  • Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: an Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 1810–1835 1932–8036/20210005 Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: An Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada By employing cultural production approaches in conjunction with the global cultural economy, this article attempts to determine the primary characteristics of the rapid growth of local cultural industries and the global penetration of Korean cultural content. It documents major creators and their products that are received in many countries to identify who they are and what the major cultural products are. It also investigates power relations between cultural creators and the surrounding sociocultural and political milieu, discussing how cultural creators develop local popular culture toward the global cultural markets. I found that cultural creators emphasize the importance of cultural identity to appeal to global audiences as well as local audiences instead of emphasizing solely hybridization. Keywords: cultural production, Hallyu, cultural creators, transnational culture Since the early 2010s, the Korean Wave (Hallyu in Korean) has become globally popular, and media scholars (Han, 2017; T. J. Yoon & Kang, 2017) have paid attention to the recent growth of Hallyu in many parts of the world. Although the influence of Western culture has continued in the Korean cultural market as well as elsewhere, local cultural industries have expanded the exportation of their popular culture to several regions in both the Global South and the Global North. Social media have especially played a major role in disseminating Korean culture (Huang, 2017; Jin & Yoon, 2016), and Korean popular culture is arguably reaching almost every corner of the world.

Clearly, the la� er’s eff ects go beyond economics as Asian politics and culture (including media) tend to evolve due to the changing times. While these studies do not cover the entire Asian experience with regard to globalization and other in� uences, they nevertheless give interested readers the speci� c experience in selected Asian countries like the Philippines, Korea and East Timor while providing a general context of Asian media and culture.

  • Another Undiscovered Country: Culture, Reception and the Adoption of the Science Fiction Genre in South Korea
    ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 14, NO. 1, JUNE 2011: 153–174 ANOTHER UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY: CULTURE, RECEPTION AND THE ADOPTION OF THE SCIENCE FICTION GENRE IN SOUTH KOREA By GORD SELLAR The global production, distribution, and consumption of SF is difficult to explain on the basis of extant theories linking SF reception and production to industrialization. South Korea offers a striking example of a highly-industrialized society saturated with technosocial change, influenced by foreign SF but without more than marginally successful localization of the SF genre in literary or cinematic form. The Korean film industry’s forays into the “foreign landscape” of SF over the past decade allow for alternative interpretations. Analysis of Lee Si-Myung’s 2009: Lost Memories (2002), Jeong Yun-su’s Yesterday (2002), Jang Sun-woo’s The Resurrection of the Little Match Girl (2002), Jang Joo-Hwan’s Save the Green Planet (2003), Min Byung-Chun’s Natural City (2003), and Bong Joon-Ho’s The Host (2007), among others, reveal specific aspects of Korean culture that problematize the localization of the SF genre to a Korean setting, namely problems of generic fluency on the part of audiences and creators alike, post-colonial nationalist-historiographic concerns, anxieties of influence regarding foreign-originating genre and narrative forms, and more. A study of recent Korean SF films—primarily those which fail as specimens of the SF genre—is followed by a discussion of approaches which have resulted in the successful circumvention of cultural barriers to the localization of SF, suggesting tantalizing possibilities for the continued localization process and development of a native Korean SFnal imaginary.

I am deeply grateful to each of them. First, I want to express my most heartfelt gratitude to my advisor, Deborah Wong, who has been an amazing scholarly mentor as well as a model for living a humane life. Thanks to her encouragement in 2012, after I encountered her and gave her my portfolio at the SEM in New Orleans, I decided to pursue my doctorate at UCR in 2013. Thank you for continuously encouraging me to carry through my research project and earnestly giving me your critical advice and feedback on this dissertation. I would like to extend my warmest thanks to my dissertation committee members, Kelly Jeong, René Lysloff, and Jonathan Ritter. Through taking seminars and individual studies with these great faculty members at UCR, I gained my expertise in Korean studies, popular music studies, and ethnomusicology. Thank you for your essential and insightful suggestions on my work. My special acknowledgement goes to the Korean female K-pop fans who were willing to participate in my research.
