Hallyu 2.0: The Korean Wave in the Age of Social Media (Perspectives On Contemporary Korea)

Collectively known asÂ Hallyu, Korean music, television programs, films, online games, and comics enjoy global popularity, thanks to new communication technologies. In recent years, Korean popular culture has also become the subject of academic inquiry. Whereas the Hallyuâ€™s impact on Koreaâ€™s national image and domestic economy, as well as on transnational cultural flows, have received much scholarly attention, there has been little discussion of the role of social media in Hallyuâ€™s propagation.

Contributors toÂ Hallyu 2.0: The Korean Wave in the Age of Social MediaÂ explore the ways in which Korean popular cultural products are shared by audiences around the globe; how they generate new fans, markets, and consumers through social media networks; and how scholars can analyze, interpret, and envision the future of this unprecedented cultural phenomenon.
