This study aims to analyze the influence of promotions with Korean celebrities on the purchase intention of local skincare products using the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) approach and source credibility theory. The celebrity aspects tested include attractiveness, social media influence, and credibility. Furthermore, this study also analyzes the role of mediating variables such as trustworthiness and perceived quality. The research object focuses on local skincare products that use Korean celebrities as brand ambassadors.
This study applies a quantitative approach through a survey of 282 Generation Z respondents aged 18–28 years who are active users of social media and are aware of local skincare product promotions that use Korean celebrities as brand ambassadors. Hypothesis testing was conducted using the PLS-SEM method through SmartPLS software. The results show that all proposed hypotheses have a positive effect. Celebrity attractiveness, social media influence, and celebrity credibility had a significant positive effect on trustworthiness. However, trustworthiness was shown to increase perceived quality, which then became the strongest variables that influence purchase intention of local skincare products. Perceived quality is the strongest influential variable of purchase intention, while trustworthiness plays an important mediating role as a relation between celebrity aspects and consumer perceptions of the product.
