Hip-hop group Epik High (currently Tablo and Mithra Jin) follow up on last year’s hit double disc album ‘[e]’, with this special release LP featuring unreleased tracks from the duo. ‘Epilogue’ is the first album since DJ Tukutz’s military departure and is supposedly the last until he returns. Currently holding the crown in the Korean hip-hop scene as the most consistent group for the past 6 years, Epik High is no stranger to critical acclaim and mainstream success. Their music appeals to both underground and mainstream audiences, by pushing the envelope to promote artistry, poetry, and social issues in their lyrics. Spanning a time period of the past 6 years, there is a good variety of experimental hip-hop tracks ranging from soft rock to R&B found in ‘Epilogue’.

  • Roots and Routes 188
    Fendler / Roots and Routes 188 ROOTS AND ROUTES Hip-Hop from South Korea Ute Fendler University of Bayreuth [email protected] Abstract With the growing success of hip-hop in South Korea, the discussions about the authenticity of this genre increase and create cleavages between the mainstream and the underground rappers. The paper intends to analyze three examples of the contemporary music scene that are representative of different positions. Taking Simon Frith’s work on popular music as a means to construct identity, the paper suggests questioning the concept of authenticity (“roots”) and proposes instead conceiving hip-hop in South Korea as a movement at the crossroads (“routes”) of various influences and practices. Keywords Authenticity, Identity, Music videos, Performance, R&B, Rap About the Author Ute Fendler is chair of romance cultural and comparative cultural studies at the University of Bayreuth (Germany). Her research interests include intermedial and intercultural phenomenon, popular culture, migration, iconographies, music video, and performance. Kritika Kultura 29 (2017): –213 © Ateneo de Manila University <http://journals.ateneo.edu/ojs/kk/> Fendler / Roots and Routes 189 In the ongoing process of reaching out to global markets, pop music in South Korea undergoes fast changes, mainly under the influence of US-American and Western European markets, as literature on K-pop highlights (Choi and Maliangkay). John Lie dealt with the question of K-pop as music positioned between different influences: K-pop is symptomatic of the cultural transformation of South Korea: at once the almost complete repudiation of traditional cultures—both Confucian and folk—and the repeated rhetorical stress on the continuities between the past and the present: the nearly empty signifier that is South Korean cultural-national identity.

  • Quantitative Analysis of Phonological Variation in Korean Hip-Hop English Lyrics
    IDENTITIES AND LYRICS: QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF PHONOLOGICAL VARIATION IN KOREAN HIP-HOP ENGLISH LYRICS A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Linguistics By Jinsok Lee, B.A. Washington, D.C. April, 2009 Copyright 2009 by Jinsok Lee All Rights Reserved ii IDENTITIES AND LYRICS: QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF PHONOLOGICAL VARIATION IN KOREAN HIP-HOP ENGLISH LYRICS Jinsok Lee, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Natalie Schilling, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This paper extends the sociolinguistic investigation of Hip-Hop language and its performative usage more generally by examining English in the lyrics of three Korean Hip-Hop groups: Dynamic Duo, Epik High, and Drunken Tiger. This paper examines overall occurrence of English as well as the extent to which their English incorporates features associated with African American Vernacular English (AAVE). Alim (2002) argues that American Hip-Hop artists connect their lyrics to street culture by using features of AAVE such as copula absence however, in this study of Korean Hip-Hop lyrics, instead of focusing on syntactic features, phonological features are to be studied mainly. The use of English in Korean Hip-Hop songs varies from lexical items (e.g. Nwun tteponi yesterday swucwupten kuttay. From the song “paykya” from the album “Remapping the Human Soul” by Epik High 2006) to a sentences (When My body turns cold, you will know, I remapped the human soul. From the song “paykya” from the album “Remapping the Human Soul” by Epik High 2006), and sometimes, but not for all the artists, a whole paragraph.

