K-Pop is hugely promoted offline/online in East Asia, while efforts to promote it elsewhere are kept to a minimum. Whilst addressing the role of digital marketing in the promotion of K-Pop in the Brazilian music industry this study aims to demonstrate that K-pop will provide its audience with a unique and engaging experience if it thinks globally and acts locally in its marketing and communication strategies. A survey of K-Pop's world fan base was carried out online with 1,074 fans to determine the validity of the hypothesis. The results have demonstrated the need to adapt global and intercultural strategies to local markets with increasing brand awareness through utilizing digital marketing. For example, to increase K-Pop's popularity and market share in Brazil, it is not required to sing in Brazilian Portuguese, contrary to what might be perceived but fully singing in English would help breaking into the market dominated by domestic music as songs would have a higher probability to be included in the international soundtrack of a Brazilian telenovela and promote the K-Pop artist not only across Brazil but also give the artist exposure in all the markets the Brazilian telenovela is exported to, opening an entry door to those markets. K-Pop audience segmentation and psychographic profiling is crucial to the understanding of each market's consumer's preferences, likes, dislikes and their buying habits as it was proven through Brazil's digital media, social media, digital music market and K-Pop market analysis within the global context of the study. It should be also considered that brand extensions are not standard everywhere and that there are cultures where different product categories are not directly associated with its main corporate owner which requires extensive local market knowledge to succeed. The primary and secondary data research that we conducted for this study intended to demonstrate that K-Pop can be successful in Brazil and in Latin America and increase their local and regional market share if digital marketing and communication strategies are tailored to each individual market.

본 연구는 'K-POP' 선호도가 한국 상품의 구매의도에 미치는 효과를 고찰하고 있으며, 특히 이들 관계를 매개하는 한국문화이벤트 참여의도와 한국문화제품 구매의도의 매개효과를 고찰하였다. 그리고 나아가 이들 경로관계에서 한류 콘텐츠 이용행태별 차이에 따라 경로효과가 차이가 있는지를 확인하였다. 분석결과, 'K-POP' 선호도는 한국문화이벤트 참여의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 일반제품 구매의도에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 한국문화이벤트 참여는 한국문화제품 구매의도와 일반제품 구매의도에 모두 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 한국문화제품 구매의도는 일반제품 구매의도에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 본 연구자들은 본 연구결과를 통해 'K-POP' 선호도가 높아진다고 해서 일반제품 구매의도가 높아지는 것이 아니라, 'K-POP' 선호도가 높아지게 되면 이로 인하여 한국문화이벤트 참여의도가 높아지고, 그 결과 일반제품 구매의도가 높아진다는 새로운 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 한류 콘텐츠 이용행태(정보이용빈도, 정보원천, 관심분야)별 차이를 분석하였다. 분석 결과에 따르면, 매체이용 행태별 차이의 경우 인터넷을 사용하는 중국소비자들은 'K-POP' 선호도가 일반제품 구매의도에도 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤으며, 한국문화제품에 대한 구매의도도 일반제품 구매의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 정보원천이 TV, 라디오, 신문 등을 주로 이용하는 중국소비자들의 경우에는, 'K-POP' 선호도가 일반제품 구매의도에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

신(新)한류의 재조명으로 K-Pop음악 산업의 흥행은 지속되는 한편, 대부분이 아이돌 댄스 음악이라는 획일적인 장르적 한계를 이유로 한류 지속가능성 여부에 대한 논란은 계속되고 있다. 연구자들은 실용음악교육의 체제의 변화를 통해 음악적 질의 향상을 이룩해야한다고 하였다. 하지만, 실제로 실용음악 교육이 K-Pop음악 산업의 지속적 성공에 조력할 수 있는지, 서로 영향을 미치고 있는지에 대한 연구가 미비하였다. 그리하여 본 논문에서는 K-Pop과 실용음악의 의미와 연관성을 파악하고, 두 영역의 상호보완적 역할 수행을 위한 방안은 무엇이 있는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 먼저 2013년부터 3년간 국내공인가요차트인 가온차트에서 디지털종합순위의 100위내에 진입했던 곡에 관여한 인물들 즉, 가수, 작 편곡가, 작사가 및 연주자들을 K-Pop인재로 간주하여 조사하고, 그들 중 얼마만큼 실용음악 전공과 관련 있는지 파악한 결과, 41.74%로 확인되었다. 한국 대중음악이라는 큰 공통적 분모 아래에서 지속적인 한류를 위해 서로 협업할 수 있는 방안으로서는 다양한 K-Pop음악에 대한 소비자의 지속적인 니즈 증대와 이를 위한 국내외 사회적 분위기 형성, K-Pop산업이 요구하는 인재양성을 위한 교육제도의 변화 등이 있다.

