In this episode, we discuss the new exhibition "Hallyu! The Korean Wave" at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, featuring Yoon-Jee Choi, the assistant curator of the Korean Art Department. Our conversation explores several questions, including where we should draw the line for what counts as "Hallyu" or "K-pop," whether K-pop is inherently linked to capitalism, and who the target audience is for an exhibit like this.
The exhibition features approximately 250 objects—costumes, props, photographs, videos, pop culture ephemera, and contemporary works—providing an immersive and multisensory journey through a fascinating history, and a celebration of a vibrant creative force that bridges cultural, societal, and linguistic divides and continues to reach new heights today.

Surely, at some point in your North American K-pop concert experience, you've experienced the woof. How are we supposed to feel about barking at K-pop concerts, and where does it come from?
On this episode, Tamar Herman, Jason of Popsori, Syed of Genius Korea & Todd discuss the K-pop culture of barking at concerts. The panelists offer some alternatives to making animal noises at K-pop shows and provide other casual reflections stemming from the bark - like the meaning of K-pop itself.

K-Pop Dreaming is a podcast about the rise and history of K-pop in the United States, as told from the point-of-view of the Korean diaspora in Los Angeles. Host Vivian Yoon takes listeners on a journey from K-pop’s origins in Korean trot music and American presence in post-war South Korea to the 1992 LA Uprising and the booming global popularity of K-pop in the present day, all juxtaposed against Yoon’s own coming-of-age as a second generation immigrant in Los Angeles, struggling to fit in and come to terms with her own identity.

Her background is in improvisation and sketch comedy, and she performs weekly at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater on Harold Night. Vivian also has experience in tech, virtual production, and XR.

Last we spoke about K-Drama, we dove into Sky Castle and how it illuminates the harsh pressures on Korean youth to be “successful” and suppress their feelings. The dramas we’re introducing today, Extraordinary Attorney Woo and Flower of Evil, approach this same topic through a criminal justice lens—what happens to people who cannot be high functioning, aka “normal” in society as adults? How does the legal system handle this?

NewJean’s ‘cookie’ raised a lot of eyebrows. It was a song presented by teenage girls-mostly under the age of 16-singing lyrics that were partly interpreted as being sexual in nature amongst English-speaking listeners. It kicked off a debate that isn’t entirely new for k-pop, namely, the prevalence of sexualized minors in k-pop. What's driving this trend? How precedented is this? And what should morally conscious fans do about content of this kind?

The Stray Kids billboard profile story included some bad tropes that were likely born out of lazy journalism, but there’s a troubling precedent set when fans dictate editorial. We hear remarks from Todd Inoue who also published a Stray Kids profile story a few years back. In this episode we discuss this issue, along with other K-pop song recommendations and hallyu things to check out. Genius Korea founder, Syed Saquib, joins and offers his recommendations & insights.

It’s time to be honest: K-Pop concerts in America are not always perfect. While there are a few high production value events, most are charging AAA prices - that sell out - for mediocre shows. Is it fair that fans around the world receive a lower quality experience, when K-Pop labels are bringing in more profits than ever?
We had a full house of experts from various parts of the K-Pop scene weigh in on this topic. Chris from @cctvpops shared from his experience working for a major American music label. Todd Inoue @nattotodd covers K-Pop concerts for the SF Chronicle. And T currently works for a K-pop concert production company in the Bay Area.

What goes into writing a young adult novel which touches on K-pop themes? In this episode we connect with Stephan Lee—YA enthusiast, ardent K-pop fan, and journalist—as we discuss his two novels "K-pop Confidential" and "K-pop Revolution." We touch on some familiar topics - capitalism, exploitation, and draw parallels between America's higher education and the K-pop trainee system.
Be sure to pick up "K-pop Revolution" from your local bookstore or virtually anywhere you get your novels.

Are you tired of the lack of real social commentary in recent K-Pop? In The Kpopcast’s first ever K-Drama review, we discuss the critically acclaimed “SKY Castle,” which was just made available on Netflix. For fans of biting social critique like Parasite and Squid Game, SKY Castle is an exquisitely crafted takedown of the upper class and capitalism. Co-hosts Stephanie and Ghee_Dragon welcome special guest Sam from Southpaw aka @LiberationistMA (Twitter), who points out filming techniques and Korean historical context in the drama that viewers might have missed.

The Grammys. An award presented by the Recording Academy to recognize "Outstanding Achievement in the music industry" of the United States. For K-pop fans who may believe their bias is an immaculate jesus, the award can act as a point for artistic merit or recognition. In a 2021 interview with the Korea Herald, Suga remarked that he hopes the group will win a Grammy before the end of their career. It can be argued that BTS has made music award shows relevant again following an ongoing trend of declining ratings and interest in music awards.
But with the recent misses for awarding BTS a Grammy - what signs does this signal for k-pop fans? What actually matters? How do you think we should interpret last night’s news?
This episode is a recording of a recent #kpopchat we held on Twitter Spaces.

