The purpose of this study is to compare the Korean consumers` global brand preference and purchase intension with Chinese consumers. Based on the literature review, we created structural correlation between consumer ethnocentrism, perceived quality, brand of origin image global brand preference and purchase intension. The survey polled 500 university students in Busan, Korea and Shanghai, China. SPSS ver.15.0과 AMOS ver.7.0 statistical package were used to analysis the questionnaire data. In order to examine the structural correlation between variables we operated structural equation modeling.

And global brand preference had no effect on purchase intension, either. in Chinese case, perceived quality, brand of origin image had positive effect on global brand preference, but consumer ethnocentrism had no effect on global brand preference. while global brand preference had positive effect on purchase intension.
