  • The K-Pop Wave: an Economic Analysis
    The K-pop Wave: An Economic Analysis Patrick A. Messerlin1 Wonkyu Shin2 (new revision October 6, 2013) ABSTRACT This paper first shows the key role of the Korean entertainment firms in the K-pop wave: they have found the right niche in which to operate— the ‘dance-intensive’ segment—and worked out a very innovative mix of old and new technologies for developing the Korean comparative advantages in this segment. Secondly, the paper focuses on the most significant features of the Korean market which have contributed to the K-pop success in the world: the relative smallness of this market, its high level of competition, its lower prices than in any other large developed country, and its innovative ways to cope with intellectual property rights issues. Thirdly, the paper discusses the many ways the K-pop wave could ensure its sustainability, in particular by developing and channeling the huge pool of skills and resources of the current K- pop stars to new entertainment and art activities. Last but not least, the paper addresses the key issue of the ‘Koreanness’ of the K-pop wave: does K-pop send some deep messages from and about Korea to the world? It argues that it does. Keywords: Entertainment; Comparative advantages; Services; Trade in services; Internet; Digital music; Technologies; Intellectual Property Rights; Culture; Koreanness.

  • BTS, Digital Media, and Fan Culture
    19 Hyunshik Ju Sungkyul University, South Korea Premediating a Narrative of Growth: BTS, Digital Media, and Fan Culture This article explores the landscape of fan engagements with BTS, the South Korean idol group. It offers a new approach to studying digital participation in fan culture. Digital fan‐based activity is singled out as BTS’s peculiarity in K‐pop’s history. Grusin’s discussion of ‘premediation’ is used to describe an autopoietic system for the construction of futuristic reality through online communication between BTS and ARMY, as the fans are called. As such, the BTS’s live performance is experienced through ARMY’s premediation, imaging new identities of ARMY as well as BTS. The way that fans engage digitally with BTS’s live performance is motivated by a narrative of growth of BTS with and for ARMY. As an agent of BTS’s success, ARMY is crucial in driving new economic trajectories for performative products and their audiences, radically intervening in the shape and scope of BTS’s contribution to a global market economy. Hunshik Ju graduated with Doctor of Korean Literature from Sogang University in South Korea. He is currently a full‐time lecturer at the department of Korean Literature and Language, Sungkyul University. Keywords: BTS, digital media fan culture, liveness, premediation Introduction South Korean (hereafter Korean) idol group called Bulletproof Boy AScouts (hereafter BTS) delivered a speech at the launch of “Generation Unlimited,” United Nations Children’s Fund’s (UNICEF) new youth agenda, at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 24, 2018. In his speech, BTS’s leader Kim Nam Jun (also known as “RM”) stressed the importance of self-love by stating that one must love oneself wholeheartedly regardless of the opinions and judgments of others.1 Such a message was not new to BTS fans, since the group’s songs usually raise concerns and reflections about young people’s personal growth.

The way in which individuals are exposed to different genres and types of music helps illustrate the extent to which globalization has had an impact on the world. Before the invention of the internet, music was only available for purchase to consumers who went to record stores and physically purchased goods. Now, countless unique songs and genres are readily available with just a single search. Due to how easily consumers can access new music, digital distribution has completely overtaken the profit from selling physical copies of albums. In 2006, record labels still made $9.4 billion from CD sales in the United States, despite the fact that digital distribution entities, such as Napster and iTunes, provided digital copies of the same songs.

    International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 7 (3.30) (2018) 74-79 International Journal of Engineering & Technology Website: www.sciencepubco.com/index.php/IJET Research paper Fanaticism of a Korean Boy Band, “Shinee” as Perceived by K-Popers “Shinee World Indonesia” in Karawang Regency Zainal Abidin1*, Yanti Tayo2, Mayasari3 1 Communication Studies Department, FISIP UNSIKA 2 Communication Studies Department, FISIP UNSIKA 3 Communication Studies Department, FISIP UNSIKA * Corresponding author E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Korean popular music, or broadly known as K-Pop, is the most noticeable example of hallyu-wave products. Actors, actresses, soloists, duos, and groups consisting of several members are considered as K-Pop performers. In Korea, such performers are popular by the term “idol”. Those who idolize a particular idol, whether it is soloist or group, often join a fans-club called “fandom”. Teenagers as common members of fandom will identify and try to behave in similar way to their idols. Looking at that phenomenon, this study aims to find the motive behind K-Popers “SHINee World Indonesia” fanaticism of a Korean boy band, SHINee. This study applies qualitative method, a research method which is defined as an attempt to get a better understanding regarding the com- plexity of human interaction. It results in several keywords of qualitative research: process, understanding, complexity, interaction, and human. The researchers adopt qualitative method with phenomenology approach, due to the fact that the research object is closely related to the motive behind K-popers fanatics and their imitative behavior. The researchers realize that the motive and imitative behavior of K- Popers fanatics are processed within themselves, not by the visible behaviors in the outside.

  • The Aesthetic Style of Korean Singers in Japan: a Review of Hallyu from the Perspective of Fashion
    International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 2 No. 19 [Special Issue - October 2011] The Aesthetic Style of Korean Singers in Japan: A Review of Hallyu from the Perspective of Fashion Judy Park, PhD Seoul National University Department of Clothing and Textiles & Lecturer Donduk Women‟s University Seoul, Korea Abstract Hallyu means “Korean wave” and refers to the phenomenon of Korean popular culture gaining immense popularity overseas, mostly in Asian countries. Hallyu started with Korean TV dramas being exported to nearby countries, but the new hallyu of recent years is being led by young K-pop singers. Meanwhile, the Korean fashion industry is still struggling to make a mark in the international market. This study aimed to examine the clothing styles of new hallyu singers in Japan, focusing on the year 2010, to extract the aesthetic characteristics and analyze why the styles are well received in the Japanese market to ultimately present indicators of possible directions for both Korean fashion and entertainment to succeed in the international market in the future. Hallyu singers were found to appeal to their Japanese audience with a unique and different style, cute and approachable elements and a slim silhouette, along with shy and polite body language that added to the image of gentleness already created through Korean TV shows. 1. Introduction As Coco Chanel said, “Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.” In other words, fashion is a core part of life that is influenced by and reflects our minds and lifestyles.
