 한다든지, 유명 바리스타들과 중국인 바리스타들 간의 커피 토크 콘서트 등을 개최하여 브랜드의 우수성을 알리는 것도 좋은 전략이다. 셋째, 홈페이지나 SNS를 통해 한국의 커피전문점을 방문해 볼 수 있는 이벤트를 기획하는 것이다. 본 연구를 통해 중국으로 진출하는 커피전문점 기업뿐만 아니라, 개인 커피전문점 경영자들이 중국 소비자들의 커피 제품에 대한 편익 속성을 정확히 인지하여 적합한 STP 전략을 구축하고, 한류를 활용하여 글로벌 기업과의 경쟁 속에서 지속적인 경쟁우위를 차지하는데 기여하고자 한다.
