SUSPENDED SPECTACULARS It might sound like a harsh concept, drilling a hole right through a dazzling diamond. What seems to be a damaging design idea yields a very wearable and wondrous piece of jewelry. First, a near invisible hole is drilled right through the diamond. Then, a delicate strand of precious metal is threaded right through, creating the illusion of a magically floating gemstone. Whether glistening across your neckline or gleaming from your earlobes, drilled diamond jewelry might just be the next necessary addition to your jewelry wardrobe. We recommend trying on a drilled diamond piece in rose gold for something fresh! 6] BREMER JEWELRY MAGAZINE Sweet, simple and stylish, Hearts On Fire brings us these pebble-like designs a delicate yet captivating in smooth yellow gold are new design called “Petal”. a must-have.

EARTHBOUND The natural world has always been an important inspiration for jewelry designers, a very prominent motif. From the strength of stones to the healing powers of water, the bows and bends of nature lend themselves to the artform of jewelry. This year, we fell in love with three inspirations: stones, water, and the four-petaled flower. Stones symbolize endurance, stability, and permanence. Raindrops are a symbol of a change in season or a new beginning. The four-petaled flower is a symbol of wholeness and union. Which nature symbol best represents your celebrations of 2019?

Stacking a customized combination of bracelets can create a signature look for whatever the day brings. Heading into a hard week at work? Personalize your power punch with a sleek timepiece, a couple thick ropes of silver and a pop of color for confidence and fun. Maybe it’s a sunny Saturday with the family… build a trendy stack with your newest Shinola, that diamond bangle you bought for your fabulous self, and the PANDORA bracelet your daughter picked out last Mother’s Day.

  • Conceptually Androgynous
    Umeå Center for Gender Studies Conceptually androgynous The production and commodification of gender in Korean pop music Petter Almqvist-Ingersoll Master Thesis in Gender Studies Spring 2019 Thesis supervisor: Johanna Overud, Ph. D. ABSTRACT Stemming from a recent surge in articles related to Korean masculinities, and based in a feminist and queer Marxist theoretical framework, this paper asks how gender, with a specific focus on what is referred to as soft masculinity, is constructed through K-pop performances, as well as what power structures are in play. By reading studies on pan-Asian masculinities and gender performativity - taking into account such factors as talnori and kkonminam, and investigating conceptual terms flower boy, aegyo, and girl crush - it forms a baseline for a qualitative research project. By conducting qualitative interviews with Swedish K-pop fans and performing semiotic analysis of K-pop music videos, the thesis finds that although K-pop masculinities are perceived as feminine to a foreign audience, they are still heavily rooted in a heteronormative framework. Furthermore, in investigating the production of gender performativity in K-pop, it finds that neoliberal commercialism holds an assertive grip over these productions and are thus able to dictate ‘conceptualizations’ of gender and project identities that are specifically tailored to attract certain audiences. Lastly, the study shows that these practices are sold under an umbrella of ‘loyalty’ in which fans are incentivized to consume in order to show support for their idols – in which the concept of desire plays a significant role.

  • JEWELRY INDUSTRY IMPACTS a Comparative Case Study of Gold in Peru and Diamonds in Botswana
    JEWELRY INDUSTRY IMPACTS A Comparative Case Study of Gold in Peru and Diamonds in Botswana American University’s School of International Service Alexandra Brown, Flora Green, Bwalya Mwaba, Aubrey Peterson & Andre Thomas December 2017 Executive Summary This paper was produced in accordance with a Statement of Work (SOW) issued by the U.S. Department of State and Jóia Consulting to understand the impacts of the diamond industry in Botswana and the gold industry in Peru along their respective value chains. Human security elements will be mapped and assessed in the below analysis, leading to a comparative study and a recommendation for a future Jewelry Development Impact Index (JDII), based on interviews with industry actors, independent desk research, and qualitative assessments. The six sectors that we focused on in our research were based on the United Nations’ Human Security Approach, including: (1) sociocultural, (2) political, (3) economic, (4) human rights, (5) health, and (6) environmental. Key Findings After examining the industry’s sociocultural impacts along the value chain in Botswana and Peru, ethnic compilation, group grievances, and uneven development are the most significant for the JDII. • In both nations, the indigenous populations have been eliminated from the political dialogue in regard to the jewelry industry. Despite this, there are little ethnic and social tensions in Peru and Botswana, unlike other mineral rich nations. Of the political impacts of the jewelry industry, we found that governance, integrity, and civil society participation are the most significant factors for the creation of the JDII. Overall, Botswana has more robust accountability mechanisms and procedures to seek public input on its natural resource governance policies.

