The pandemic has caused significant blows to the global economy, including the Chinese economy, with the tourism industry bearing a heavy brunt. Drawing from prospect theory, the purpose of this study is to find the effect of the post-pandemic destination image of China and risk perception on attitudes and approach behaviors toward China. The survey was conducted on potential tourists in South Korea, and structural analysis and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) techniques were utilized to assess the relationships between variables. The results highlight positive China's destination image among tourists primarily concerning destination safety, natural environment, cultural richness, infrastructure, and local products and services. However, there persists a perceived psychological and health and safety risk regarding attitudes toward traveling to China and associated approach behaviors. Particularly, current research findings discover that the importance of perceived risk for approach behaviors outweighs that of destination image. Theoretical and practical contributions with future research inquiry are also provided.
