Purpose - It is very important to examine customer's behavior about AR shopping either practically or academically. Thus, it will be worthwhile to discuss more in details about AR utility which is even in early stage of distribution industry now. Research design, data, and methodology - This study has designed in consideration of control effects of perceived complexity based on customer's flow as dependent variable, and on AR characteristics and technology readiness as independent variables. Study data has been collected from questionnaires after using AR shopping service directly by those who are 20-30 years old of male and female respondents, which has been analyzed with 167 questionnaires. Hypothesis is verified using by hierarchical regression analysis. Results - After results of hypothesis verified, positive influence has been shown in terms of sensory immersion, manipulation, and optimism, however, it is rejected in relation to navigation and innovativeness. Control effect of perceived complexity has not been appeared. Conclusions - Implications of this study are as follows. First, AR shopping service has to provide an informational value. Second, by providing AR service to customer group, marketing activities will be in effects. Third, recognized complexity is not connected with significant control effect in terms of customer's devotion of service.
