Destination marketing through film-induced tourism: a case study of Otaru, Japan

The existing studies have failed to adapt this framework to films. Subsequently, this study uncovers the necessity of an additional stage involving sustainability aspects.Design/methodology/approachA case study metho… Show more

“…A total of 1,178 keywords were used between 2018 and 2022 by the authors in JHTI to compose their research articles. For instance, previous studies published in JHTI have addressed medical tourism (Ediansyah et al ., 2022), Covid-19 (Khawaja et al ., 2022; Shukla et al ., 2022; Şengel et al ., 2023), satisfaction (Feng et al ., 2021; Genc and Gulertekin Genc, 2022), trust (Boğan and Dedeoğlu, 2019; Ahn and Kwon, 2020), motivation (Shi et al ., 2019; Omo-Obas and Anning-Dorson, 2022), attitude (Wan et al ., 2022), perceived value (Duong et al ., 2022) behavioural intention (Çelik and Dedeoğlu, 2019), social media (Ampountolas et al ., 2019), destination marketing (Nakayama, 2022), destination image (Karri and Dogra, 2022; Uner et al ., 2022) and authenticity (Genc and Gulertekin Genc, 2022). In the meantime, Pang and Zhang (2019) argue that keywords appearing over four times reflect the overall scope well.…”

“…However, by considering DS and addressing the prime cause of such a perception, DI can be altered for good and more importantly in an effective manner. DMOs upon the identification of the source, might turn towards IFAs (informational sources) such as films, news articles, documentaries (Hankinson, 2004), WoM, e-WOM (Dogra and Karri, 2020; Ferrer-Rosell and Marine-Roig, 2020), film-location maps and merchandising (Nakayama, 2022) which are all highly credible and capable of transforming an existing image. While the application of this is questionable in prominent tourist zones with greater cognizance, it is of high relevance in countries which have a vast untapped tourism potential and limited awareness.…”

To build connections between tourists and tourist destinations, environmentally conscious operations (ECOs) also promote a positive destination image.…”
