  • 58 Bab Iii Analisis Cda Fairclough Korean Wave 3.1
    BAB III ANALISIS CDA FAIRCLOUGH KOREAN WAVE 3.1. Kemunculan dan Perkembangan Hallyu Kemunculan Korea Selatan sebagai negara yang memproduksi budaya populer tidak langsung serta merta dalam kemunculannya. Sebagai negara yang terlibat perang dengan Korea Utara, Korea Selatan tentunya mengalami berbagai kehancuran akibat dampak perang. Peperangan yang dialami oleh Korea Selatan inilah yang membuka sedikit ruang dalam perkembangan industri hiburan Korea Selatan yang saat ini semakin mengokohkan dirinya. Sejarah mencatat Korea Selatan terlibat perang hingga melibatkan bantuan militer dari dunia Internasional. Korea Selatan mengalami masa kependudukan Jepang pada tahun 1910 -1945 dan perang Korea antara utara dan selatan yang berlangsung pada tahun 1950 – 1953. Adanya pasukan militer asing yang masuk ke Korea Selatan menyebabkan unsur-unsur asing yang memasuki Korea Selatan seperti masuknya agama baru hingga sampai jenis musik asing yang diadopsi. Sebelumnya, Korea yang masih bersifat tradisional penuh dengan pengaruh Buddha, Konfusius, dan pengaruh Tiongkok. Prajurit asing di Korea Selatan membawa masuk pengaruh jenis musik baru di Korea Selatan. Musik Korea Selatan mulai dipengaruhi oleh musik musik—American folk, lush ballads, rock, French chansons, Italian canzone; musik Latin, Cuban, dan Japanese enka1 Perjalanan Korean wave sebagai budaya populer yang menjadi komoditas global melalui perjalanan panjang.

Namun, justru pasca krisis moneter itulah industri hiburan Korea Selatan dapat bangkit. Di awal berdirinya Korea Selatan sebagai negara, industri hiburan sama sekali tidak mendapat ruang gerak yang bebas, justru lebih dikendalikan oleh pemerintah.

  • Marriage and Love in the Palestinian Camps of Jordan (1948-2001)
    FRAGILE INTIMACIES:MARRIAGE AND LOVE IN THE PALESTINIAN CAMPS OF JORDAN (1948–2001) ST´EPHANIE LATTE ABDALLAH This article focuses on conjugal love as an articulated, lived emotion; on relationships between spouses within the context of the family; and on how these emotions and relations have changed over time in Pales- tinian refugee camps in Jordan. Based on interviews with four gener- ations of Palestinian camp women, the article charts evolving marital patterns and attitudes toward marriage in relation to changing po- litical circumstances and diverse influences. Particular emphasis is given to the third generation and the emergence of individualiza- tion of choice and its consequences. The influence of the family and the role of protection in the formation of conjugal bonds are also addressed. ALTHOUGH FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS inform almost all social interactions, not to mention individual and group agency, they have traditionally been curiously absent from studies of marriage patterns and the history of the marital bond. Since the mid-1980s, some groundbreaking works have appeared that illu- minate the social context and patterning of emotion and sentiment—showing how they shape power relations and underpin symbolic exchanges—but these studies focus mainly on Europe and the West.1 When it comes to the Middle East, the role of emotions remains largely ignored. This article will focus on conjugal love as an articulated, lived emotion; on relationships between spouses within the context of the family; and on how these emotions and relations have changed over time in Palestinian refugee camps in Jordan. In the refugee camps, the weight of traumatic collective history and “community-becoming” has deeply affected individual stories and agencies.

