  • Korean Wave As Cultural Imperialism
    Korean Wave as Cultural Imperialism A study of K-pop Reception in Vietnam Author: Duong Nguyen Hoai Phuong (s1623117) Supervisor: Dr. Namhee Han Leiden University MA Thesis Asian Studies (60 EC) 2 Introduction During my four years of college in Korea, I went back to my home country Vietnam a couple of times. Whenever I told people that I was studying in Korea, one of the most common reactions was: "Oh, so did you see any oppa?" It never took me more than two seconds to realize they were talking about K-pop idols. Interestingly, that question did not only come from underclassmen or children of my family's friends who aspire to follow my footsteps, I often got asked by many of the adults around me as well. Usually they would continue to ask why I chose to go to Korea, to which my older brother often jokingly answered: "Because she is a crazy K- pop fan." "Crazy" may not be the most equivalent English word, if anything it actually carries a much milder connotation. What my brother called me in Vietnamese was fan cuồng K-pop—a term no longer uncommon in Vietnamese colloquial language ever since the local media started to use it to label K-pop fans in Vietnam. Before having anything to do with K-pop, the word cuồng (/kʊəŋ/) in Vietnamese comes closest to describe an overly devout believer of a religion; thus "fanatical" seems to be a better translation. With such a negative connotation, I am certainly not happy with my brother's statement.

  • SNSD and the Art of Bridging The
    Situations Vol. 3 (Winter 2009) © 2009 by Yonsei University Mariah Junglan Min1 [email protected] The Art of Crossing the Line Although the intensive coverage provided to the new all-boy and all-girl bands through the Internet and in more traditional media such as television may make it seem as though such they have long dominated popular music, the current explosion in popularity of idol groups begun only two years ago. What is more, this is not the first time that such groups have stormed the K-pop charts. The first wave of massively popular idol groups was in the late 90s, when a veritable army of teens made their debut as singers. Korean multi-entertainment companies recognized the business potential in well-trained young and attractive stars, and the feverish reception from the public confirmed this. The result was that H.O.T., Sechs Kies, Shinhwa, Fin.K.L., S.E.S., and G.O.D. enjoyed chart success and outstanding album sales. Around 2002, this first golden age of idol groups came to an end. Most of the first wave of idols split up, while some individual members went on to pursue solo careers. Although some groups did continue, with Shinhwa performing as recently as 2008, the moment of the idol group seemed to have passed. For a short time, the K-pop scene was now host to a series of successful solo artists, such as Rain and Yi Hyo-ri, the latter a former member of the all-girl band Fin.K.L. In 2004, the first forerunners of the second wave began to appear, with TVXQ, for example, releasing their first single that year.

  • SOAS-AKS Working Papers in Korean Studies No. 33 the K-‐Pop Boom
    School of Oriental and African Studies University of London SOAS-AKS Working Papers in Korean Studies No. 33 The K-Pop Boom in Taiwan Sang-Yeon Sung http://www.soas.ac.uk/japankorea/research/soas-aks-papers/ The K-Pop Boom in Taiwan Sang-Yeon Sung (University of Vienna) © 2012 Introduction Many people consider K-pop – the term being an abbreviation of Korean pop – to be one of the most successful Asian pop musics today. Its popularity and the popularity of its performers have spread not only within the region, but to many Western countries. If the first ‘Korean wave’ was centered in the popularity of Korean soap operas, such as Winter Sonata and Daejangkeum, the second ‘Korean wave’ is about K-pop and K-pop idols, such as Super Junior and Girls’ Generation. In both waves, Taiwan has played an important role in the dissemination of Korean popular culture within the region. Therefore, the K-pop boom in contemporary Taiwan is worthy of examination (after Moskowitz 2011: 4). This paper, based on ethnographic research in Taiwan, discusses the role of the Taiwanese music industry and Taiwanese music fans in the dissemination of K-pop, both in Taiwan and in other Chinese-speaking areas. The sources used are mainly interviews with fans, TV producers, music industry leaders, and officials of the Tourism Bureau in the Ministry of Transportation and Communications of the Republic of China, and have been conducted since March 2000. Taiwan: The Contact Zone of East Asian Pop Music Academic research on the popular culture of East Asia has typically focused on explaining the success of Japanese and Korean genres and styles (Huang 2011; Iwabuchi 2006; Kim 2005; Shim 2006; Sung 2008; Ubonrat & Shin 2007), leaving Taiwan unexplored.

  • 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.

  • BTS, Digital Media, and Fan Culture
    19 Hyunshik Ju Sungkyul University, South Korea Premediating a Narrative of Growth: BTS, Digital Media, and Fan Culture This article explores the landscape of fan engagements with BTS, the South Korean idol group. It offers a new approach to studying digital participation in fan culture. Digital fan‐based activity is singled out as BTS’s peculiarity in K‐pop’s history. Grusin’s discussion of ‘premediation’ is used to describe an autopoietic system for the construction of futuristic reality through online communication between BTS and ARMY, as the fans are called. As such, the BTS’s live performance is experienced through ARMY’s premediation, imaging new identities of ARMY as well as BTS. The way that fans engage digitally with BTS’s live performance is motivated by a narrative of growth of BTS with and for ARMY. As an agent of BTS’s success, ARMY is crucial in driving new economic trajectories for performative products and their audiences, radically intervening in the shape and scope of BTS’s contribution to a global market economy. Hunshik Ju graduated with Doctor of Korean Literature from Sogang University in South Korea. He is currently a full‐time lecturer at the department of Korean Literature and Language, Sungkyul University. Keywords: BTS, digital media fan culture, liveness, premediation Introduction South Korean (hereafter Korean) idol group called Bulletproof Boy AScouts (hereafter BTS) delivered a speech at the launch of “Generation Unlimited,” United Nations Children’s Fund’s (UNICEF) new youth agenda, at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 24, 2018. In his speech, BTS’s leader Kim Nam Jun (also known as “RM”) stressed the importance of self-love by stating that one must love oneself wholeheartedly regardless of the opinions and judgments of others.1 Such a message was not new to BTS fans, since the group’s songs usually raise concerns and reflections about young people’s personal growth.

  • Hallyu at a Crossroads: the Clash of Korea's Soft Power Success and China's Hard Power Threat in Light of Terminal High
    Asian International Studies Review Vol. 18 No.1 (June 2017): 153-169 153 Received March 15, 2017 Revised May 10, 2017 Accepted May 20, 2017 Hallyu at a Crossroads: The Clash of Korea’s Soft Power Success and China’s Hard Power Threat in Light of Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) System Deployment HANNAH JUN* The past two decades have witnessed the remarkable success of Hallyu, or the Korean Wave, with Korea welcoming a large influx of foreign visitors and benefiting from massive consumption of products ranging from Korean television and film, K-pop and lifestyle products. A more recent announcement by CJ E&M points to an even more aggressive plan for regional ubiquity, as encapsulated by Hallyu 4.0. Simultaneously, we have already felt some of the effect of policy changes in China – a core Hallyu market – as a response to Korea’s plan to deploy a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system. In this sense, we see the stirrings of a clash between Korean soft power and Chinese hard power, and are uncertain who will emerge on top. This paper examines the broad success of Hallyu from key theoretical perspectives, while addressing linkages between Korean corporations and cultural power/influence that have led to an announcement such as Hallyu 4.0. This paper also highlights the recent tensions between Korea and China, specifically with respect to THAAD deployment, and outlines potential implications for businesses and policymakers through preliminary scenarios.
