S3 | 5. 'The K-POP Conversation'

from Sync The Beat Podcast Hosted by syncthebeatpod

In this episode, we dive deep into the impact of K-pop on Western media — from its global takeover to the complexities that come with its rise. We unpack the cultural appropriation of Black and rap culture within the industry, and discuss the prejudice and double standards often faced by both Black artists and K-pop idols. We spotlight the explosive solo careers of BLACKPINK members and the hit film emergence of K-Pop Demon Hunters. We also reflect on our first discovery of K-pop and how it sparked both fascination and critical reflection. Follow us on the socials!
