  • Conceptually Androgynous
    Umeå Center for Gender Studies Conceptually androgynous The production and commodification of gender in Korean pop music Petter Almqvist-Ingersoll Master Thesis in Gender Studies Spring 2019 Thesis supervisor: Johanna Overud, Ph. D. ABSTRACT Stemming from a recent surge in articles related to Korean masculinities, and based in a feminist and queer Marxist theoretical framework, this paper asks how gender, with a specific focus on what is referred to as soft masculinity, is constructed through K-pop performances, as well as what power structures are in play. By reading studies on pan-Asian masculinities and gender performativity - taking into account such factors as talnori and kkonminam, and investigating conceptual terms flower boy, aegyo, and girl crush - it forms a baseline for a qualitative research project. By conducting qualitative interviews with Swedish K-pop fans and performing semiotic analysis of K-pop music videos, the thesis finds that although K-pop masculinities are perceived as feminine to a foreign audience, they are still heavily rooted in a heteronormative framework. Furthermore, in investigating the production of gender performativity in K-pop, it finds that neoliberal commercialism holds an assertive grip over these productions and are thus able to dictate ‘conceptualizations’ of gender and project identities that are specifically tailored to attract certain audiences. Lastly, the study shows that these practices are sold under an umbrella of ‘loyalty’ in which fans are incentivized to consume in order to show support for their idols – in which the concept of desire plays a significant role.

  • 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.

  • Weekly News Digest #15
    Apr 12 — Apr 18, 2021 Weekly News Digest #15 Epic Games raised $1B in a private placement at $28.7B valuation Epic Games has announced the completion of a $1B funding round, including a $200m strategic investment from Sony. The current equity valuation of the company is $28.7B, which represents a substantial (+65%) increase over Epic's previous funding round in August 2020 (raising $1.78B at $17.3B valuation). According to Tim Sweeney, the investment will allow the company to accelerate its work on building the unique metaverse around Fortnite, Rocket League, and Fall Guys, while also providing game developers with the infrastructure, including Unreal Engine, Epic Online Services, and the Epic Games Store. Taking into account the recently announced 3 acquisitions (RAD Game Tools, Mediatonic, Capturing Reality) since the beginning of 2021, Epic Games will most probably use the proceeds to continue its add­ on acquisitions spree. Krafton applies for IPO South Korean video game holding Krafton has filed for preliminary approval to undertake an IPO on Korea Exchange (KRX), according to Reuters. Reuters also refers to Seoul­based analysts, who expect the IPO to become one of the year's biggest deals, estimating Krafton at ~$18B valuation, which is substantially less than the $27.2B reported by Eugene Investment & Securities in January. The largest shareholders are Chang Byung­gyu (the founder of Krafton) with a 16.4% stake as of 2020, followed by Tencent’s 15.5%. Update: AppLovin makes $2B IPO, with share prices falling 18.5% after the first day of trading California­based mobile gaming, tech, and analytics company AppLovin (NASDAQ: APP) has secured approximately $2B during an IPO with 90% primary and 10% secondary shares.
