4 is a step S310 in which at least one processor 140 calculates a domestic interest index (I) and an index value (P) for determining a user's propensity based on information about the user and information on the online shopping mall usage history It is a flowchart to explain in detail.

A configuration (and/or feature) described as a 'user' in relation to FIG. 4 may be implemented by being replaced with a 'first user' and/or a 'second user'. Also, in the present invention, the terminal used by the first user refers to the first user terminal, and the terminal used by the second user refers to the second user terminal.

In step S311 , the at least one processor 140 may collect information about the user including nationality, gender, language used, self-introduction, region, period of stay in Korea, and/or number of visits in Korea. In this case, the at least one processor 140 may obtain information about the user from the user through the input/output unit 110 or may obtain information about the user through the communication unit 120 , but is not limited thereto. For example, the communication unit 120 may receive information about the user from an external terminal and/or an external server and record it in the memory 130 .

Thereafter, in step S313 , the at least one processor 140 includes the total purchase amount and/or the number of purchases paid while the user purchases a product of a domestic company (and/or a product of a foreign company) through the online shopping mall. may collect information (and/or information on the user's online shopping mall usage history including the total purchase amount and/or the number of purchases during a predetermined monitoring period). In this case, the at least one processor 140 may obtain information on the user's online shopping mall usage history stored in the memory 130 or obtain information on the user's online shopping mall usage history through the communication unit 120 , It is not limited thereto. For example, the at least one processor 140 may scrape the corresponding information from a server that provides information on the online shopping mall usage history. At this time, scraping refers to a technology that automatically accesses the system to extract and bring necessary data. The information from the website or program can be retrieved and stored in other programs or databases so that it can be viewed or used whenever necessary, and the stored data can be used as data for comparative analysis. For example, the server providing information on the online shopping mall usage history may be an online shopping mall server operated by a third party.

Thereafter, in step S315 , the at least one processor 140 may calculate the domestic interest index (I) based on the information on the user and the information on the online shopping mall usage history. The domestic interest index (I) can be calculated by Equation (1). In this case, the domestic interest index (I) is an index that quantifies the degree of interest of foreigners residing in Korea through information on users and online shopping mall usage history.

[Equation 1]

In this case, I means the domestic interest index (I), P _h means the total purchase amount paid by the user while purchasing the product of a domestic company in the online shopping mall, and P _n is the product of the domestic company by the user in the online shopping mall means the total number of purchases, S _d means the period of stay in Korea of the user, and w ₁ , w ₂ , and w ₃ are the It means the weight, the weight for the number of times the user purchases the product of a domestic company, and the weight for the user's stay period. In this regard, w ₁ , w ₂ , and w ₃ may be values preset by the at least one processor 140 . Also, S _d can be obtained as a difference value from the date of entry of the user to the current date. In addition, the at least one processor 140 may collect information for deriving the period of stay in Korea from a server operated by an institution performing immigration management tasks.

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may calculate an index value P for determining the user's tendency based on the information on the user and the online shopping mall usage history. The index value P for determining the user's tendency may be calculated by Equation (2). At this time, the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity is an index indicating the consumption propensity of foreigners residing in Korea for products of domestic companies. can

[Equation 2]

In relation to this, Figure 5 is an embodiment for explaining an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that the total purchase amount, the number of purchases, and the period of stay in Korea are displayed while purchasing products of a domestic company in the online shopping mall for users 1, 2 and 3 . In the present invention, user 1 may refer to a person included in the first user, and users 2 and 3 may refer to at least a person included in the second user. is called, and user 3 may be called a 2-2 user. At this time, w ₁ , w ₂ , and w ₃ may be initially set to 1, but if the period of stay exceeds 10,000 days

so that the value of

can be determined. Through this, the at least one processor 140 may set such that, when a specific period of stay has elapsed, the period of stay in Korea cannot affect the domestic interest index (I). In addition, the _{description in which the values of w 1} , w ₂ , and w ₃ are set to 1 is only for explaining the embodiment of the present invention, and may be reset to other values according to a predetermined criterion.

