  • The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011
    The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 by Sunyoung Yang A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sunyoung Yang Year of 2015 The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 Sunyoung Yang Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2015 Abstract In this dissertation I will shed light on the interwoven process between Internet development and neoliberalization in South Korea, and I will also examine the formation of new subjectivities of Internet users who are also becoming neoliberal subjects. In particular, I examine the culture of the South Korean Internet freak community of DCinside.com and the phenomenon I have dubbed “loser aesthetics.” Throughout the dissertation, I elaborate on the meaning-making process of self-reflexive mockery including the labels “Internet freak” and “surplus (human)” and gender politics based on sexuality focusing on gender ambiguous characters, called Nunhwa, as a means of collective identity-making, and I explore the exploitation of unpaid immaterial labor through a collective project making a review book of a TV drama Painter of the Wind. The youth of South Korea emerge as the backbone of these creative endeavors as they try to find their place in a precarious labor market that has changed so rapidly since the 1990s that only the very best succeed, leaving a large group of disenfranchised and disillusioned youth. I go on to explore the impact of late industrialization and the Asian financial crisis, and the nationalistic desire not be left behind in the age of informatization, but to be ahead of the curve.

  • 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.

  • The K-Pop Wave: an Economic Analysis
    The K-pop Wave: An Economic Analysis Patrick A. Messerlin1 Wonkyu Shin2 (new revision October 6, 2013) ABSTRACT This paper first shows the key role of the Korean entertainment firms in the K-pop wave: they have found the right niche in which to operate— the ‘dance-intensive’ segment—and worked out a very innovative mix of old and new technologies for developing the Korean comparative advantages in this segment. Secondly, the paper focuses on the most significant features of the Korean market which have contributed to the K-pop success in the world: the relative smallness of this market, its high level of competition, its lower prices than in any other large developed country, and its innovative ways to cope with intellectual property rights issues. Thirdly, the paper discusses the many ways the K-pop wave could ensure its sustainability, in particular by developing and channeling the huge pool of skills and resources of the current K- pop stars to new entertainment and art activities. Last but not least, the paper addresses the key issue of the ‘Koreanness’ of the K-pop wave: does K-pop send some deep messages from and about Korea to the world? It argues that it does. Keywords: Entertainment; Comparative advantages; Services; Trade in services; Internet; Digital music; Technologies; Intellectual Property Rights; Culture; Koreanness.

  • B a B Iii Pemaknaan Maskulinitas Dalam
    B A B III PEMAKNAAN MASKULINITAS DALAM TAYANGAN WANNA ONE GO IN JEJU Wanna One Go in Jeju merupakan suatu tayangan realitas yang menggambarkan kehidupan Wanna One sebagai seorang artis yang akan mengiklankan produk kecantikan dari brand Innisfree. Tayangan tersebut disiarkan melalui media massa berbasis online, sehingga masyarakat luar Korea pun juga bisa mengakses video tersebut dengan mudah. Media massa berperan sebagai alat penyampaian pesan kepada masyarakat yang mampu membentuk pemaknaan masyarakat. Oleh sebab itu, dalam suatu tayangan biasanya menyimpan suatu makna yang ingin disampaikan kepada masyarakat dan nantinya mampu menjadi suatu hegemoni. Begitu pula dengan Wanna One Go in Jeju yang tentunya juga memiliki pesan yang ingin disampaikan kepada masyarakat. Selain untuk mengiklankan produk Innisfree, tayangan ini juga memberikan pesan tentang maskulinitas laki-laki yang digambarkan oleh member Wanna One. Bab ini mencoba menjelaskan maskulinitas dalam tayangan Wanna One Go in Jeju dengan menggunakan analisis semiotika John Fiske, yaitu melalui level realitas, representasi, dan ideologi. Pada level realitas, teks akan dianalisis seperti penampilan (appearance), kostum (dress), lingkungan, tingkah laku (behavior), cara berbicara (speech), gesture, ekspresi, dan juga suara (Fiske, 1987:4). Setiap scene yang sesuai dengan kategori di atas. Level representasi menganilis hal-hal teknis seperti kamera, pencahayaan, editing, musik, dan suara (Fiske, 1987:4). Terakhir adalah level ideologi yang mencakup hal-hal yang diorganisasikan ke dalam koherensi dan penerimaan sosial oleh kode-kode ideologis seperti individualisme, patriarki, ras, kelas, materialisme, kapitalisme, dan lain-lain. (Fiske, 1987:3). Level ideologi didapatkan melalui hasil analisis pada level realitas dan representasi. Tayangan ini terdiri atas tiga episode dan beberapa scene diantaranya telah dipilih sesuai dengan fokus penelitian.

  • East Asian and Western Perception of Nature in 20Th Century Painting
    East Asian and Western Perception of Nature in 20th Century Painting Sungsil Park Ph.D. 2009 1 East Asian and Western Perception of Nature in 20th Century Painting Park Sung-Sil A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the University of Brighton for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2009 University of Brighton 2 Abstract The introduction aims to investigate both my painting and exhibition practice, and the historical and theoretical issues raised by them. It also examines different views on nature by comparing and contrasting 20th Century Western ideas with those of traditional Asian art and philosophies. There are two sections to this thesis; Section A contains an historical overview of Eastern and Western philosophy and art, Section B presents observations on my studio and exhibition practice. Section A is divided into two chapters. Chapter 1 examines concepts of nature in the East and West before the early 20th Century. It discusses examples of different approaches to nature and cross-cultural world views and explores the diversity of perceptions, especially Taoism and Buddhism, which emphasize harmony within nature and the principle of universal truth. It also gives pertinent and relevant examples of attitudes to nature in the Korean, Chinese and Japanese art of the 20th Century. Chapter 2 discusses new and changing attitudes to ecology, post 20th Century, and the environmental art movements of the East and West. Their ideas have a great deal in common with traditional Eastern views on nature and the mind, so have the potential to change both our identity and our relationship with nature.
