  • 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.

    In the market where social media based on photos and videos such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, etc., has been prevalent, new voice-based social media has obtained popularity used by 1,000 people only in one year after it was launched, thus, it began to attract a lot of public attention. Living in the era where people easily feels tired of the video-based content a nd existing media methods as well as the rapid spread of COVID-19, celebrities started to connect at the same time and enjoy voice-based social media through the real-time streaming method with others of the same interest, and this effect has now r apidly spread. People are enthusiastic about voice-based social media, for the following reasons: In the sense that it allows people in various fields to communicate only with real-time “voices” based on the horizontal features; it eases psychological burden from the p erspective of users or content creators; the closed features permitting the entry only by invitation arises FOMO (Fear of Missi ng Out) to people; it allows multi-tasking while listening to the conversation because it belong to social media counting on voi ces only; it is not sensitive to “Like,” “Share” or “Follow” compared to other social networks, because its main purpose is in co nversation. However, the voice-based audio content encounters some limitations in the following aspects. It is difficult to carry out situat ion management when people break some community rules (regarding not making statements against the sensitive topics rel ated to the disadvantaged groups, women, third gender and colored people, as well as basic rules such as prohibition of abusi ve/offensive/obscene languages); It has weak search functions; It allows only real-time participation; It offers limited informa tion security.

    Gilbert SHANG NDI Faculty of Social Sciences, Universidad de los Andes Bogota, Colombia [email protected] WRITING THE WALL, RIGHTING THE WORLD. EXPLORING THE DIONYSIAN DIMENSIONS OF WALL GRAFFITI FROM THE AGORA TO FACEBOOK Recommended Citation: Shang Ndi, Gilbert. “Writing the Wall, Righting the World. Exploring the Dionysian Dimensions of Wall Graffiti from the Agora to Facebook.” Metacritic Journal for Comparative Studies and Theory 4.2 (2018): https://doi.org/10.24193/mjcst.2018.6.07 Abstract: The turn of the current century has witnessed the re-negotiation of materiality and the growing ascendancy of the virtual, the immaterial over the real or tangible. Though it would be presumptuous to claim that the virtual has totally assumed control over the real, it can be asserted that the figure of the wall as a transfusion between the real/virtual and the self/other has emerged between the two. Based on constructions of textuality articulated by theorists such as Roland Barthes and Friedrich Nietzsche, and a pastiche format that mimics the functionality of the wall of scription, this article brings together multiple enactments of mural scriptions that include the concrete, textual, textile, vegetative and the virtual in order to articulate the Dionysian property of wall-effects. It traces successive actualisations of the wall, analysing how the virtual Facebook wall assimilates and re-dynamizes the traits of the tangible walls through an array of intertextual/inter-medial modalities. Keywords: wall, graffiti, scription, wall-effects, abjection. Introduction The turn of the twenty-first century has witnessed the re-negotiation of materiality and the growing ascendancy of the virtual or immaterial over the real or tangible.

  • Authenticating the Fake: Linguistic Resources of Aegyo and Its Media Assessments
    Authenticating the fake: Linguistic resources of aegyo and its media assessments Kyuwon Moon Stanford University Abstract Cuteness has emerged among young women in East Asia as a way of performing youthfulness and freedom from the constraints of the traditional wise-mother ideal. However, it simultaneously limits women’s social independence in virtue of their docility and subordination. This paper focuses on a kind of cute, feminine act/attitude in South Korea known as aegyo, in which a manipulated cute act is performed to please others. Media create instantiations of aegyo, establishing the performance of “childish aegyo” as a gendered practice, and magnifying its exaggeratedly cute aspects. This childish style, with resources from immature language, has been enregistered as a new, authentic style of young women, and is featured in media events that police its form as they reproduce its role in the normative gender order. Introduction In the “Woman News” skit of the July 7, 2012 episode of SNL Korea, a Korean version of the U.S. late night sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live, the featured actress introduces a “woman’s speech translator machine,” which translates women’s words to “normal, comprehensible” words for men. The actress says to the machine, “Wow, this bag is really pretty,” which is immediately translated to “Buy me (this bag)” in an unnatural sounding automatic voice by the machine. She then says, “Honey, I am hungry,” and the machine again translates it as, “Buy me (food)” in the same automatic voice. Then, the actress says, “Oppa“ (a term of address for an older male) with an extremely elongated last syllable and wiggling tone, and in return the machine produces a high-pitched, girly, exaggerated voice saying, “Buy me (food),” also using the same elongation and the tonal contour as in the actress’s voice.

  • A History of Social Media
    2 A HISTORY OF SOCIAL MEDIA 02_KOZINETS_3E_CH_02.indd 33 25/09/2019 4:32:13 PM CHAPTER OVERVIEW This chapter and the next will explore the history of social media and cultural approaches to its study. For our purposes, the history of social media can be split into three rough-hewn temporal divisions or ages: the Age of Electronic Communications (late 1960s to early 1990s), the Age of Virtual Community (early 1990s to early 2000s), and the Age of Social Media (early 2000s to date). This chapter examines the first two ages. Beginning with the Arpanet and the early years of (mostly corpo- rate) networked communications, our history takes us into the world of private American online services such as CompuServe, Prodigy, and GEnie that rose to prominence in the 1980s. We also explore the internationalization of online services that happened with the publicly- owned European organizations such as Minitel in France. From there, we can see how the growth and richness of participation on the Usenet system helped inspire the work of early ethnographers of the Internet. As well, the Bulletin Board System was another popular and similar form of connection that proved amenable to an ethnographic approach. The research intensified and developed through the 1990s as the next age, the Age of Virtual Community, advanced. Corporate and news sites like Amazon, Netflix, TripAdvisor, and Salon.com all became recogniz- able hosts for peer-to-peer contact and conversation. In business and academia, a growing emphasis on ‘community’ began to hold sway, with the conception of ‘virtual community’ crystallizing the tendency.

Tan Zhan Wang St. Cloud State University Jing Hua Troy University ABSTRACT The relationship between social media usage and personality has received increased scrutiny recently. The current study studies international students’ organizational attachment through the exploration of their personality and usage of university social media. Participants were 51 international students from a Midwest State University and 49 domestic (U.S.) students for comparison purposes. Results showed some differences in the structure of personality, level of social media usage, and level of organizational attachment comparing international students and domestic students. Results also supported the complementary purpose of using social media for international students, where agreeableness and openness to experience are negatively associated with social media usage. Moreover, the relationship was stronger when students’ English proficiency is lower. An overall model demonstrated the relationship among international students’ personalities, university social media usage, and organizational attachment.
