This talk takes an expansive view of K-pop as an abbreviation of Korea’s century-long musical tradition – from early twe ntieth-century folk songs\, Japanese colonial-era jazz\, 1960s’ rock and so ul from the U.S. military bases in South Korea\, to the emergence of home-g rown musicians who would become the masterminds of K-popentertainment compa ny juggernauts. It is a tradition full of shapeshifting crossovers\, ingeni ous hybridities\, and intercultural collaborations\, all of which have serv ed as key ingredients to K-pop’s meteoric rise.\n\n \n\nCIS is sponsoring t his event in collaboration with the Korean Culture Club student organizatio n.\n\n \n\nThe CIS Thursday Forum is a weekly series focusing on internatio nal research\, scholarship and creative activity for the OHIO community.
