THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TURNING POINTS AND TRAVEL STYLES: A STUDY OF FIRST GENERATION OLDER KOREAN AMERICANS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Management by Young-joo Ahn December 2012 Accepted by: Dr. Francis A. McGuire, Committee Chair Dr. William C. Norman, Committee Chair Dr. Kenneth F. Backman Dr. DeWayne Moore ABSTRACT People experience various significant events across their life course. The purpose of this study was to explore what turning point events occur and how these events influence travel style among first generation older Korean immigrants. To accomplish this, 33 interviewees were recruited by using theoretical sampling and a semi-structured interview with the retrospective interview technique. Following the grounded theory approach (Strauss & Corbin, 1990, 1998; Corbin 2008), several themes emerged that created turning point events and travel styles among first generation older Korean immigrants. In the findings, however, the participants seemed to experience not only a single turning point event at a time, but also interpersonal, multiple, and sequential events. They were also in different situations and dealt with their significant life events in relation to various factors (e.g., changes of transitional role, changes of family structure, changes of socio-economic status, and changes of priorities in life), which are general outcomes of turning point events. The model suggests travel behaviors changed after turning point events in three specific travel outcomes of turning point events (i.e., value of travel, timing of travel, and opportunity to travel), which become facilitating or constraining factors that lead to travel participation or non-participation. Four different types of travel styles were emerged: day trips, travel to Korea, travel to iconic places of the United States, and religious and mission trips. This study provides a grounded theory that attempts to explain the complex nature of turning points and the impacts of turning point events on travel among first generation older Korean immigrants. ii DEDICATION To my parents, Jongsoon Ahn and Joonja Kim, my sisters and brother for their unconditional love and unlimited support. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my chairs, Dr. Francis McGuire and Dr. William Norman for their guidance for my dissertation. My two chairs have supported me with their patience, faith, and love during my Ph.D. program. They made my Ph.D. experience as a turning point in my life and encouraged me to set my new life goal to be a good teacher and researcher. Their persistent support and concerns throughout my graduate years would not be forgotten forever. I would also like to thank my committees, Dr. Kenneth Backman and Dr. DeWayne Moore for their feedback and advisement during various stages of my dissertation. Dr. Kenneth Backman has guided me to be attentive to learn about global understanding of tourism in class within cross-cultural class atmosphere. I also appreciate Dr. DeWayne Moore who has kindly advised best methods of my projects. I thank for his willingness and time to give me valuable advices. I truly thank my mentor, Dr. Megan Janke for her continuous support and kindness. Without her, I would not have been interested in the topic of my dissertation and completed all my work. Special thanks goes out to my best friends, Wei-jue Huang, Jungeun Kim, Hakjun Song, Namhyun Kim, Doohyun Hwang, Hwaseon Jeong, Moonkyeong Jeong, Hayang Choi, Bona Kim for their encouragement and support during my master and doctoral study.

  • Diversity of K-Pop: a Focus on Race, Language, and Musical Genre
    DIVERSITY OF K-POP: A FOCUS ON RACE, LANGUAGE, AND MUSICAL GENRE Wonseok Lee A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2018 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Esther Clinton Kristen Rudisill © 2018 Wonseok Lee All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Since the end of the 1990s, Korean popular culture, known as Hallyu, has spread to the world. As the most significant part of Hallyu, Korean popular music, K-pop, captivates global audiences. From a typical K-pop artist, Psy, to a recent sensation of global popular music, BTS, K-pop enthusiasts all around the world prove that K-pop is an ongoing global cultural flow. Despite the fact that the term K-pop explicitly indicates a certain ethnicity and language, as K- pop expanded and became influential to the world, it developed distinct features that did not exist in it before. This thesis examines these distinct features of K-pop focusing on race, language, and musical genre: it reveals how K-pop groups today consist of non-Korean musicians, what makes K-pop groups consisting of all Korean musicians sing in non-Korean languages, what kind of diverse musical genres exists in the K-pop field with two case studies, and what these features mean in terms of the discourse of K-pop today. By looking at the diversity of K-pop, I emphasize that K-pop is not merely a dance- oriented musical genre sung by Koreans in the Korean language.

  • Gender, Ethnicity, and Literature in Japan and Korea, 1930S–1950S
    Fissured Languages of Empire: Gender, Ethnicity, and Literature in Japan and Korea, 1930s–1950s Christina Yi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Christina Yi All rights reserved ABSTRACT Fissured Languages of Empire: Gender, Ethnicity, and Literature in Japan and Korea, 1930s–1950s Christina Yi This dissertation investigates how Japanese-language literature by Korean writers both emerged out of and stood in opposition to discourses of national language, literature, and identity. The project is twofold in nature. First, I examine the rise of Japanese-language literature by Korean colonial subjects in the late 1930s and early 1940s, reassessing the sociopolitical factors involved in the production and consumption of these texts. Second, I trace how postwar reconstructions of ethnic nationality gave rise to the specific genre of zainichi (lit. “residing in Japan”) literature. By situating these two valences together, I attempt to highlight the continuities among the established fields of colonial-period literature, modern Japanese literature, and modern Korean literature. Included in my analyses is a consideration of literature written by Japanese writers in Korea, transnational media and publishing culture in East Asia, the gender politics of national language, and the ways in which kōminka (imperialization) policies were neither limited to the colonized alone nor completely erased after 1945. Rather than view the boundaries between “Japanese” and “Korean” literature as fixed or self-evident, this study examines the historical construction of these categories as generative discourses embedded in specific social, material, and political conditions.
