  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

    ENGLISH ATTRITION IN KOREAN-ENGLISH BILINGUAL CHILDREN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN LINGUISTICS AUGUST 2011 By Sang-Gu Kang Dissertation Committee: William O’Grady, Chairperson Kamil Ud Deen Luca Onnis Bonnie D. Schwartz Kimi Kondo-Brown © 2011, Sang-Gu Kang I ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It would have been impossible to complete this dissertation without the help of a great many people and organizations. I owe so much to my chair, William O’Grady, who trained me to become a linguist and encouraged me to always aim high. His generous support and expertise help fueled everything from experiment designs to data analysis and writing. I will always remember his challenging, but warm-hearted guidance. I would like to extend my deepest and sincere appreciation to my committee members. This work owes a lot to their support and valuable comments. I was able to expand my background knowledge of language acquisition and experiment procedures when I was taking Kamil Ud Deen’s classes in the first couple of years in the program. Also, his kind support was always encouraging. I also thank Luca Onnis for his expertise in bilingualism. It was when I was taking his class that I was able to encounter a lot of literature and start thinking about how I should introduce my work. Then, the enthusiasm of Bonnie D. Schwartz inside and outside the classroom always inspired me. Her relentless work ethic and analytic skills were admirable.

  • John Legend and Salamishah Tillet in Conversation on the Artist's Duty
    Apollo Theater Presents John Legend and Salamishah Tillet in Conversation On the Artist’s Duty Wednesday, September 23 at 7pm On Apollo’s Digital Stage “An artist’s duty, as far as I’m concerned, is to reflect the times. I think that is true of painters, sculptors, poets, musicians. As far as I’m concerned, it’s their choice, but I CHOOSE to reflect the times and situations in which I find myself.” – Nina Simone Harlem, NY – September 8, 2020 – On September 23 at 7:00pm ET, the Apollo Theater presents In Conversation: John Legend and Salamishah Tillet. The event will be presented free of charge on the Apollo Digital Stage at www.ApolloTheater.org. Inspired by their mutual role model Nina Simone and her thoughts on the artist’s duty to reflect contemporary issues, Legend and Tillet will discuss art and social justice, the roots of Legend’s activism and what he believes the responsibilities of artists are at this critical moment in American history. For over 86 years, the Apollo has served as an incubator for social and civic advocacy in Harlem, and the Black community at-large. This conversation extends the non-profit Theater’s commitment to using its internationally renowned stage to amplify Black voices and stimulate timely conversations on race and social justice. To RSVP for the program, visit this link. Multiplatinum recording artist, composer, activist, and philanthropist John Legend has been an outspoken champion of civil and human rights.
