  • The Next Growth Strategy for Hallyu 79
    Lee & Kim / The Next Growth Strategy for Hallyu 79 THE NEXT GROWTH STRATEGY FOR HALLYU A Comparative Analysis of Global Entertainment Firms Yeon W. Lee Seoul School of Integrated Science and Technology [email protected] Kyuchan Kim Korea Culture and Tourism Institute [email protected] Abstract Previous policy approaches on Hallyu have been focused on the role of government engagement, particularly in fostering diversity and equal business opportunities for small-and-medium enterprises (SMEs). However, a more strategic approach to the cultural industries should be implemented by carefully examining the role of the private sector, particularly the role of large enterprises (LEs). his is important because LEs have an overarching and fundamentally diferentiated role in increasing the size of industry through their expansive value-creating activities and diversiied business areas. his study focuses on the complementary roles of SMEs and LEs in facilitating the growth of Hallyu by bringing in the perspective of value chain diversiication and the modiied value chain framework for the ilm industry. By conducting a comparative analysis of the global entertainment irms in the US, China, and Japan, this study reveals how LEs in the global market enter and explore new industries within culture and continue to enhance their competitiveness. By forming a business ecosystem through linking their value-creating activities as the platform of network, this study looks into the synergistic role among enterprises of diferent size and scale and suggests that Korea’s policy for Hallyu should reorient toward a new growth strategy that encourages the integrative network of irms where the value activities of LEs serve as the platform for convergence.

  • 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.

  • J Contentree (036420 KQ ) Investments to Take Off in 2019
    J Contentree (036420 KQ ) Investments to take off in 2019 Media 3Q18 preview: Revising down estimates For 3Q18, we forecast J Contentree to post revenue of W149bn (+28.7% YoY; all growth figures hereafter are YoY) and operating profit of W19.7bn (+85.0%). By business Earnings Preview segment, we expect operating profit of W13.4bn for multiplex and W6.4bn for October 8, 2018 broadcasting. We see operating profit coming in below our previous estimate and the consensus (W23.5bn), affected by: 1) disappointing theater attendance during the Chuseok holidays; and 2) some deferred overseas drama licensing sales. Multiplex (Megabox): We look for revenue of W100.9bn (+19.4%) and operating profit of W13.4bn (+16.0%). The overall market grew 11.5% in the quarter, thanks to higher (Maintain) Buy ticket prices (+6.7%) and Chuseok-related theater attendance growth (+4.5 %). For Megabox, we estimate theater attendance at directly-operated sites expanded 16.6% Target Price (12M, W) on YoY market share gains (+1.1%p). The three films recently distributed by Megabox 8,400 should contribute W1.3bn to profits. While the movie On Your Wedding Day performed well in the box office, we believe the company saw small losses on Fengshui (released Share Price (10/05/18, W) 5,900 right before the Chuseok holiday) and Sunset in My Hometown (released in July). Broadcasting (JTBC Content Hub + parent): We look for revenue of W62bn (+66.7%) and Expected Return 42% operating profit of W6.4bn (+184.0%). We believe top line continued to grow, supported by the addition of Monday/Tuesday drama slots and higher production budgets.
