¡¡In today s society, there is no escaping sports. Operating through an¡¡entertainment perspective and other media formats, sports have undergone major¡¡changes in fundamental characteristics, such as rules of play, style of play,
stadium theatrics, economic structure, media markets, and hero construction.
¡¡In this context, the purpose of this thesis is to make a analysis of the¡¡behavior & result of Sport s Communication through media report in korean¡¡industry s sports sponsoring. And the final aim of this thesis is to present¡¡inevitability of scientific research by establishment of disciplinary concept and¡¡boundary in Sports Communication.
¡¡In order to achieve this purpose, these questions are selected and asked as¡¡follows;
1. What is the motivation of business make use of media & sport as a¡¡marketing strategic tool?
2. How developed into the marketing activity of business through sports &¡¡media report, and what is the effect?
3. How expose the sports sponsoring activity of korean business to media?
4. What is the effect of sports sponsoring activity to conumer¡¡s¡¡ recognition?
¡¡To examine this research question, I rely on literature inquiry of phenomenon,¡¡that is, various books, research papers, internet data, etc. To examine koreansituation, I carried out an investigation according to three levels; depth
interview, content analysis of newspaper, and consumer survey.
¡¡As a result of literature inquiry, Sports Communicat ion shape a Sports -Media¡¡- Business symbiosis relations into the eternal triangle. Especially,¡¡today¡¡s sports marketing is a high- value added commodity produced by media¡¡value.
¡¡Corporate sponsorship of sport has received little academic attention, and what¡¡has occured has tended to occur after the practice. Consequently, much research¡¡has tended to examine awareness as an individual phenomenon, rather than as¡¡the antecedent to an effect. In spite of this, sponsorship is the provision of¡¡resources ¡¡eg., money, people, equipment¡¡by an organization the sponsor¡¡directly to an individual, authoriy or body the sponsee£¬to enable the latter to¡¡pursue some activity in return for benefits contemplated in terms of the¡¡sponsor¡¡s¡¡ promotion strategy, and which can be expressed in terms of corporate,¡¡marketing, or media objectives. Sponsorship of sport has become an integral part¡¡of the marketing mix of the corporate world with corporations devoting large¡¡amounts of money to associate themselves with sport and¡¡or its particular¡¡identity.
¡¡And as a result of actual investigation, it is understood korean business¡¡s¡¡Sports Communication activity and media report has a little effect to conumer¡¡s¡¡recognition.
¡¡¡¡I verified a three hypotheses. In concrete terms, hypothesis 1. £§A¡¡business¡¡will pursuit positively sports sponsoring activity through media report£§. was¡¡proved in a theoritical level, hypothesis 2. A media will expose sports
sponsoring activity of business. was rejected, hypothesis 3. £§A sports¡¡sponsoring activity will be change a consumer s recognition£§. was verified¡¡partially.¡¡
¡¡On the basis of above investigation and discussion, an investigator propose a¡¡plan which is active Sports Communication in korean industry.
¡¡What is most important in sports marketing is not how much spend in sports¡¡marketing but how sponsor sport. A business communication have to execute all¡¡marketing action under the category of total IMC, because sports sponsoring¡¡form a part of marketing mix.
¡¡Finally, it is necessary for Sports Communication study¡¡the study of sports¡¡marketing, especially in korea, is still in its infancy.¡¡to take many approach¡¡method based on interdisciplinary study of physical, sociology, communication,
etc., therefore we must develop the total concept of Sports Communication.
