MUSC 372 - K-pop in Global Context

Credit(s): 3

K-POP IN GLOBAL CONTEXT
Component: Lecture
John Lie defined the “K” in K-wave and K-pop as a brand, although not specifically as Korean (2012). K-wave has exercised considerable influence in the contemporary global context. This course aims not only to understand the current K-pop phenomenon but also to provide us with an opportunity to rethink and consider how we can approach it as academic material. The course will combine short lectures (where necessary), discussions, other class activities, and small writing assignments in the form of listening, viewing, and reading journals and research papers.
