Asian values in popular culture. The course will examine the concept that advanced technology allows overseas East Asians freely to choose any kind of popular culture they want; and instead of being attracted to European, American, or some other local popular culture, they tend to choose Korean popular culture, which speaks more to their Asian values and sentiments. This course focuses on the Asian values and sentiments as well as regional identity by analyzing and discussing consumer activities of East Asians in Austria.
