Klappentext zu „K-Pop “
This book explores the emergence of K-pop and its evolution to a global phenomenon. The Korean Wave ('Hallyu') expands its scope beyond K-pop music and K-dramas to include food, fashion, and beauty products. The book draws a parallel between Hollywood's reliance on cinema and K-pop's inextricable link with social media, emphasizing how these platforms have transformed traditional notions of stardom and fandom. Glamorous stars and screaming fans have been replaced by smart, well-connected actors. However, the book also acknowledges the critical voices emerging within this enthusiasm, scrutinizing the underlying industry and the role models it projects. This examination leads to an analysis of the increasingly controversial intercultural discourse that K-pop and its associated phenomena generate. The book contextualizes K-pop within a broader cultural, aesthetic, and socio-political landscape.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