This thesis examines contemporary Chinese painting after the Cultural Revolution(1966~76), focusing upon so-called "Chinese Pop art", which I termed as "Socialist Pop art". I considered the art of this period within the broader context of social changes especially after the Tienanmen incident of 1989. After the Cultural Revolution during which idolization of Chairman Mao was at its peak, one of the major changes in communist China was that an anti-Mao wave was generated in almost every social class. For example, novels that revealed the hardships during the Cultural Revolution were published. Posters that openly criticized the Maoism were also produced and displayed on the walls, and demand for democracy spurred widespread activist movements among young generations. These broad social changes were also reflected in art. A variety of art movements were introduced from the West to China, and after a period of experimentation with the new imported styles, artists began to apply the new artistic idiom to their works in order to visualize their own social and political realities they lived in. It was a shift from earlier Socialist Realism to a new expression either directly or indirectly, "Socialist Pop", an amalgam of Socialist Realism and Pop art tradition. After the 1989 crackdown of Tienanmen Square protest, when communist government quelled with brutal measures the students, workers, and ordinary people who rose for democracy, greater urge to protest the Deng Xiaoping regime emerged. This time coincided with the gradual emergence of art using Pop art vocabulary to satirize the social reality, the Socialist Pop art, along with many other art forms all with avant-garde spirit. One of the most frequent subjects of Chinese Pop art was visual images of Chairman Mao and his Cultural Revolution, and new China that was saturated with capitalism, which tainted the Chinese way of life with a Western way of consumerism and commercialism. The reason for the popularity of Mao's image was spurred by the "Mao Craze" in the early 1990's. People suddenly began to fall in a kind of nostalgia for the past, and once again, Mao Zedong was idolized as an entity who can heal the problems of modern China who had been marching towards their ultimate destination, the economic development. But this time Chairman Mao was no more an idol but just a popular, commercial product. He is no more an object of worship of almost religious nature but he has become an iconography symbolizing the complex nature of present Chinese society. During this process of depicting the social reality, Chinese artists are making the authority and sanctity of Maoism ineffective. Dealing with this new trend of contemporary Chinese art in view of "Socialist Pop art" two manners of re-creating Pop art can be illustrated: one that incorporates the propaganda posters of the Cultural Revolution; the other borrows from Chinese traditional popular imagery or mass media, such as photos taken during Mao era. What is worth mentioning is that these posters and photos of the Cultural Revolution can be identified as 'popular' media, as they were directed to educate the popular mass, thus combination of this ingenuous pop media with Western Pop art can be fully justified as a genre unique to China. Through this genre, we can discover a new chapter of the Chinese contemporary painting and its society, as their Pop art can be considered as self-portraits true to their present appearances.

First, his work appeared as application of the mass culture image such as symbolic thing in the modern consumer society, object in an ordinary life, character of well-known animation, national flag and famous star. Second, such appropriated pop art techniques showed as pop color in strong primary color and silk screen, photomontage, collage, assemblage, graffiti, and lettering. Third, a variety of images featured earlier in art works were shown in parody. These works are valuable in that they are expressed aesthetically through regeneration of popular culture's various images in view of fashion, they are described in the non-traditional value with frolic resistance and deviation out of existing fashion norm, and they are given the dynamic creativity integrated with art and fashion.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the acceptance and interpretation of pop musician's image in the Korean youth subculture, Fan Costume play(Fancos). Fancos subculture took the most active attitude to accepts of the pop musician's image and therefore was assumed to have various and differential acceptance aspects. The ethnographic method was used in order to approach more closely from their point of view. The cultural activity of Fancos subculture was imitation and reappearance of pop musician's appearance. Actually Fancos is a kind of fan-culture which idolized Korean pop music star. The acceptance of musician's appearance in Fancos is found out in two aspects. One is passive acceptance aspects that inforces conformity of star fashion and follows servilely ideal body image which promoted by cultural industry. The other is unique acceptance aspects that Fancos members interpret the musician's image in their own way. Those members experience pleasure through their own meaning. And homology of their appearance makes a distinction between of themselves from other youth and intensifies their group identity. As above analyzed, Fancos subculture has differential acceptance of pop music star's image comparing to other youth and even their stylistic appearance reflects not only their fandom but also their own meaning. Consequently, pop musician's image as a popular cultural text is accepted not equal to all populace but dissimilar along with contexts and trails of the acceptance group.

This study aims to expose the potential dangers of K-pop through the past and present of K-pop choreography copyrights and to suggest the need to secure digital choreography copyrights for the sustainability of K-pop considering national responsibility. As the content industry quickly sought countermeasures to digital transformation, such as the launch of K-pop platforms and the evolution of OMO (Online Merges with Offline) media commerce in response to changes in the industrial environment due to COVID-19, the annual export of the domestic content industry increased by 6.3% compared to the previous year. Accordingly, our copyright does not require that works be fixed in tangibles, as in Japan and Germany, on the basis of entrusting each country's legislation to determine whether to require fixation on choreographed works. On the other hand, the United States, France and the United Kingdom are demanding that it be fixed. Although choreography is at the center of K-pop and the value and influence of K-pop videos including cover dance through new media are discussed from various perspectives, copyright on choreography that needs to be resolved in business platforms for K-pop scalability The fact that there is such a big difference in problem perception is an area where we must not lose our vigilance. As the development of today's technology, the method of fixing a choreography looks very easy as an image, but at the same time can be stolen very quickly. Therefore, compared to overseas cases, it is urgent to improve the difference in perception of copyright registration for K-pop choreography and to supplement the system include the NFT.
