This music genre first appeared in Korea in the 1990s, but its emergence was not sudden; rather, its roots are deeply embedded in decades of Korean pop music history. This book aims to introduce an international audience interested in Korean music to how the modern form of Korean pop music originated and developed. Understanding the history of Korean pop music, which has changed and evolved along with social changes, means understanding how Korean society has transformed.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis book is primarily divided into two sections. The first deals with the developments in Korean pop music from Japanese rule until the early 1990s. Examining this period, which can be considered the prehistory of K-Pop, provides an opportunity to understand the historical context of K-Pop. The second part describes the emergence of K-Pop in the 1990s and its developmental stages up to its current form as a globalized cultural element. The focus of the second part is on representative K-Pop idol groups, the social circumstances that gave rise to K-Pop, and its production system.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTo truly understand the global enthusiasm for K-Pop, one needs a multifaceted perspective that also includes historical context and structural conditions. In this sense, this book is great for anyone who wants to learn more about K-Pop and Korean pop culture, as well as more about Korean society.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aegyo K-Pop Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57202491228543,"sku":"2558","price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/8304\/3711\/files\/5089868050.jpg?v=1774362296","url":"https:\/\/aegyo-kpopstore.de\/en\/products\/k-pop-rootsandblossomingkimchangnam","provider":"Aegyo K-Pop Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
