Latar Belakang Sejak beberapa tahun yang lalu, K-Pop dan K-Drama berhasil mengguncang dunia dengan lagu dan kisah cerita drama yang menyentuh hati penonton.1 Lagu-lagu K-Pop berhasil menjuarai tangga lagu di dunia dan K- Drama telah merebut hati masyarakat di Asia, Amerika, hingga Eropa.2 K-Drama yang cukup dekat dengan realitas sosial penonton mampu membangun imajinasi hingga menciptakan emosi di kalangan penontonnya. Korea Selatan memang menjadi salah satu Negara dengan produksi soap operas terkenal di dunia yang biasa disebut K-Drama atau Korean Drama (drama Korea). Drama Korea (bahasa Korea: 한국드라마) mengacu pada drama televisi di Korea Selatan yang dibuat dalam sebuah format miniseri dengan jumlah episode berkisar antara 16 hingga 100 episode dan tentu saja diproduksi dalam 3 bahasa Korea. Banyak drama produksi Korea Selatan yang telah populer di seluruh Asia dan telah memberikan kontribusi pada fenomena umum dari Hallyu Wave dan juga "Demam Drama" di beberapa negara. 1 “International Reception Korean Drama”, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_drama 27/04/2015/14.00 2 “List of Kpop on the Billboard Charts”, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_K- pop_on_the_Billboard_charts 27/04/2015/14.00 3 “Korean Drama”, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_drama 27/04/2015/14.00 commit to user 1 perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 2 Secara umum, terdapat dua jenis genre dalam drama Korea, yang pertama adalah drama yang serupa dengan opera sabun di Negara barat.4 Drama ini biasanya melibatkan konflik terkait dengan hubungan antara ibu dan anak, percintaan, keluarga, permusuhan, dan sebagainya. Beberapa drama Korea dengan genre ini yang terkenal adalah Winter Sonata, Boys Over Flowers, Doctor Stranger, City Hunter, Man From the Star, Dream High, I Hear Your Voice, Kill Me Heal Me, Heirs, Yongpal, Healer, dan sebagainya. Genre yang kedua adalah drama bertemakan sejarah Korea Selatan yang biasa disebut Sae Geuk.5 Drama sejarah Korea biasanya melibatkan alur yang sangat kompleks dengan kostum yang rumit serta memerlukan set dan efek yang khusus. Sae Geuk memiliki banyak penggemar, tak hanya dari Korea, namun juga dari berbagai Negara, termasuk Indonesia. Berikut ini adalah beberapa drama Sae Geuk yang terkenal, yaitu Jumong, Queen Seon Deok, Dong Yi, Jewel in the Palace, Moon Embracing the Sun dan sebagainya. Di Indonesia, drama Korea mulai populer sejak drama Winter Sonata dan Endless Love tayang pada 2002 lalu di SCTV. Bahkan beberapa drama Korea dibuat versi Indonesianya, seperti Demi Cinta (2005) yang merupakan remake dari drama Autumn in My Heart, Kau yang Berasal dari Bintang yang diadaptasi 6 dari You Who Came From Another Star, dan lain-lain.

  • A Cinematic View on North Korean Spies from the South in Secretly Greatly (2013) Ji-Eun Kim
    REVIEW A Cinematic View on North Korean Spies from the South in Secretly Greatly (2013) Ji-Eun Kim North Korean spies in South Korean cinema are by no means a recent phenomenon. South Korean anti-communist genre films, which had their beginnings in the late 1940s, emphasized nationalism and positioned South Korea as being in deadlock with communist North Korea. As evidence of the popularity of such anticommunist films, there were seventeen anticommunist films made between 1949 and 1960 (Shim, 2011). Most of these genre films consists of stories of “split families, partisans, spies and armed infiltrators to the South” (Shim, 2011, p.179). In the 1960s, President Park Chung Hee reinforced anticommunist policy in South Korea in fields like the defense system and in education. Many elementary schools had to hold anticommunist speech contests and draw political posters as well as slogans (Shim, 2011, p. 190). A gap emerged between the propaganda of the Park regime and the films that directors wanted to produce. While the government sought to portray communism in a negative light, film directors wanted to jump over the limited anticommunist plots and narratives to broader artistic possibilities. Because of these expectations of having to satisfy government propaganda, filmmakers had to make anticommunist films in order to get state level censorship shortcuts (Shim, 2011, p. 191). Shim also noted that it was only by 1985 that film policy stopped favoring these types of anticommunist films. Plaridel • Vol. 14 No. 2 • July - December 2017 145-154 Before the early 1990s, anti-communist film characters consisted of monstrous and heartless spies that attacked South Koreans.

My 2019/2020 TRAPE is about Korean Entertainment! I have been into K-Pop for almost 3 years and I have always been researching lots of things about Korean celebrities, their activities and their TV shows. Since I was a child, I have always been very curious about the Asian culture, even though I thought they were gangster. As I grew up, I have become more and more connected to their culture. Then, at the end of 2016, I listened to my first K-Pop song ever. I was 10 years old and I was in primary school when I got to know EXO, the first group I listened to. They had a big impact in my life because in that moment I was struggling mentally and physically... The only thing that made me happy, was listening to their songs! They would make feel better in every way possible, once I listened to some music, I’d completely forget about my worries. It was always the best part of my days. That is why I have grown attached to K-Pop songs, dances and singers. Table of contents WHAT WERE THE MOST FAMOUS SERIES (KOREAN DRAMAS)? (2019) IS IT POPULAR IN OTHER COUNTRIES?

  • The Romantic Perpetuation of Patriarchy Through the Representation of Pretty Boy in Popular Korean Dramas in Malaysia
    © Media Watch 8 (3) 298-310, 2017 ISSN 0976-0911 e-ISSN 2249-8818 DOI: 10.15655/mw/2017/v8i3/49153 Prettiness as a Shield: The Romantic Perpetuation of Patriarchy through the Representation of Pretty Boy in Popular Korean Dramas in Malaysia SOH WENG KHAI & JULIANA ABDUL WAHAB School of Communication, Universiti Sains Malaysia The idea of being a pretty boy was hailed as a regional privileged male ideal in Asia after the booming of Korean wave in late 1990s that saw Korean drama featuring men that openly embrace both masculine and feminine traits. They were often described as tall, possessing a slim feminine face, fashionable and romantic. While the pretty boy image was seen as a form of 'new masculinity' that acknowledged women equally, however, critical qualitative content analysis of popular Korean dramas in Malaysia, Moon Embracing the Sun (2012) and The Heirs (2013) revealed that these Korean men were feminised through the use of constant fragmented and close-up shots, and also through the use of bright and colourful costume. Although they did not hide their emotions, however, this performance only took place in the private sphere. As much as the metrosexual tried hard to disassociate themselves with the notion of femininity and queerness, the idea of being a pretty boy showed similar disavowal-masculinity is maintained through high-ranked social position despite there is an acceptance of a more feminised appearance. Keywords: Pretty boy, metrosexuality, masculinity, Korean drama, Korean wave Deemed as the contemporary dominant incarnation of East Asian popular culture (Ainslie & Lim, 2015, p. 2), the Korean wave (or popularly known as hallyu) has showed no sign of shrinking after almost two decades since the release of Winter Sonata that start exporting Korean cultural phenomenon globally in 2002.
