About the Lab

Professor Hyun-Chul Kim's research lab focuses on strategic sourcing, supply chain management, and institutional dynamics in business markets, with a particular emphasis on OEM-supplier relationships, two-sided sourcing behaviors, and the impact of organizational performance. The lab also explores socio-spatial phenomena, especially queer urbanism and sexual dissidence in urban spaces, analyzing how marginalized identities challenge normative spatial orders through performative resistance. Additionally, the lab investigates regulatory frameworks in financial sectors and the strategic capabilities of firms, such as Toyota’s marketing and sales power, in evolving market conditions. The research integrates institutional, behavioral, and spatial perspectives to address complex challenges in industrial organization and urban governance.

Search for Alternatives and Collaboration with Incumbents: Two‐Sided Sourcing Behavior in Business Markets*
Stephen Keysuk Kim, Tetsuya Yamada, Hyunchul Kim
SJR Q1Decision Sciences

ABSTRACT Sourcing strategies in business markets have been considered separately and the practice of two‐sided sourcing behavior—engaging in search for alternative suppliers and collaboration with an incumbent supplier—has not been examined. To fill that gap, we first identify boundary conditions under which the poor performance of an incumbent supplier intensifies an original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) search and collaboration. Then, we examine how an OEM's two‐sided sourcing behavior influ

성적 반체제자와 도시공간의 공공성 : 2014 신촌 퀴어퍼레이드를 중심으로
김현철
공간과 사회

본 논문은 국내의 도시권리 담론에서 섹슈얼리티 관점이 부재했다는 점에 주목하여 기존 공간학계가 성적 반체제자(sexual dissidents)와 성애화된 도시공간(sexualized urban space)을 공론장에서 배제해왔음을 주장한다. 이에 필자는 도시 권리 담론을 더욱 풍요롭게 진행해나가기 위해서는 자본주의적 공간질서와 더불어 이성애 정상가족 규범적 공간체계 역시 예민하게 분석해야 한다고 언급하면서 2014 신촌 퀴어퍼레이드를 행위자적 측면에서 분석한다. 2014 신촌 퀴어퍼레이드의 참여자들은 패러디와 ‘되기’로의 수행, 작품적 걷기와 같은 행위를 통하여 이성애 정상가족 규범적인 도시공간의 공공성에 저항하고 균열을 낳으려 했다. 이는 르페브르가 언급한 작품으로서의 도시를 누릴 권리와 연관되며, 또한 그의 창발적 전유와도 연관된다. 퍼레이드 지지자들의 작품적 수행을 통해 2014 신촌 퀴어퍼레이드는 기존의 이성애 정상가족 규범적인 공공공간이 지니는 배제와 폐쇄성을 언급하였으며,

A new scheme for improving performance of TCP over network including wireless links
Hyunchul Kim, Myong-Soon Park

With the proliferation of mobile and wireless computing devices, the demand for continuous network connectivity exists for various wired-and-wireless-integrated networks. Since TCP is the standard network protocol stack for communication on the Internet, its use over the networks is a certainty because it allows seamless integration with the fixed infrastructure. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) assumes a relatively reliable underlying where most packet losses are due to congestion. In a wire

What Forms and Reforms Banking Regulations? A Cross-National Study
Hyunchul Kim, Minsoo Park, Hyunduk Suh
SJR Q1Emerging Markets Finance and Trade

:We examine the determinants of regulatory frameworks in the banking sector using an extensive data set of regulations of more than 180 countries. In contrast with previous studies, we analyze multiple aspects of regulations independently in terms of their objects and functions, controlling for political and economic conditions that might affect regulatory structures. We find that each dimension of regulations is determined by different factors, and the incentives for the formulation of regulati

한국 편의점의 성숙기 대응전략
김현철

성숙기를 맞아 2000년부터 5년 연속 기존점 매출이 줄어들고 있는 일본의 편의점 업계에 큰 사태가 발생하였다. 일부 가맹점의 할인판매를 저지한 7-Eleven Japan에 대하여 일본의 공정거래위원회가 배제조치명령을 내렸고, 이를 계기로 일부 가맹점 점주들이 조합을 결성 하여 집단적으로 편의점 본부와 대립하는 양상을 보이기 시작하였다. 이 문제의 발단은 패스트푸드에 대한 할인판매였지만 그 이면에는 패스트푸드의 폐기손 실의 분담 문제가 있었다. 그러나 폐기손실의 분담 문제를 보다 역사적으로 추적해 가면 매 출이익을 본부와 가맹점주가 함께 나누어 갖는 이익분배 방식의 로열티 시스템과 공존공영 을 기반으로 본부와 가맹점주가 함께 노력하는 프랜차이즈 시스템이 존재하고 있는 것이다. 성숙기에 발생한 일본의 편의점 사태는 5년 이내에 성숙기에 진입할 것으로 예측되는 한 국의 편의점 업계에 많은 시사점을 제공해 주고 있다. 첫 번째는 현재의 성장기에 추진하고 있는 적극적인 출점이 성숙기에 가서

Early adopters of new supermarket products
Brian M. Adams, Hyunchul Kim
SJR Q3Applied Economics Letters

New goods and expanding product variety are thought to provide enormous welfare gains. New products can influence the pricing of competing products, but often the most important way that new products improve the welfare is through their direct consumption value. The demographic profile of the buyers of new goods suggests those welfare gains are unequally distributed. For supermarket products in the US, expenditures on new goods are disproportionately concentrated among high earners and younger c

The effect of product variety in multiproduct retail pricing: the case of supermarkets
Hyunchul Kim, Jungwon Yeo
SJR Q2Applied Economics

The search literature offers several explanations as to how a multiproduct retailer’s offering of a larger variety may affect consumers’ search behaviour and hence prices. Among them are (1) higher sales to be generated when lower prices discourage consumers’ further search; and (2) more pricing power due to improved consumer expectations about consumer-product match valuations. The former concerns independent categories and derives a negative relationship while the latter concerns substitutes w
