SUMMARY:K-Pop: How Korea’s Musical Export Stole the Heart of the Global Audience - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:K-Pop is no longer a Korean phenomenon. Blending pop\, R&B\, hip-hop and electronic music with an alchemy that has proven irresistible to audiences everywhere\, the genre is now a bona fide cultural export that has served to cement South Korea’s reputation as a modern\, globalized economy. \nBut how did it sweep the world so quickly\, building a reach and influence that defies geography? \nAnd how has the digital media revolution that enabled K-Pop’s emergence helped it shape recent conversations on global issues like racial equity and industries like cosmetics? \nJoin the Consulate General of Korea in Atlanta and Global Atlanta for an online conversation with experts exploring the origins of K-Pop and the cultural influence that is reverberating even here in Atlanta\, a cultural crossroads that serves as both a capital of hip-hop and the epicenter for the Korean community in the Southeast U.S. \nSpeakers:\nIntroductory remarks: Young-jun Kim\, Consul General of Korea in Atlanta \n\n\n\nConversation with Dr. Suk-Young Kim\, professor at the UCLA School of Theater and author of K-pop Live: Fans\, Idols\, and Multimedia Performance – Full Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCommentary by Dr. Jenny Wang Medina\, Assistant Professor at Emory University’s Department of Russian and East Asian Languages and Cultures\, who specializes in in modern Korean literature and culture and is working on a book manuscript titled K-World: Cultural Capital and the Ethno-Nation in Global South Korea. – Full Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpecial guest: Dhaylin Lee\, leader of the Atlanta K-Pop performance group Lunar Krew\, who will share the roots of her love of K-Pop and her team’s experience competing in the regional competition for the K-Pop world festival in Atlanta.\n\n\n\nModerated by: Trevor Williams\, Managing Editor\, Global Atlanta
