    [Korea] Entertainment April 6, 2021 HYBE Corporation Buy (352820 KS ) (Initiate) Evolving into a major platform player TP: W340,000 Upside: 37.1% Mirae Asset Securities Co., Ltd. Jeong -yeob Park [email protected] Valuation and recommendation Initiate coverage with Buy and TP of W340,000 We derived our target market value of W13tr for HYBE Corporation (HYBE; formerly Big Hit Entertainment) by applying a P/E of 60x to our 2021-22F average net profit attributa ble to owners of the parent (W218.6bn). Our target multiple stems from our view of HYBE as the leading fan platform provider (with direct and indirect access to top global artists). Post-IPO, HYBE has traded at between 27x and 45x P/E (20% premium to the upper band of the three major domestic entertainment stocks). In our view, a re-rating is due. The company has expanded its artist portfolio through partnerships with Universal Music Group (UMG)/YG Entertainment and its 100% acquisition of Ithaca Holdings. This should allow it to further strengthen the market position of its platforms. Value of fan platform s to come Weverse/Weverse Shop: Millennials/Gen Z -driven platforms poised for exponential growth in into view profits and users In our view, the emergence of direct-to-fan platforms was inevitable, given the new normal of contactless interactions and the distinct content power/strong fan engagement of music. (Music channels account for 40% of YouTube traffic.) HYBE has brought platforms and labels into its fold at lightning speed, creating a sizable lead over potential competition in terms of technology and content.

  • Newsletter 3
    Fall/Winter 2018 Foundation Built on Jesus Christ Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 For over 70 years our hallways have been filled with students living in their unique culture. Parents have had other educational options available to them, but they have chosen Sunnyside Christian School. While our culture is constantly changing, the mission at Sunnyside Christian is the same as it has always been: to provide a Christ-centered, Bible-based quality edu- cation for distinctly Christian living. We continue to look forward to another 70 years of educating the young people of this community. The questions we continually struggle with as a school community are “How can we best serve our students? Do we need better technology and equipment? Should we try new and different academic programs?” The answer is “Yes.” However, that shouldn’t be our primary focus because things change and im- prove, and we can’t continually chase after the newest thing. Our focus needs to be on what makes us different. That difference is being a Christian school. That means we are intentional about what we are doing and how we are teach- ing from a Christian worldview. Our worldview answers questions about God, humanity, morality, and wisdom/knowledge. Other questions include: How are things supposed to be? What is the problem with them now? What is the solution to those problems? Through our educational model we are able to see God, that He loves us, and how God is involved in His creation.

  • A Feminist Political Economy of the Korean Popular Music Industry
    A Feminist Political Economy of the Korean Popular Music Industry by Hyejin Jo M.A., Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, 2016 B.A., Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, 2013 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Communication Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology © Hyejin Jo 2019 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2019 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Hyejin Jo Degree: Master of Arts Title: A Feminist Political Economy of the Korean Popular Music Industry Examining Committee: Chair: Daniel Ahadi Lecturer Dal Yong Jin Senior Supervisor Professor Martin Laba Supervisor Associate Professor Ju Oak Kim External Examiner Assistant Professor Department of Psychology and Communication College of Arts and Sciences at Texas A&M International University Date Defended/Approved: July 12, 2019 ii Abstract Gender disparity is an emerging issue in contemporary South Korea. 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.

  • Through the Night Los Angeles Is One Big Laboratory for the Dance-Floor Sounds of the Future
    newsroom Scene and Passion Sep 7, 2018 Through the night Los Angeles is one big laboratory for the dance-floor sounds of the future. We join German star DJ Moguai on a nocturnal expedition to the coolest clubs in the city. The heavy iron door on Melrose Avenue opens as if by magic. Muffled beats pound through the night. A sign in the courtyard promises “Paradise” while cushioned seating outside a white bungalow evokes a lounge-like atmosphere. This studio complex is a hot address in Los Angeles. It belongs to Fernando Garibay, a music producer with Mexican roots whose clients include Kylie Minogue, Shakira, and U2. He also produced the album Born This Way with Lady Gaga. A creator of both electronic tracks and international chart hits, his work has been nominated for numerous Grammys. Sitting at the mixer in the rear of the studio is Moguai. His real name is André Tegeler, and he comes from the German city of Marl in the Ruhr District. At one time he was the youngest journeyman butcher in Germany’s most densely populated state, North Rhine- Westphalia. Since the mid-1990s he has been traveling the world as a DJ. And now he’s a star. His “Punx” sound is sought after the world over, and he takes part in all the major electro festivals around the globe. His productions for the Sugababes, Girls Aloud, and 2raumwohnung have gone gold and double platinum. In 2014 he received the “Song of the Year” award for his club productions from the largest online music store.
