  • 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.

  • Hallyu Across the Desert: K-Pop Fandom in Israel and Palestine
    Hallyu across the Desert: K-pop Fandom in Israel and Palestine Nissim Otmazgin, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Irina Lyan, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Abstract This study examines the role that fan communities in Israel and Palestine play in the transcultural dissemination of Korean popular music, or “K-pop.” Based on in-depth interviews with fans, a survey of K-pop online communities, discourse analysis of online discussions, and participation in K-pop gatherings, this article examines the practice of K-pop, its localization and institutionalization, and its influence on the identities of fans. Special attention is given to the role of K-pop fans as cultural mediators who create necessary bridges between the music industry and local consumers and thus play a decisive role in globalizing cultures. Typically, literature on the globalization of popular culture either utilizes a top-down approach, depicting powerful media industries as making people across the world consume their products, or emphasizes a bottom-up resistance to the imposition of foreign cultures and values. This article suggests that popular culture consumption not only changes the lives of a few individuals but that these individuals may themselves play a decisive role in connecting globalized culture with local fandom. Keywords: K-pop, Hallyu, Israel, Palestine, Middle East, fandom Introduction Since around 2010, Korean popular music, or “K-pop,” has reached the Middle East via clusters of dedicated fans interested in Korean popular culture, commonly known as “Hallyu.” Bolstered by the power of social media as a means to access and consume cultural content, Korean movies, TV dramas, and, more recently, K-pop have managed to carve a niche among a growing group of consumers, especially young females.

  • The Korean Wave: Retrospect and Prospect
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 2241–2249 1932–8036/20170005 The Korean Wave: Retrospect and Prospect Introduction DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada TAE-JIN YOON Yonsei University, Korea The Korean Wave (hallyu in Korean) marks a historical point and celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2017. The Korean Wave primarily started with a few well-made television dramas that were popular in East Asia, and the local cultural industries have advanced several cultural forms, including K-pop and digital games, which have gradually penetrated global markets. This Special Section focuses on the origin of the Korean Wave, and the articles emphasize either theoretical challenges in hallyu studies or empirical cases of hallyu in various areas of the world. The primary purpose of this Special Section is to explore the history of the Korean Wave as a catalyst of regional and global change by analyzing the evolution, structure, mechanisms, and strategies employed by the music, television, film, digital games, and animation industries in the global markets and their shifting relationships with the state. As the foundational basis for the articles in this Special Section, our goal in this introduction is to provide several key dimensions of the Korean Wave to help readers understand the nature of the emerging local popular culture and digital technologies as a new trend. Keywords: Korean Wave, transnational popular culture, cultural flows, hallyu, globalization, digital technologies The Korean Wave, symbolizing the rapid growth of Korea’s cultural industries and their exports of cultural products in Asia mainly since 1997, marks a historical point and celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2017.

Labels entering into 360 deals may find themselves liablefor violating the Seven-Year Statute or the Talent Agencies Act (TAA). With 360 agreements becoming more popular, labels should turn to an existing music industry that has dealt with the potentiallegal problems of 360 dealsfor years. The Korean pop industry, commonly called "K-pop, " has taken advantage of a 360-deal-like model for many years, and as a conse- quence, many Korean labels have experienced the potential legal prob- lems that American labels may face. Particularly,the legal problems faced by S.M Entertainment, a talent agency and music label giant in South Korea, as a result of their contract with TVXQ, a popular and hugely successful boy band,reveal exactly the type ofpotential liability faced by American music labels.

    INFINITE SYSTEMS OF NONLINEAR OSCILLATION EQUATIONS RELATED TO THE STRING1 R. W. DICKEY 1. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the exis- tence and uniqueness of solutions to an infinite system of nonlinear oscillation equations of the form (1.1) T'J + / (a0 + axf: tlti Tj=0, j = 1, 2, • • • , °o, where the constants a<>and ax satisfy the conditions a0^0 and ai>0 (the prime in (1.1) indicates differentiation with respect to /). The initial conditions on (1.1) will be taken as (1.2a) r,(0) = ay, (L2b) Tj(0) = 0j. Equations of the type (1.1) are related to the Duffing equation (cf. [l]), and arise in attempting to find Fourier series solutions oo (1.3) W(x, t) = X) Tj(t) sinJTrx/L, 3-1 to the nonlinear partial integro-differential equation (1.4) Wtt-(lIo + Hxf Wi(t,t)2di\wxx = 0, (Ho^O, Hx>0). Equation (1.4) describes the small amplitude vibra- tions of a string in which the dependence of the tension on the defor- mation cannot be neglected (cf. [2], [3]). The equations (1.1) form an infinite Hamiltonian system, and in fact there is no difficulty in showing that any solution of (1.1) satisfies the condition (1-5) ~( ± (r'j)2+ ao±jYj +1 ( Z/r:)2) = 0.
