The "Dark Side of Kpop" Clichés
Manage episode 345546245 series 1318738
As part of our spoooookkkyy hallyuweeen series we discuss why we see so much western media coverage on the "dark side of k-pop," which rely on clichéd tropes. We welcome K-pop journalists Crystal Bell and Todd Inoue for this discussion to weigh in on what they're seeing from the newsroom perspective.
