Abstract

This study examines the influence of the Korean Wave, promotions, and brand ambassadors on purchasing decisions for the BNI TapCash NCT 127 Edition. A total of 100 respondents participated in this research, with data collected through a questionnaire distributed via Google Forms. The data was then analyzed using SPSS 29.3. The descriptive analysis results indicate that the Korean Wave (X1) is categorized as very good, with a percentage of 86.9%. The promotion variable (X2) falls into the good category, scoring 80.8%. The brand ambassador variable (Z) is also rated very good, achieving 88.6%. Meanwhile, the purchase decision variable (Y) is classified as good, with a percentage of 77.4%. These findings emphasize the strong impact of the Korean Wave phenomenon, promotional efforts, and celebrity endorsements on consumer purchasing behavior. The high percentage for the Korean Wave and brand ambassador variables suggests that cultural influences and brand associations with well-known public figures significantly enhance consumer interest. The slightly lower score for promotions indicates an opportunity for improvement in marketing strategies to further increase engagement. Similarly, the purchase decision percentage highlights the need for businesses to strengthen promotional effectiveness to drive higher conversion rates. This study provides meaningful insights for businesses looking to leverage global cultural trends and celebrity endorsements to enhance brand perception and increase product demand. Companies can optimize their marketing strategies by strengthening promotional activities and ensuring brand ambassadors resonate well with their target consumers. These findings can guide future strategies in maximizing consumer appeal and driving brand loyalty in an increasingly competitive market.