Meanwhile, the at least one processor 140 may calculate the domestic interest index (I) for users 1, 2, and 3 as 9, 9, and 7, respectively. Through this, it can be seen that user 1 and user 2 have a higher interest in Korea than user 3 . In detail, although user 1 has a shorter stay than user 3, user 1 has a much higher total purchase amount and number of purchases for products of domestic companies through online shopping malls than user 3, so user 1 is more interested in Korea than user 3 can be said to be high. In addition, since user 2 has a much longer period of stay than user 3, it can be said that user 1 is more interested in Korea than user 3.

Also, the at least one processor 140 may calculate the index values for determining the user's propensity for users 1, 2, and 3 as 8, 1.25, and 3.5, respectively. Through this, the user can grasp the consumption propensity for the products of domestic companies. For example, even if the domestic interest index (I) of user 1 and user 2 is the same, it can be determined that user 1 of user 1 and user 2 has a short stay period, but has a very large propensity to consume the product of a domestic company. , it can be judged that user 2's propensity to consume products of domestic companies is very small despite the long period of stay.

3, in step S320, the at least one processor 140 is based on the domestic interest index (I) and the index value (P) for determining the user's tendency, the first user and at least one second user may be selected as the first matching user.

In this regard, the at least one processor 140 calculates an index value (P) for determining the domestic interest index (I) and the user propensity for at least one user, and the calculated domestic interest index (I) and the user Each of the index values P for determining the tendency of at least one user may correspond to each other, and the at least one user may be selected as a matching candidate user, respectively.

Then, the at least one processor 140 is based on at least one of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user and the index value (P) for determining the user's tendency, at least one of the at least one matching candidate user of matching users can be selected.

In relation to this, the at least one processor 140 may select a second user that is different from the domestic interest index (I) of the first user within a preset value as the first matching user. For example, the at least one processor 140, the first user and the domestic interest index (I) is a difference of 1 (that is, within a predetermined threshold) a second user corresponding to the domestic interest index (I) It can be selected as the first matching user. Through this, the at least one processor 140 may match users with similar interests in Korea.

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may select the second user as the first matching user based on a comparison value of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user and the domestic interest index (I) of the second user. . This process can be calculated by Equation (3).

[Equation 3]

Here, P ₁ denotes the domestic interest index of the first user, P ₂ denotes the domestic interest index of the second user, respectively, and k denotes a threshold value (pre-set value) for matching.

Also, the at least one processor 140 may select the second user as the first matching user based on a comparison value of the period of stay of the first user and the second user in Korea. For example, regardless of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user, the at least one processor 140 selects a second user whose comparison value between the period of stay of the first user and the second user in Korea is 10 or more. It can be selected as the first matching user. That is, when the period of stay of the first user in Korea is 10 days, the second user with a period of stay of 100 days or more in Korea may be selected as the first matching user. Through this, the at least one processor 140 provides a second user who is a foreigner living in Korea who has a lot of experience or interest in the country for a first user who is a foreigner living in Korea who has recently stayed in Korea. It can be selected as a matching user.

On the other hand, the at least one processor 140 selects the first user and the at least one second user as the first matching user based on the domestic interest index (I) and the index value (P) for determining the user's tendency. can

In this regard, the at least one processor 140 selects a second user with a difference within a preset value with respect to the domestic interest index (I) of the first user and the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity, respectively, to the first It can be selected as a matching user. For example, for example, the at least one processor 140, the first user and the domestic interest index (I) is a difference of 1 (that is, within a predetermined threshold), while the index for determining the user's tendency The second user corresponding to the domestic interest index (I) with a difference of 1 (that is, within a predetermined threshold) and the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity is selected as the first matching user can do. Through this, the at least one processor 140 may match users who have a similar level of interest in Korea and have similar user propensities (eg, consumption propensities for domestic products).

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may select a second user equal to or greater than a preset value for the domestic interest index (I) and the index value (P) for determining the user's tendency as the first matching user. For example, regardless of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user, the at least one processor 140, the domestic interest index (I) is 10 or more, the index value (P) for determining the user's tendency The second user who is equal to or greater than 5 may be selected as the first matching user. Through this, the at least one processor 140 may match a foreigner living in Korea who has used a lot of domestic products for the first user who is a foreigner living in Korea who has just stayed in Korea.
