The growth of multiculturalism, cultural diversity, and cultural globalization has
led many parts of East Asia, especially the South Korean government, to deal
with the issue of cultural identity through cultural policy. For example, the arrival
and influence of American popular culture after World War II confused East
Asians and brought about a crisis of cultural identity. From the South Korean
point of view, it has been argued that Western popular culture tends to be
synonymous with commercialism, materialism, violence, and sensuality, traits
traditionally held to be foreign to Korean culture. Therefore, the Korean
government has tried to develop its cultural policy so as to reconstruct Korean
cultural identity; the purpose has been to protect Korea¿s traditional culture as
well as to lessen the negative impact of the increasing inflow of Western culture.
This course will lead students to a deeper understanding of new
contemporary trends in East Asian popular culture by focusing on how East Asia
has developed its popular culture through official cultural policy, especially in the
face of strong influence from American popular culture. It will focus especially
on the case of Korea, in order to show how the change of official cultural policy
in South Korea has affected the recent phenomenon of Hallyu in East Asia.