  • Analysis of the Global-Local-Global Strategy in K-Pop Music Videos
    Analysis of the global-local-global strategy in K-pop music videos Yasmine El Ouahi Hajji Tutor: Núria Vergés Bosch Bachelor’s Degree in International Business Faculty of Economics and Business University of Barcelona ABSTRACT K-pop music videos are a global sensation that are breaking YouTube streaming records since the virality of the hit single ‘Gangnam Style’ by PSY in 2012. After that, South Korean pop music artists and bands such as BTS or BLACKPINK kept dominating international charts and winning the admiration of millions of fans through their music videos. According to academic researchers, this was made possible because of a unique internationalization strategy called global-local-global which consists of the hybridity of cultural product by combining global production factors to a South Korean product with the goal of reaching an international audience by using a foreign distributor channel (YouTube). To understand the characteristics and evolution of this method, K-pop music videos with most YouTube views of each year from 2012 up to 2020 where analyzed. The aspects discussed and their respective evolution throughout the years were the nationality of the K-pop music videos producers, the identification of Korean and foreign elements in the visuals, the use of English in the lyrics, music style, the artists looks and also the use of YouTube digital tools. From the analysis of the music videos, the factors that did help with the popularity of K-pop where the progressive increase of English in the lyrics compared to Korean, the quality camerawork and great scenography together with the use of choreographies and YouTube hashtags and subtitles.

Despite the significant increase in gendered concerns, there has been a lack of discussion on gender inequality problems in the Korean popular music industry. For this reason, this thesis aims to investigate gender inequalities and power relations embedded in the male-dominated Korean popular music industry by analyzing the texts, images and music of Korean girl groups through the lens of a feminist political economy. In doing so, this study utilizes textual analysis in order to examine how gendered hierarchy and patriarchal power, acting as industrial practices, exploit Korean girl groups in the Korean popular music industry.

  • Juvenile Protection and Sexual Objectification: Analysis of the Performance Frame in Korean Music Television Broadcasts1
    ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 16, NO. 2, DECEMBER 2013: 329–365 JUVENILE PROTECTION AND SEXUAL OBJECTIFICATION: ANALYSIS OF THE PERFORMANCE FRAME IN KOREAN 1 MUSIC TELEVISION BROADCASTS By CEDARBOUGH T. SAEJI2 The wide-spread sexual objectification of women in Korean popular music performance subconsciously teaches men and boys that women and girls are sexual objects that exist to please them. Simultaneously sexual objectification disempowers girls and women by emphasizing superficial beauty. Although many decisions related to K- pop choreography, costumes, or lyrics may be attributed to music management companies, this article analyzes how music television programs Inkigayo (Seoul Broadcasting System) and Music Core (Munhwa Broadcasting Company) contribute to the sexual objectification of women through the ways that emcees frame performances and the ways the camera draws attention to sexualized body parts. In August 2012 racy performances by the girl group Kara raised public debate and spurred calls for amendments to the Juvenile Protection Law. At that time commentary focused on the impact of sexually provocative performances on young people. The law places responsibility for monitoring content onto the content producers and broadcasters, yet frame analysis of Kara’s performances, compared with performances in early 2013, demonstrated that neither Inkigayo nor Music Core had changed the sexually objectifying performance frame on their shows. The final version of the revised law, 1 This research was supported by Hankuk University of Foreign Studies Research Fund of 2013. 2 Author’s Note: Thank you to the editor and enormously helpful anonymous reviewers at Acta Koreana as well as friends and colleagues with whom I discussed aspects of this paper: my gratitude to Logan Clark, Timothy Gitzen, Meredith Perry, Jungwon Kim, Jisoo Hyun, Thea Suh, Go Gwanyeong, and the audience for my presentation at the 2013 International Association for the Study of Popular Music conference.
