Abstract: | This article presents the open-market paradigm in the context of digital convergence and proposes strategic directions for
open-market participants. Although not a new phenomenon, open market has become the most popular e-business model, linking
millions of buyer and seller individuals (Customer to Customer: C2C). This article examines the drivers of digital convergence
that enable the open-market paradigm and conducts industry and Blue Ocean analyses for open-market business. Finally, a real-world
application—the Cyworld market of Korea—is presented as an illustrative example. |
