  • Does K-Pop Reinforce Gender Inequalities? Empirical Evidence from a New Data Set
    Asian Women December 2017, Vol. 33, No. 4, pp. 27-54 Does K-pop Reinforce Gender Inequalities? Empirical Evidence from a New Data Set Xi Lin Korea University, Korea Robert Rudolf Korea University, Korea Abstract As K-pop has become a cultural ambassador for Korea, attracting millions of fans across the globe, the sexist portrayal of both female and male idols in K-pop products stands in conflict with the gender-mainstreaming policies to which the country has committed itself. Using a unique and newly collected data set of 6,317 K-pop fans from 100 countries around the world, this study examines the relationship between individual K-pop consumption and gender attitudes of K-pop fans. Findings suggest that a higher level of spending on K-pop related items and activities is related to less egalitarian gender attitudes. Interestingly, this correlation is stronger for fans from already less gender-equal nations. Results indicate that the industry that is actively promoted by the Korean government includes elements that might reinforce a sexist culture and traditional gender roles both within Korea and around the globe, further obstructing women’s pursuit of equal opportunities. Key words K-pop, sexism, sexual objectification, gender stereotypes, gender attitudes Introduction Since the late-2000s, the Korean pop music industry (K-pop), as part of the larger Korean Wave (Hallyu) phenomenon, has experienced un- precedented international success. With K-pop fans as the mainstay of the increasing Hallyu fan base, which just reached 59.4 million in 2016 (The Korea Foundation, 2017), the rise of K-pop has not only brought in hun- dreds of millions of dollars in music export revenue for Korea (KOCCA, 2016; Yonhap, 2016) but has also contributed to the boom of Korea’s cos- metic, fashion, tourism as well as plastic surgery industries.

Press release Comrade of Édouard Vuillard and Pierre Bonnard when all three were studying art, Maurice Denis (1870-1943) was a painter and major theoretician of modern French art at the turn of the 20th century. This show – the first dedicated to the artist in Switzerland in 50 years – focuses on the early years of Denis’s career. The novel visual experiments of the “Nabi of the beautiful icons” gave way to the serene splendor of the symbolist works, followed by the bold decision to return to classicism. This event, which features nearly 90 works, is organised with the exceptional support of the Musée d'Orsay and thanks to loans from Europe and the United States. Maurice Denis remains famous for the watchword he devised in 1890, “Remember that a painting – before being a warhorse, a nude woman, or some anecdote or other – is basically a plane surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order.” Beyond this manifesto, the breadth and depth of his pictorial output make clear the ambitions of a life completely devoted to art, love, and spirituality.

One of this composer’s orchestral works begins with an eleven-note chord that leaves out a C-sharp from the tone row. This composer of Inscape and Piano Variations used two movements linked by a cadenza in a work ​ ​ ​ ​ for strings, harp, piano, and the soloist, a clarinet. In another work, woodwinds and brass underscore a narrator who reads, (*) “We cannot escape history.” This composer was inspired by a Henry A.

  • Achievement in the South Korean Music Industry Björn Boman1
    6 International Journal of Music Business Research, October 2019, vol. 8 no. 2 Achievement in the South Korean music industry Björn Boman1 Abstract South Korean Pop music, commonly referred to as K-pop, emerged in the 1990s and reached regional and global recognition in the early 2000s, with a peak in 2018 with the two groups BTS and BLACKPINK. Their relative global success is explained in this article as an interplay of a G-L-G (Global-Local-Global) business model, beauty, ar- tistic and personality skills at the individual level, and idiosyncratic factors, such as particular songwriting capabilities and hit songs. This interplay was designed for market penetration in the US and UK. Keywords: K-pop, Hallyu, South Korea, Korean wave, BTS, BLACKPINK 1 Introduction Many might associate contemporary South Korea with high Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) results, as well as rapid technological and economic development since the 1980s. Another ele- ment which is linked to modern South Korea is its pop cultural industry, especially K-pop, an umbrella term for South Korean popular music. The appeal of K-pop has been ascribed to physically attractive group mem- bers, globally fashionable pop music, and synchronized dance perfor- mances (Oh 2013). While several K-pop acts such as Big Bang, TVXQ, Girls' Generation, Super Junior, and EXO have reached local (South Ko- rea) and regional (East Asia) success (Lie 2013; Lie 2014; Oh 2013), these acts have failed to penetrate the major music markets of the US and UK. An attempt was made in the US by Girls' Generation with the single and music video "The Boys" in 2011, which was launched in an English ver- sion.