    YG Entertainment (122870 KQ ) Buying opportunity amid shifting perceptions Entertainment Shifting perceptions: 1) Normalized lineup and new artist momentum Concerns over YG Entertainment’s artist void are dissipating. The company’s star group Big Bang is preparing to make a comeback, and at least one new act will debut this Company Report year. The company will have a total of five groups that can go on overseas arena tours, February 27, 2020 and we see potential for additional growth. Big Bang will make its long-awaited comeback at the US Coachella festival in April. With their contract almost certain to be renewed, the group is likely to release a new album and embark on a world tour. We expect to see additional positive headlines soon . BLACKPINK is set to make its return with the release of a new album around April , which (Upgrade) Buy is likely to include major collaborations related to its partnership with Universal Music Group . The group is also planning to tour the US and Europe, and the minimum Target Price (12M, W) 40,000 guarantee for the concerts is likely to be raised from last year, leading to a meaningful profit contribution.

  • YG Entertainment (122870 KQ ) Global Platform Revenue Exhibits Strong Growth
    YG Entertainment (122870 KQ ) Global platform revenue exhibits strong growth 3Q18 review: Parent and YouTube both better than expected Entertainment For 3Q18, YG Entertainment reported consolidated revenue of W65.2bn (-13.3% YoY ) and operating profit of W2.6bn (+77.8% YoY). Operating profit fell short of our Results Comment estimate, which did not include content production losses (W1.7bn ). Still, we believe the company pe rformed in line with market expectations, considering the unfavorable November 12, 2018 earnings variables it faced in the quarter. Revenue from YouTube was also better than expected. Despite a widely anticipated void in concerts, Seungri, iKON, and BLACKPINK made great strides in the quarter. In particular, 1) BLACKPINK’s success drove robust digital (Maintain) Buy music revenue (W14.1bn; -11.3% YoY). 2) In addition, revenue from YouTube, a key area of focus, grew strongly to more than W3bn, likely exceeding the 1H18 total. Even after excluding one-time revenue from G-Dragon ’s documentary, YouTube revenue was Target Price (12M, W) 60,000 better than our expectation of W2bn. We believe domestic digital music sales, a relatively stable source of income, and global platform sales (YouTube ads, Apple Share Price (11/09/18, W) 36,200 Music/Spotify licensing, etc.), a fast-growing source of income, will both continue to make an increasing contribution to profits. Expected Return 66% 3) The content production business recorded a loss of W1.7bn (vs. loss of W10.1bn in 4Q17-2Q18), due to higher-than-expected fixed costs. Upcoming programs include YG Treasure Box and another new title for Netflix (NFLX US/CP: US$301.00).

  • YG Entertainment
    YG Entertainment (122870 KQ ) Uncertainties lie ahead Entertainment TP lowered to W32,000; positive expectations overshadowed by earnings void We are lowering our target price on YG Entertainment by 17% to W32,000 (based on Results Comment P/E of 25x). We reduced our 2018 net profit attributable to controlling interests forecast to W23.5bn, taking into account: 1) a higher effective tax rate (30% level); 2) February 23, 2018 early recognition of iKON concerts in 2017; and 3) won appreciation. The company had a hefty tax bill in 1Q18, which we believe was because only half of the limit on income deduction for services provided overseas was applied in the quarter, a factor that shou ld be reflected in future net profit forecasts. Given that royalties account for nearly 30% of consolidated revenue, we assume an effective tax rate in the 30% range (Downgrade) Trading Buy for 2018 onwards. Some potential opportunities still exist, including: 1) growth of the company’s lineup Target Price (12M, W) ▼ 32,000 outside of Big Bang; 2) new content ventures; and 3) normalization in China. However , we believe such tailwinds are overshadowed by tax issues and the upcoming void in earnings. We think expectations need to be lowered until the aforement ioned Share Price (02/22/18, W) 28,700 tailwinds become visible. 4Q17 review: Higher taxes result in net loss Expected Return 11% For 4Q17, YG Entertainment reported consolidated revenue of W95.5bn (+35.8% YoY) and operating profit of W4.6bn (+30% YoY). Revenue topped the consensus, but operating profit fell short (consensus estimates were W82.9bn and W7.1bn, OP (17P, Wbn) 25 respectively).
