Referring to FIG. 3 , in step S310, at least one processor 140 may calculate a domestic interest index (I) based on information about the first user and information about online shopping mall usage history. Subsequently, in step S320, at least one processor 140 may select a first user and at least one second user as first matching users based on the domestic interest index (I). After that, in step S330, at least one processor 140 may transmit information indicating the first matching user to the first user terminal and/or the second user terminal. In this case, the first user and/or the second user may be a foreigner residing in Korea. Steps S310, S320, and S330 will be described in detail below.

FIG. 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 the user's propensity based on information about the user and information about online shopping mall usage details. It is a flowchart to explain in detail.

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

In step S311, at least one processor 140 may collect information about the user including nationality, gender, language used, self-introduction, region, length of stay in Korea, and/or number of visits to the country. At this time, the at least one processor 140 may obtain information about the user from the user through the input/output unit 110 or 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 a user from an external terminal and/or an external server and record it in the memory 130 .

Thereafter, in step S313, at least one processor 140 includes the total purchase price and/or number of purchases paid by the user while purchasing domestic company products (and/or foreign company products) through the online shopping mall. Information on online shopping mall usage details of the user (and/or information on online shopping mall usage details of the user including the total purchase amount and/or number of purchases during a predetermined monitoring period) may be collected. At this time, the at least one processor 140 may obtain information about the user's online shopping mall usage history stored in the memory 130 or obtain information about the user's online shopping mall usage history through the communication unit 120, Not limited to this. For example, at least one processor 140 may scrape corresponding information from a server that provides information on online shopping mall usage history. At this time, scraping refers to a technique of automatically accessing the system and extracting and bringing necessary data. It pulls out information from websites or programs and stores it in other programs or databases so that it can be viewed or used whenever necessary, and the saved data can be used as data for comparative analysis. For example, a server providing information on online shopping mall usage history may be an online shopping mall server managed by a third party.

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

[Equation 1]

At this time, I means the domestic interest index (I), P _h means the total purchase amount paid by the user while purchasing the domestic company's product in the online shopping mall, and P _n is the domestic company's product S means the total number of purchases purchased, S _d means the user's stay period in Korea, and w ₁ , w ₂ , w ₃ represent the total purchase amount paid by the user while purchasing products of domestic companies, respectively. It means the weight, the weight for the number of times the user purchases products of domestic companies, and the weight for the length of stay of the user. In this regard, w ₁ , w ₂ , and w ₃ may be values preset by at least one processor 140 . In addition, S _d can be obtained as a difference value between the current date and the date the user enters the country. In addition, at least one processor 140 may collect information for deriving a period of sojourn in Korea from a server operated by an organization performing immigration control.

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

[Equation 2]

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

의 값이 5가 되도록

가 결정될 수 있다. 이를 통하여, 적어도 하나의 프로세서(140)는, 특정 체류기간이 지난 경우, 국내에서의 체류기간이 국내관심지수(I)에 영향을 줄 수 없도록 설정할 수 있다. 또한, w₁, w₂, w₃의 값이 1로 설정되어 설명하는 것은 발명의 실시예를 설명하기 위할 뿐이며, 소정의 기준에 의해 다른 값으로 재설정될 수 있다. Referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that the total amount of purchase, the number of purchases, and the period of stay in the country are displayed while purchasing products of domestic companies 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 a person included in at least the second user. As another example, user 2 is a 2-1 user and user 3 may be referred to as the 2-2 user. At this time, w ₁ , w ₂ , w ₃ can be initially set to 1, but if the period of stay exceeds 10,000 days

so that the value of is 5

can be determined. Through this, at least one processor 140 may set the period of stay in Korea not to affect the domestic interest index (I) when a specific period of stay has passed. In addition, setting the values of w ₁ , w ₂ , and w ₃ to 1 is only for describing an embodiment of the invention, and may be reset to other values based on a predetermined criterion.

Meanwhile, at least one processor 140 may calculate domestic interest indices (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 are more interested in Korea than User 3. In detail, User 1 has a shorter period of stay than User 3, but User 1 has a much higher total purchase amount and number of purchases of products from 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. Also, since user 2's sojourn period is much longer than user 3's, it can be said that user 1's interest in Korea is higher than user 3's.

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may calculate index values for determining user propensities for users 1, 2, and 3 as 8, 1.25, and 3.5, respectively. Through this, users can grasp the consumption propensity of domestic companies' products. For example, although 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 period of stay, but has a very large propensity to consume products of domestic companies. , it can be judged that user 2 has a very small propensity to consume products of domestic companies, despite the long period of stay.

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

In relation to this, at least one processor 140 calculates a domestic interest index (I) for at least one user and an index value (P) for determining the user's propensity, and calculates the domestic interest index (I) and the user An index value (P) for determining the propensity of P may correspond to at least one user, and at least one user may be selected as a matching candidate user.

Thereafter, the at least one processor 140 selects at least one optimum among at least one matching candidate user based on at least one of the first user's national interest index (I) and the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity. Matching users of can be selected.

In this regard, the at least one processor 140 may select a second user having a difference between the domestic interest index (I) of the first user and a preset value as the first matching user. For example, the at least one processor 140 selects a second user corresponding to a domestic interest index (I) having a difference of 1 (ie, within a predetermined threshold) between the first user and the domestic interest index (I). It can be selected as the first matching user. Through this, at least one processor 140 can 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 between 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 a domestic interest index of the first user, P ₂ denotes a domestic interest index of the second user, and k denotes a threshold value (preset value) for matching.

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may select the second user as the first matching user based on a comparison value of sojourn periods of the first user and the second user in Korea. For example, regardless of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user, at least one processor 140 selects a second user whose length of stay in Korea between the first user and the second user 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, a second user whose period of stay in Korea is 100 days or more may be selected as the first matching user. Through this, the at least one processor 140, for the first user corresponding to a foreigner residing in Korea who has just stayed in Korea, sends a second user who is a foreigner residing in Korea with a lot of experience or interest in Korea to the first user. It can be selected as a matching user.

Meanwhile, the at least one processor 140 selects the first user and 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 propensity. can

*In relation to this, at least one processor 140 provides a second user having a difference between the first user's domestic interest index (I) and the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity within a preset value, respectively. 1 Can be selected as a matching user. For example, for example, at least one processor 140 is an index for determining the user's propensity while the difference between the first user and the domestic interest index (I) is 1 (ie, within a predetermined threshold). The second user corresponding to the domestic interest index (I) with a difference of 1 (ie, 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 with similar interests in Korea and similar user preferences (eg, domestic product consumption propensity).

In addition, the at least one processor 140 may select a second user whose domestic interest index (I) and an index value (P) for determining the user's propensity are each equal to or greater than a preset value as the first matching user. For example, regardless of the domestic interest index (I) of the first user, at least one processor 140 determines the index value (P) for determining the user's propensity while the domestic interest index (I) is 10 or more. A second user whose number is 5 or more may be selected as a first matching user. Through this, the at least one processor 140 may match foreigners residing in Korea who have used domestic products a lot for the first user corresponding to foreigners residing in Korea who have recently stayed in Korea.

Thereafter, in step S330, at least one processor 140 may transmit information indicating the first matching user to the first user terminal of the first user or the second user terminal of the second user.
