In recent decades, Korean communication and media have
substantially grown to become some of the most significant segments
of Korean society. Since the early 1990s, Korea has experienced
several distinctive changes in its politics, economy, and
technology, which are directly related to the development of local
media and culture. Korea has greatly developed several cutting-edge
technologies, such as smartphones, video games, and mobile instant
messengers to become the most networked society throughout the
world. As the Korean Wave exemplifies, the once small and
peripheral Korea has also created several unique local popular
cultures, including television programs, movies, and popular music,
known as K-pop, and these products have penetrated many parts of
the world. As Korean media and popular culture have rapidly grown,
the number of media scholars and topics covering these areas in
academic discourses has increased. These scholars' interests have
expanded from traditional media, such as Korean journalism and
cinema, to several new cutting-edge areas, like digital
technologies, health communication, and LGBT-related issues. In
celebrating the Korean American Communication Association's
fortieth anniversary in 2018, this book documents and historicizes
the growth of growing scholarship in the realm of Korean media and
communication.
