The started point for Korean Wave

    Now the Korean Wave is spreading around the world even some places that I can't expect it can be like India. One of Korean Wave is dramas which are very attract to viewers around the world.

    Accroding to The DIPLOMAT Blogs, there are many interesting reason why Korean dramas are so popular and dispict South Korea to other country rapidly. The first reason is a common theme of dramas. Korean dramas use middle class as a background of story, so it is easy to draw attention to foreign viewers. For instance, the Korean historical drama, Dae Jang Geum, is the sarted point for Korean dramas addict in many countries. In Iran, Dae Jang Geum used to broadcast in the internet first and then go to on air on TV. The second reason is Korean dramas and cinemas are less violent and sexual. In contrast to Hollywood, Korean dramas are a family thing because everyone in family can watch. In addition, in some culture like Thailand, always have a problem with violent and sexual scenes, Korean dramas may be the best answer for this problem. There are sitll many reason why Korean Wave is becoming so popular and can access to different countries like Bhutan, India, and many in the Middle East Asia.

      I think Korean Wave is the best way to introduce South Korea to the world. Korea will get lots and lots of benefits form this. No wonder why Korean Wave is changing a attitude about South Korea.

New Power of K-pop Girl Group

    Now Girls' Generation, 9-member girl group, is famous across Asia even somewhere in the USA. In Japan, this girl group is going to reach the J-pop music industry that is the largest market in the Asia. If you look carefully for Girls'Generation, it must be more than music. According to The Chosun Ilbo online, Oct 28, 2010, the writer is talking about Girls' Generation as a model of Korean business. Korean buisness should learn from the way many Korean girl groups, especially Girls' Generation, SJ and Kara that was formed and stepped into one of the most successful artists in Asia in a few years. The major reason why Korean Idol groups are successful is a scarcity of resources is very suggestive.  Some compamies are using the girl group to endorsment their products. Sometimes, Girls' Generation is a link which can connect to other kinds of business becuase their fans will support them in everything. Girls' Generation is named to investment reports as a example of the most successful girl group from Sm Entertrainment. I think Korean idol  groups are more than the artists and are representing South Korea to the world