  • Things I Wish I'd Known Before We Got Married
    Leader Guide for Things I Wish I’d Known Before We Got Married Leader Guide for Things I Wish I’d Known Before We Got Married 1 TIPS FOR LEADING A SMALL GROUP Introduction • Plan—decide when to meet, where, and how long each session will be. And for how long will your group meet? open-ended? six weeks? (It might make a difference to those who consider joining.) • Some of the chapters of Things I Wish I’d Known Before We Got Married are short, especially the first few. You might have your group be prepared to discuss two or three chapters per meeting at first and see how it goes. Be flexible. • Create a safe environment so participants will know anything personal they might share will remain in the group. • Encourage participation by asking questions: “Anyone want to add to that?” “Does anyone else have a different idea?” • Make sure participants feel listened to; use eye contact, paraphrase, echo, restate what they say. Or, “If I understand you correctly, you’re saying … ” • Try why or how questions to follow up. • Stay on track, but if the discussion goes a different way than you expected but is still on topic and helpful, let it go. However, you don’t want the discussion to get way off the subject you’ve come to discuss! • Don’t be afraid of silence while people are thinking; don’t jump in too quickly just to fill it. • If you have a dominating person who feels he or she must answer every question, try calling on someone else (carefully—not everyone is comfortable with this); or go around the circle and ask everyone for a response; or say, “Thanks, John, that’s interesting; can you hold that thought and we’ll get back to you?” • Disagreement isn’t something to avoid.

  • Tara Describes Justin's Nightmares and Triggers
    Tara describes Justin’s nightmares and triggers Tara: My name is Tara, and I’m married to Justin for almost four years. December 2nd of 2006, he called me and he woke me up at like 7 in the morning Minnesota time, and I could just tell instantly something was wrong and he just said, “There’s been a terrible accident and one guy didn’t make it and the other guy is not doing too well.” He was calling to let me know they’re going to be shutting the phones down and he just wanted me to know that I probably wouldn’t hear from him for a while, but it would probably start showing up on the news. I mean, I’ll never forget just where I was and how that felt. That was the first time that the unit had lost a guy, so it was a very powerful day that completely just altered things. When he was home, there were little things that made him jump. My parents live off a dirt road, so when we’d go from the pavement to the dirt road he’d tense up and he’d kind of lean forward because driving tanks in Iraq he’s very used to being alert to look for bombs and things that are out of the ordinary. So, it was like little things like that that I could tell were triggering things in him. When we got married, he woke up a lot at night and he would just like kind of grab me and hold me close because he thought something was about to happen to me, so I would have to like wake him up and calm him down and, “We’re fine.

  • Domestic Hallyu: K-Pop Metatexts and the Media's Self-Reflexive Gesture
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 2308–2331 1932–8036/20170005 Domestic Hallyu: K-Pop Metatexts and the Media’s Self-Reflexive Gesture MICHELLE CHO1 McGill University, Canada Television serves as a crucial medium for shaping the South Korean public’s response to the success of hallyu, or the Korean Wave, in news reports, variety shows, and celebrity interview programs. Further, in the last decade, several K-pop idols have been cast in serial narrative television shows that fictionalize hallyu creative industries. These metatextual shows domesticate transnational idol pop celebrities by contributing layers of televisual intimacy to their star personae and by seeming to expose the inner workings of the entertainment industries. This essay focuses on two notable examples, Dream High (2011, KBS2) and Answer Me 1997 (2012, tvN), to consider what this proliferation of popular narratives about media production and reception on South Korean television signifies. I argue that the intertextual presentation of K-pop on Korean television negotiates a complex relationship between popular culture and public culture in South Korea. The metatextual relay revealed in these shows—what I characterize as the media’s self-reflexive critical gesture—provides access to the ideological impasses of the attempt to produce intimate national publics through globalized contents. Keywords: metatextuality, television, K-drama, K-pop, hallyu, Korean Wave If the ideological function of mass culture is understood as a process whereby otherwise dangerous and protopolitical impulses are “managed” and defused, rechanneled and offered spurious objects, then some preliminary step must also be theorized in which these same impulses—the raw material upon which the process works—are initially awakened within the very text that seeks to still them.
