SNSD and the Art of Bridging The
Situations Vol. 3 (Winter 2009) © 2009 by Yonsei University Mariah Junglan Min1 [email protected] The Art of Crossing the Line Although the intensive coverage provided to the new all-boy and all-girl bands through the Internet and in more traditional media such as television may make it seem as though such they have long dominated popular music, the current explosion in popularity of idol groups begun only two years ago. What is more, this is not the first time that such groups have stormed the K-pop charts. The first wave of massively popular idol groups was in the late 90s, when a veritable army of teens made their debut as singers. Korean multi-entertainment companies recognized the business potential in well-trained young and attractive stars, and the feverish reception from the public confirmed this. The result was that H.O.T., Sechs Kies, Shinhwa, Fin.K.L., S.E.S., and G.O.D. enjoyed chart success and outstanding album sales. Around 2002, this first golden age of idol groups came to an end. Most of the first wave of idols split up, while some individual members went on to pursue solo careers. Although some groups did continue, with Shinhwa performing as recently as 2008, the moment of the idol group seemed to have passed. For a short time, the K-pop scene was now host to a series of successful solo artists, such as Rain and Yi Hyo-ri, the latter a former member of the all-girl band Fin.K.L. In 2004, the first forerunners of the second wave began to appear, with TVXQ, for example, releasing their first single that year. -
Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: an Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave
International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 1810–1835 1932–8036/20210005 Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: An Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada By employing cultural production approaches in conjunction with the global cultural economy, this article attempts to determine the primary characteristics of the rapid growth of local cultural industries and the global penetration of Korean cultural content. It documents major creators and their products that are received in many countries to identify who they are and what the major cultural products are. It also investigates power relations between cultural creators and the surrounding sociocultural and political milieu, discussing how cultural creators develop local popular culture toward the global cultural markets. I found that cultural creators emphasize the importance of cultural identity to appeal to global audiences as well as local audiences instead of emphasizing solely hybridization. Keywords: cultural production, Hallyu, cultural creators, transnational culture Since the early 2010s, the Korean Wave (Hallyu in Korean) has become globally popular, and media scholars (Han, 2017; T. J. Yoon & Kang, 2017) have paid attention to the recent growth of Hallyu in many parts of the world. Although the influence of Western culture has continued in the Korean cultural market as well as elsewhere, local cultural industries have expanded the exportation of their popular culture to several regions in both the Global South and the Global North. Social media have especially played a major role in disseminating Korean culture (Huang, 2017; Jin & Yoon, 2016), and Korean popular culture is arguably reaching almost every corner of the world. -
Investing in Music How Music Companies Discover, Nurture and Promote Talent
Investing in MusiC How music companies discover, nurture and promote talent Investing In Music 2012 contents 1 Introduction by Plácido Domingo 2 Commentary by Frances Moore and Alison Wenham 3 Section One: The Cycle of Investment 4 Section Two: Dicovering and Signing Talent 16 Section Three: Nurturing Talent 18 Section 4: Promoting Talent 3 2012 Investing In Music introduction by Plácido Domingo, Chairman of IFPI Other collaborations are also possible, for example between the artist and a management company. But all these efforts to promote music depend on the protection of the copyrights and intellectual property of the musicians and the producers of the music. Without such protection, investment will not be forthcoming. Collaboration and investment are defining qualities of the music industry and play a vital role in helping artists pursue their career. Of course, the digital era has brought dramatic changes, but I do not believe it has made the investors in music any less important. Even in the age of the internet, where self-publishing is so much easier for artists than in the past, technology alone I am fortunate to have had a career of more than 50 years in cannot ensure an artist’s work is heard and appreciated. music. I have worked with people of exceptional artistic talent That is why artists continue to work in partnership with record and I continue to work today to try and help young musicians companies, management and others to develop their careers fulfil their ambitions and creative potential as opera singers. and bring their music to the widest possible audience. -
YG Entertainment Buy (122870 KQ ) (Maintain)
[Korea] Entertainment May 13, 2021 YG Entertainment Buy (122870 KQ ) (Maintain) Increasing content leverage TP: W56,000 Upside: 25.8% Mirae Asset Securities Co., Ltd. Jeong -yeob Park [email protected] 1Q21 review : Big earnings beat Consolidated revenue of W97bn (+83.9% YoY), OP of W9.5bn (turn to profit YoY) In 1Q21, YG Entertainment proved its enhanced fundamentals by overcoming the absence of offline performances/activities with the release of new content (Rosé and Treasure). Revenue from albums/digital content/goods was up 170.6% YoY, driven by strong sales of albums (980,000 copies; helped by new releases) and goods. Digital content revenue surged 125.6% YoY, boosted by BLACKPINK’s online concert (280,000 paid views and net revenue of around W8bn). Revenue from Google came in strong at W4.5bn (excluding BLACKPINK concert; vs. W2.5bn in 1Q20) on the back of new releases and subscriber growth. Despite constraints on artist activities, management revenue expanded 44.7% YoY, fueled by luxury advertisers’ (Dior, Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co.) strong preference for YG artists. Elsewhere, the company recorded W15.6bn from TV production (YG Studioplex’s Mr. Queen ) and a valuation gain of roughly W5bn related to Tencent Music Entertainment. Expectations on 2H21 artist Artist activities to gather steam; IP monetization to strengthen on Weverse incl usion activities and Weverse 1) Earnings: During the 2018-20 absence of its main artist group, YG Entertainment built a robust lineup that includes BLACKPINK, Treasure, and iKON.

GLOBAL AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION IN THE PRUDUCTION AND CONSUMPTION OF GANGNAM STYLE by SOOKEUNG JUNG Under the Direction of Professor Hongmei Li ABSTRACT This thesis examines the cultural consumption of the Korean music video Gangnam Style in the broader context of the increasing popularity of Korean popular content, often called the Korean Wave, and of complex conditions of transnational consumption. Specifically, it in- vestigates why the music video Gangnam Style gained popularity not only in East Asia but also over the world, how it is circulated, and what conditions contribute to its success. It focuses on the role of the networked audiences and the interactions between the networked audiences and mainstream media through a chronological analysis on the distribution and reproduction process of Gangnam Style on YouTube. Through the case study of Gangman Style, this thesis attempts to rethink the established globalization theories and to suggest new perspective of cultural circula- tion in the globalized and digitalized media environment. -
