1 Sungchae Jung Managerial Implications of Korea s International Travel Market Demand Prof. Sungchae Jung, Ph.D. Dept. of Tourism Management, Honam University, Korea 59-1, Seobong-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, Korea scjung@honam.ac.kr Abstract To establish tourism development, policy and the promotion of travel destination, it is necessary to achieve a clear profile of the travel behavior and trends of effective, differed and potential demand. This study attempts to analyze the changing patterns of Korea's inbound and outbound travel demand. The aim of this study is to determine the probability of being tourist as a function of characteristics. In considering the outlook for growth in international travel demand of Korea, it seems to be recognized that the potential markets with continually sustained historical, political, and highly developed economical relationships, other social relationships are still considerable. Proximity and accessibility also are of consideration, as in the case of Asia and America. A more active travel behavior is made by males, pleasure travelers and professors/students groups throughout the geographical district of Asia and America than in other regions. In the point of marketing and political views, specific market segments need to be addressed in marketing by the enlargement and diversification of new markets such as Africa and South America in all segments. Especially, growth of the Oceania and European markets was significant considerable. Although the effectiveness of the tourism benefits of Oceania and African tourism remains doubtful, the phenomenon can be predicted to be bright. The results of this study will provide a valuable resource for tourism practitioners and policy makers, and a set should be available in every tourism management. Keywords- Inbound and Outbound Tourism, Korea, Managerial Implications 1. INTRODUCTION The largest change of both Korea s tourism supply and demand is considerable. The outbound was reached more than ten million in 2005 and the inbound was recorded about 9 million in Until the end of 1950s, tourism, for a small part, contributed to the growth of Korean economy. The one millionth annual visitor arrival was recorded in 1978, two million in 1988, three million in 1991, four million in 1988, and more than five million in visitor in In 2010 the inbound reached about 9 million and outbound was recorded more than 12 million. During 15 years from 1995, the inbound and outbound were increased about 3 times. Under the prediction the high level of annual increases, tourism in Korea has been growing so fast and soared past its 1995 benchmark of 7 million tourists two years early. In the year of 2010, Korean travelers has increased to 12, which was overwhelming increase rate of change. On the other hand Korea is treated as a motor of intraregional travel generator, since the complete liberalization of Korean citizens overseas travel in 1989 it rose 30.3% to 3,154,326, surpassing the 3 million only two years after it reached 2 million. 44
2 Managerial Implications of Korea s International Travel Market Demand The Korean tourism industry has been developing faster than ever while overcoming the economic crisis. This twelve million outbound has a special significance in the international tourism market. It symbolizes the significance of the Korean tourism industry in the comparison of inbound and outbound demand. The increment rates of outbound are very significant. In year 2000, the increment rate of outbound was 85.6 % comparing increment rates of inbound 41.8%. From year 1988, the Korean government relaxed its ban on overseas travel. Now Korea has become a motor for international travel. The number of arrivals was increased steadily, however an unbalanced situation was observed, before and after the Olympic Game double digit growth was experienced and since 1990, the growth rate was decreased. It is implicated that the Olympic game contributed to increase Korean international travel demand. Some other factors which influenced Korean tourism such as designation of Visit Korea Year, extension of visa free status for ese and Chinese tourists(to Jeju Island), designation of Special Tourism Zones are considered. Air Transport Agreement and abolition of some restrictions on the tourism industry was changed the increase demand of international tourism in Korea.

The aim of this study is to determine the probability of being tourist as a function of characteristics. This study examines how Korea's tourism evolves based on the structure of arrivals and departures. It discusses problems and proposes solutions to improve the nation's inbound and outbound tourism standing, and it explains what causes this situation. The analysis will contribute to the establishment of future tourism planning and management. 2. METHODS This study was an empirical investigation, utilizing travelers inbound and outbound data from the annual tourism statistical report, Korean Tourism Organization. The analysis was a two-stage procedure that examined two types of data: 1) the traveler's demographic characteristics of sex, age; 2) travel attributes including destination, travel purpose, and mode of transportation. The difference between the two stages was methodological. The first stage employed methods of frequency using the statistical report of KTO. The comparison analysis was used for the demographic characteristics and travel patterns of the Korea Tourism Organization sub-sample with each of the two other groups of travelers such as arrivals and departures. 3. CHANGING PATTERNS OF DEMAND BY GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARY As can be seen in Table 2, the main demand of inbound and outbound is concentrated in Asia. The rates were developed from 67.8% of inbound and 64.1% of outbound in 1955 to 77.7% of inbound and more about 90% of outbound in Next higher demand of inbound and outbound is accounted in America and Europe. Probably proximity and historical background might be influenced the travel demand. The considerable significant inbound and outbound is appeared in Europe and Oceania. The increase rates were higher than other areas in both inbound and outbound. International Journal of the Computer, the Internet and Management Vol.19. No.2 (May-August, 2011) pp

The increase was appeared in Europe, Oceania and Africa, while Asian and European market declined steadily in the age group of 21, however, under 20 it was concentrated in purpose of travel. Especially the Oceania and European markets increased greatly, but the Asian and American market was decreased.

CONCLUDING REMARKS As a result of rapid growth of economic growth and an increasing amount of disposable income, advanced travel environments were more considerable in the Korean outbound tourism market. Until 1988, the application of pleasure travel was 48
6 Managerial Implications of Korea s International Travel Market Demand limited to people 50 years of age and above in 1983, 40 in 1987, and 30 in The Korean government eliminated all age restrictions in The volume of outbound Korean travelers showed a steady increase during the 1970s, In 1987, outbound travel again began to increase due to the partial liberalization of the Government's travel restrictions. In 1989, following the complete liberalization of Korean overseas travel, outbound travel began to increase remarkably and exceed one million travelers, reaching two million in In 2010, departures rose to 12,488,364. In considering the outlook for growth in Korean travel demand, it seems to be recognized that the potential markets with continually sustained historical, political, and highly developed economical relationships, other social relationships are still considerable. In fact, the discussion of the spatial patterns of outbound and inbound travel from/to Korea showed that they were numerically and spatially concentrated in a few destinations, particularly in Asia and America. Proximity and accessibility also are of considerable in the case of Asia and America. A more active travel behavior is made by males, pleasure travelers and student groups throughout the geographical district of Asia and America than in other regions. In the point of marketing and political views, specific market segments need to be addressed in marketing by the enlargement and diversification of new markets such as Africa and South America in all segments. Especially, growth of Oceania and European markets was significant considerable. Although the effectiveness of the tourism benefits of Oceania and African tourism remains doubtful, the phenomenon can be predicted to be bright. If specifically targeted, it could contribute to the goal of Korean tourism growth. Another perspective on the performance of the Korean tourism industry merges the concentration of special regions in the context of global trends in both inbound and outbound travel. Especially, the performance of the Korean tourism industry is clearly outstanding when judged in terms of tremendous outbound market trends in international travel. In contrast to the trends in the level of international visits to Korea, the growth is relatively descending as can be revealed in the above described results, growth in travel by foreign travelers over the past few years has been somewhat less spectacular, but it is steady. The causes an imbalance of receipts and expenditures in tourism, and extends to serious tourism deficit problems.
