The Evolution of the Hallyu, or Korean Wave


My e-portfolio was about the rise of K-Pop (Korean Pop). Since it began in the early to mid 90s, it has not been popular outside of Korea. However, with the emergence new technologies, K-Pop has been able to reach to audiences at an alarming rate in different areas of the world. It has allowed K-Pop to grow and define many successes of Korean entertainment.

The e-portfolio continues on how the rise of K-Pop is helping student organizations on campus today, like the Korean Student Association. The rise of K-Pop, which is associated with Korean culture, has led many non-Koreans to join the KSA and learn more about Korean culture. This has helped KSA gain more members and utilize K-Pop as a main source for enticing new members.
