This study examined the effects of brand attachment on internal modification behavior and usability expanding behavior of product. It has been found that the attribute alignable difference of product plays a moderating effect in internal modification behavior and usability expanding behavior. As a result of the study, the more brand attachment is high, the more behavior of product internal modification behavior and usability expanding behavior of product are high. In addition, consumers with high brand attachment showed greater internal modification behavior of the product when the difference of attribute alignability was high. Also, consumers with high brand attachment showed greater usability expanding behavior of the product when the difference of attribute non-alignability was high. Companies can improve brand attachment and retain loyal customers by increasing the difference of attribute alignability in consumer's product internal modification behavior. In terms of consumer's behavior of expanding product usage, we can strengthen brand attachment and can be used as a differentiated competitive advantage of products through the attribute nonalignable difference.
