This research aims to analyze the prep-hop fashion, which is an original look created through the convergence of the hip-hop and preppy look, and identify the design characteristics of the prep-hop fashion. The style mixes the fashion of what was traditionally a lower-class look with the upper class. The design characteristics are as follows: First, the prep-hop fashion expresses slim, casual and sophisticated look with items and silhouettes. The items are categorized into jackets, shirts and pants. The prep-hop jackets provides a casual look to its wearer unlike the jackets of preppy or conservative looks. Slim suits show different meanings and features depending on the changes in the time and culture despite the continued use of the items. Second, the colors of the prep-hop fashion include overall basic colors used in the preppy look and hip-hop fashion. The aesthetic values of the colors express pleasant color images different from the conservative and resistant images expressed in the preppy and hip-hop style before the convergence, respectively. Third, the materials and patterns are expressed in a unique way to fulfill the emotional needs that are considered vital to contemporary fashion. The materials in the prep-hop fashion extend the ranges of usage by using the materials with unexpectedness broken out of general range of usage. While the use of the patterns is one of the methods to demonstrate that the prep-hop fashion is created by the convergence between hip-hop fashion and preppy look, the meaning concludes pleasantness and casualness different from the past. Fourth, the prep-hop fashion is mainly composed of hip-hop fashion accessories, which express the authenticity of the hip-hop fashion to protect the non-mainstream characteristics. The design characteristics of the prep-hop fashion pursue the individuality of the contemporary fashion, which lacks originality due to commercialization. The development of the prep-hop fashion, as a new form that combined contrasting genres and trends, is expected to develop more publicly.

일반적으로 사람들은 자신들이 갖는 국적에 따라 분류되지만, 각 개인의 문화적 경향은 반드시 자신들이 속한 국적에 의해 결정되지 않는다. 오히려 하나의 문화적 배경을 가진 사람이라 하더라도 자신이 속한 하위문화에 따라 자신의 정체성과 다양성이 형성된다. 본 연구는 힙합 장르 노래에 대한 분석을 통해 미국, 독일, 한국의 하위문화적 속성을 밝혔다. 이를 위해 음원 판매액과 힙합의 역사에 관한 기존 연구를 토대로 각 국가에서 힙합이라는 장르가 출현한 시점 및 2016년의 가장 인기 있었던 노래를 각각 한 곡씩 총 여섯곡을 선정해 기호학적으로 분석했다. 국가별 힙합의 초기 및 현재 모습에 대한 비교 분석결과, 흥미롭게도 힙합은 대상에 대한 묘사에 있어 점점 유사해져 가는 동시에, 더욱 개인주의적 경향을 띠고 있음을 공통적으로 지니고 있다. 그러나 세부적인 측면에서 각 국가 간 차이가 발견되었다. 미국 힙합에서는 대표적으로 아메리칸 드림(American Dream)에 대한 열망이 드러났으며, 독일의 힙합에서는 과도한 남성성 이미지가 강조되었다. 한편, 한국 힙합은 보다 일상적인 생각과 이야기를 중심으로 전개되는 양상을 띠었다. 나아가 비록 사회 비판의 도구로서 힙합이 갖는 중요도가 점차 감소하고는 있지만, 여전히 힙합은 강력한 문화적 반항이자 새로운 도전의 상징으로 인식되고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to delve into the identity of the swag style which has diversified into various forms by exploring the phenomenon, formative characteristics and the internal values of the swag style in modern fashioin. This study discusses the concept and the socio-cultural meanings of swag from the perspective of Jean Baudrillard's hyper-reality, and a form of existence. The classifies the swag fashion styles into parody, hip hop and collage-type mix-and-match. Expressive characteristics of the swag look in modern fashion are as follows. First, the swag look utilizes the parody technique. In the mid-2000s, the look parodied brand logos as a form of self-mocking and active self-derision toward cheap imitations. Second, the swag look borrows from the expressive factors of the hip-hop style. Born as a sub-culture based on music, hip-hop has become a way of life, as its nature became multi-cultural and trans-cultural while its fashion style gained popularity globally after the 1980s. Third, the swag look barrows from the pop-type collage form as it mixes-and-matches costume items based on the expressive characteristics of hip hop, and this can be seen through items being used in new, non-formative and free styles. Comic aesthetics is revealed in parodied expression, hip-hop factors and collage-style mix-and-match. Swag as a hyper-reality manifests itself in various natures: humorous nature, negative nature and deconstructive nature through reflection and re-enactment of reality, transmutation and distortion of reality, and absence of reality respectively. However, it does not have a binding nature, which is the norm for subcultures. This characteristic, in combination with it having internal lightness, strong meaning of communication, and a sharing of self-contentment, distinguishes itself from the general meanings of existing parody fashion, hip-hop fashion and collage fashion.

K-Pop은 세계 각지로부터 유입된 다양한 음악적 요소의 창조적 혼합과 절충을 시도함으로써 한류 콘텐츠의 일부에서 한류의 주역으로 확장되었다. K-Pop의 혼종적인 모습은 음악 장르뿐 아니라 K-Pop 노랫말의 언어선택과 발음법에서도 나타난다. K-Pop 음악 속 노랫말 발음의 혼종 현상, 즉, 노랫말의 딕션 퓨전 현상은 해외 진출을 위한 전략적 방안이 아니라 한국 대중음악사적 흐름 속에서 자연스럽게 형성된 것이다. 1992년 서태지와 아이들의 등장으로 대중음악의 흐름이 발라드에서 댄스음악으로 전환·정착되고, 3년 뒤 힙합 댄스음악인 'Come Back Home'의 성공으로 힙합음악의 잠재적 경쟁력을 확인한 재미교포들의 한국 대중음악시장 진출은 현재 K-Pop 노랫말의 이중언어 사용과 한국어 노랫말의 딕션 퓨전 현상의 기원이 됨을 주장한다. 따라서 논자는 90년대 후반, 재미교포 출신 힙합가수들의 노랫말 속 이중언어 발음체계를 파악하기 위해 한국어와 영어의 발음체계를 알아보고, 재미교포들의 서투른 한국어 노랫말 딕션이 지속적으로 허용 되고, 활용될 수 있었던 요인을 한국어 발음체계를 통해 밝히고자 한다. 또한 K-Pop에서 나타나는 한국어 노랫말의 영어식 딕션법을 90년대 후반의 재미교포 출신 힙합가수들의 한국어 노랫말 딕션법과 비교함으로써 이 둘의 연관성을 밝히고자 한다. 이 연구는 K-Pop 한국어 노랫말에서 나타나는 딕션 퓨전 현상의 요인을 한국 대중음악사적 흐름 속에서 밝히고, 90년대 이중언어 사용자의 노랫말 딕션 비교를 통하여 규명하였다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 신한류의 지속화를 위해 K-Pop 노랫말의 딕션에 대한 연구가 여러 분야에 걸쳐 이루어지기를 바란다.
