In this case, the enterntainement industry didn't lose a lot of money bc of idols, writers, game developers, directors, etc. It has to do with its country's political and diplomatical decisions and actions. That's one of the ways a gov't can undermine its pop culture's success.
Exit ticket 22.06.07
For today's #exitticket, we have to talk about ways that #popculture’s success can be undermined by the #government. In this case, I'm going to speak more specifically about how the Korean gov't might undermine Korea's pop culture.
If Anti-Blackness and cultural appropriation in Kpop (and Korea in general) is a subject that interests you, please check #AmosFarooqi out and, as I said before, keep an eye out for his research (he also mentionned articles that will come out, I think!)
#AmosFarooqi said that his presentation is actually only an idea he's been sitting on for 2 months, so the super detailed presentation he did was actually only the beginning of his research! Be on the lookout for his whole research that will come out eventually 👀
