My 2019/2020 TRAPE is about Korean Entertainment! I have been into K-Pop for almost 3 years and I have always been researching lots of things about Korean celebrities, their activities and their TV shows. Since I was a child, I have always been very curious about the Asian culture, even though I thought they were gangster. As I grew up, I have become more and more connected to their culture. Then, at the end of 2016, I listened to my first K-Pop song ever. I was 10 years old and I was in primary school when I got to know EXO, the first group I listened to. They had a big impact in my life because in that moment I was struggling mentally and physically... The only thing that made me happy, was listening to their songs! They would make feel better in every way possible, once I listened to some music, I’d completely forget about my worries. It was always the best part of my days. That is why I have grown attached to K-Pop songs, dances and singers. Table of contents WHAT WERE THE MOST FAMOUS SERIES (KOREAN DRAMAS)? (2019) IS IT POPULAR IN OTHER COUNTRIES?

  • Crash Landing on Abnormality: Thought Fragments About "Crash Landing on You"
    Conflict, Justice, Decolonization: Critical Studies of Inter-Asian Societies (2020) 2709-5479 Crash Landing on Abnormality: Thought Fragments About "Crash Landing on You" Jeong-a KIM Philo Academy (Seoul, South Korea) Crash landing on you is a South Korean cable television drama that depicts the love story between a North Korean Captain Ri Jeong-hyeok and the Conglomerate heiress Yoon Se-ri, who crashed in North Korea due to a paragliding accident. In this article, I explored and followed abnormalities, using Canguilhem and Foucault’s concepts, in the life of Yoon Se-ri in North Korea and in the life of Ri Jeong-hyeok and his subordinates in South Korea. I also analyzed characters in this soap opera through the perspective of three types of abnormalities inspired by Foucault’s concept of abnormality. Keywords: Canguilhem, Foucault, Abnormality, Norms, Crash Landing on You, North Korea Introduction Crash Landing on You is a South Korean drama that depicts the love story between the Korean People’s Army (KPA) Captain Ri Jeong-hyeok, North Korean with a hectic past, and the Conglomerate heiress Yoon Se-ri, South Korean who crashed on North Korean soil due to a paragliding accident that was caused by a sudden tornado. As the drama describes North Korea’s customs and diverseness, and because of its geographic proximity and socio-cultural differences, it arouses curiosity about North Korea among South Koreans. In this article, I explored and followed what Canguilhem and Foucault called abnormalities in the life ​ of the heroine Yoon Se-ri in North Korea and the life of Ri Jeong-hyeok and his subordinates in South Korea.

It was everything we had only seen and heard in the tales of history and never had remotely dreamt to be such a part of our well-planned adventures. Things changed, from physical contact to virtual meetups, and so did we. Perhaps, the only thing which remained constant were the under appreciated seasons. Summer. Spring. Monsoon. Autumn. Winter!

  • Crash Landing on You” Towards North Korea
    Acuity: Journal of English Language Pedagogy, Literature, and Culture. Vol.6 No.2 2021 https://jurnal.unai.edu/index.php/acuity Media Framing in South Korean Drama “Crash Landing on You” towards North Korea Lambok Hermanto Sihombing1, Saffira Dellavia2 Correspondence Author: Lambok H. Sihombing [email protected] Universitas President1,2 DOI: 10.35974/acuity.v6i2.2398 Abstract The Korean Wave or well known as Hallyu has become more popular overtime. It is proven when the entertainment industry could reach overseas audience, such as K-Drama called “Crash Landing on You”. This K-Drama received a lot of reaction not only from South Korea, but also from around the world. This K-Drama is perceived as a controversial but entertaining TV series because it is a romance series but the setting is taken in South and North Korea. With limited knowledge about North Korea, this K-Drama dares to give a lot of information about the closed and restricted country. Many people agree with the description, but few people disagree. This essay aims to explain and describe how a K-Drama through “Crash Landing on You” depicts the condition and situation of North Korea. By using the theory of Goffman and Entman, the writers draw some explanation about what kind of framing that is implemented in this drama. The result of this study is how the media, especially in South Korea portrays or describes North Korea as a restricted country. Keywords: Crash Landing on you, K-Drama, Media Framing, North Korea, South Korea. INTRODUCTION South Korea is one of the most developed countries that are well known for their technology, economy, futuristic architecture, and entertainment industry (Kim, 2018).
