Dr. Youngsoo Kim

Youngsoo Kim, PhD, is a Lecturer in Business Management at the Business School, University of Aberdeen. His research focuses on travel destinations, tourism autobiographical memory, well-being, and consumer decision-making processes. Youngsoo is currently conducting several research projects, with a particular focus on well-being in tourism contexts. Within this area, he develops his research through three key streams: cognitive processing (e.g., remembering), affective responses (e.g., mood), and consumer desires and future behaviours. In particular, he is interested in research that generates theoretical, methodological, and practical implications for tourism management.
