The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011
The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 by Sunyoung Yang A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sunyoung Yang Year of 2015 The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 Sunyoung Yang Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2015 Abstract In this dissertation I will shed light on the interwoven process between Internet development and neoliberalization in South Korea, and I will also examine the formation of new subjectivities of Internet users who are also becoming neoliberal subjects. In particular, I examine the culture of the South Korean Internet freak community of DCinside.com and the phenomenon I have dubbed “loser aesthetics.” Throughout the dissertation, I elaborate on the meaning-making process of self-reflexive mockery including the labels “Internet freak” and “surplus (human)” and gender politics based on sexuality focusing on gender ambiguous characters, called Nunhwa, as a means of collective identity-making, and I explore the exploitation of unpaid immaterial labor through a collective project making a review book of a TV drama Painter of the Wind. The youth of South Korea emerge as the backbone of these creative endeavors as they try to find their place in a precarious labor market that has changed so rapidly since the 1990s that only the very best succeed, leaving a large group of disenfranchised and disillusioned youth. I go on to explore the impact of late industrialization and the Asian financial crisis, and the nationalistic desire not be left behind in the age of informatization, but to be ahead of the curve. -
The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological. -
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.

Although founded in Italy, it now gets much of its sales and profits from the United States. And although founded as a part maker for prescription eyeglass frames (optical glasses) it now gets much of its sales and profits from sunglasses. The company can’t really be referred to as either a producer or a retailer. Luxottica is truly vertically integrated. Last year, 59% of the company’s sales came from its own stores. And much of the products sold in its own stores is produced by Luxottica itself. The two constants in Luxottica’s history have been the focus on eyewear and the leadership of Leonardo Del Vecchio. Luxottica gets 59% of its revenue from sales made in its own stores. Del Vecchio moved to Agordo, Italy in by distributing its own frames. -

Q1 2021 TRADING UPDATE Safilo's Q1 2021 Business Grows Compared to 2020 and 2019
Press release Q1 2021 Trading Update Q1 2021 TRADING UPDATE Safilo’s Q1 2021 business grows compared to 2020 and 2019: Net sales: +20.0% vs Q1 2020, +6.0% vs Q1 2019 (at constant exchange rates) Adjusted1 EBITDA: Euro 25.8 million, margin 10.3% (2.6% in Q1 2020, 8.1% in Q1 2019) Strong recovery of own and licensed brands, with the new brands in the portfolio effectively compensating the licenses terminated at the end of 2020 Strong growth of the online business, at 13% of the Group’s net sales Significant improvement in profitability driven by sales rebound and now leaner overheads and cost structure Padua, May 11, 2021 – The Board of Directors of Safilo Group S.p.A. has today reviewed and approved Q1 2021 economic and financial key performance indicators. Safilo’s Q1 2021 net sales reached Euro 251.4 million, up 20.0% at constant exchange rates compared to Q1 2020, the first to be hit by the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. More meaningfully, Q1 2021 net sales also grew compared to the same quarter of 2019, up 6.0% at constant exchange rates, thanks to the strong performance of the Group’s own brands and core licenses, and to the significant contribution of the new brands in the portfolio effectively compensating the licenses terminated at the end of last year. The positive sales performance of the period was again largely driven by the United States and by a better than expected contribution from the newly acquired ecommerce business, which, coupled with the growth of Smith’s direct-to-consumer (D2C) channel, boosted Safilo’s total online business to 13% of its net sales from 5.9% in Q1 2020.