The concept-masters of (G)I-DLE gave a "Tomboy" femme fatale look for their latest single. If this sounds like a mixed metaphor to you, you're not alone. In this episode we take a deep look at the song's concept and lyrics, and what it means in the context of an incoming anti-feminist presidential administration. Subject matter experts—John Lee, the blogger/columnist/Twitter commentariat known as the Korean Foreigner; and Hye Jin Lee, Clinical Assistant Professor of Communication at USC—provide additional color.
We also offer some recommended "hit replays" from the album. We additionally recommend reading a paper by Jieun Lee and Hyangsoon Yi which speaks to the recent configuration of "ssenunni" in hallyu/K-pop.

10 years ago, Big Bang released "Fantastic Baby." Shortly after its release, the song would go on to become not just one of the band's most popular songs, but also one of the most popular and iconic songs of K-pop itself. For its time, the critical reception surprised YG himself and cemented the group's electronic sound for the years to follow. In this episode, we look back at the importance of this song in the broader context of Big Bang's history. Consider this a fun look back as we prepare for the group's anticipated return this quarter!
Correction: a previous version of this episode said that Daesung was driving under the influence. We've updated this episode to note that an autopsy revealed that the motorcycle victim had a blood alcohol level of 0.186.

Is access journalism adding to the echo chamber in kpop discourse? For the sake of this conversation, we chose to define "access journalism" as journalism that prioritizes access—meaning media time with idols—over journalistic objectivity and/or integrity. Given the access to the idol and the controlled nature in how it is often brought about, access journalism is often lauded as just being PR for the company or brand. In other words, a free advertisement that abuses the legitimacy that might come with earned media or media coverage.
In k-pop circles, access journalism has traditionally been met with compromises on virtually all sides. Fans want something new but aren’t welcoming of coverage that critiques or presents a less-ideal image of their idols. Publicity teams want positive coverage (and lots of hits from leading publications), but they want coverage to be on message. And journalists want to maintain objective integrity, say something new, and not sacrifice standing with either PR teams or fans. So, what has that meant in outcomes in coverage? When individuals break from this system, what happens? What should we be asking for or doing as fans to create a more healthy system? We’ve assembled some speakers here to discuss.

From short hair to the Burning Sun scandal, Kpop has a 🤏problem in properly understanding “feminism.” In this #kpopchat conversation held in August, we discussed the current and ongoing backlash against the Feminism movement in South Korea, and how we should consider feminist themes in the industry/genre.

In late 2020, “K-pop fans” were praised as a socially conscious monolithic community who used fancams to flood watchdog apps, hijack racist hashtags, and to buy-out Trump rally tickets. Often k-pop movements were externally seen as moving in the name of BLM, but, if you actually spoke with black k-pop fans, you’d see that not all of these gestures helped black k-pop fans. K-pop fans of color have, in actuality, endured years of anti-blackness from fellow k-pop fans, and we still see it today. From HYBE’s lack of action around its app which allows for racist language, image, and violent messaging, to the ongoing doxxing that we see happening on Twitter on fans of color who simply ask their favorite idols to do better, fandom has unfortunately been a force of harm for communities of color. So, to better understand the issues and explore what we could be doing next, we’ve assembled a panel of speakers.
This episode is a recording of a #kpopchat conversation we held on Twitter Spaces. Every week on Twitter Spaces, we hold #kpopchat discussions on interesting things happening in and around the k-pop community.

When we first heard about the concept of an AI Kpop group, we were both intrigued and ambivalent. On the surface, Aespa looks and sounds like something created out of service to an incel male fantasy - hips and busts sizes that aren’t realistic with human proportions. But on the other hand, it could open the door for a lot of unprecedented creative expression. Aespa, a virtual group created by SM Entertainment, is the first girl group to push a virtual AI concept within Kpop, and it’s created quite a bit of a polarizing response among western Kpop fans. As a western Kpop fan who follows both AI and Kpop, Peter dug deeper to discover how we should feel and respond to this group. Should we embrace this virtual concept, or should we be concerned? We spoke to a few experts to provide some clues.

We welcome BTS super fans Rosan (aka xCeleste) and Jose (aka JoseOchoaTV) for a quick dive into BTS' "Dynamite." Historically, disco music has served as a form of escapism, giving listeners reprieve from society’s hardships. So was this disco-inspired song Daebak or Not?

This episode was recorded way back in August of 2019 which is why the hit replays and X1 references may sound old.

A video shows a side-by-side comparison between 2016 and 2018 performances of Jennie of Blackpink. YG allegedly takes the fan-made video down in a manual copyright request. Netizen response explodes.
In this unedited K-pop Hot Isssue episode we discuss:
- Is it our place to ask whether Jennie is lazy?

After three pre-debut singles (...) KARD delivers on its proper debut with "Hola Hola." For a mixed-gender group attributed with kicking-off the tropical house genre for kpop, does "Hola Hola" mark the beginning of the end of the sub-genre?

PSY's two new songs may very well be a shallow boast on hooking up with hot chicks in his 40s, but we discuss possible subversive themes behind the music.
Post production note: it is more likely that "New Face" was filmed at the Venetian in Macau - not Las Vegas. Peter was tired and confused.

GFriend's "Fingertip" may appear to be a dream-centered story in the music video, but what most people miss is the Greek mythology driving the narrative in this latest hit.
Post-production note: we were wrong about "Navillera" meaning 'butterfly' in Spanish. It sounds like this was more based off of "Navi" sounding like 'butterfly in korean.
