This study explored and examined the business motivation and personal/social background characteristics of small and medium-sized tourism entrepreneurs who play an important role in Jeju tourism industry by making use of survey data from local entrepreneurs. The results of this study indicated four types of distinctive business motivation: family, leisure, business, and achievement orientation. More importantly, the results showed that these four types of entrepreneur’s business motivation were significantly related to his/her age, income, years of residence, business type, previous occupation, years of previous occupation, and parent’s role model.핵심용어(Key words):기업가(Entrepreneur), 사업동기(Business motivation), 배경특성(Background characteristics), 중소관광기업(Small and medium-sized tourism enterprises)
