This book presents essays exploring the ways in which popular
culture reflects and engenders ongoing changes in Japan-Korea
relations. Through a broad temporal coverage from the colonial
period to the contemporary, the book's chapters analyse the often
contradictory roles that popular culture has played in either
promoting or impeding nationalisms, regional conflict and
reconciliations between Japan and Korea. Its contributors link
several key areas of interest in East Asian Studies, including
conflicts over historical memories and cultural production,
grassroots challenges to state ideology, and the consequences of
digital technology in Japan and South Korea. Taking recent
discourse on Japan and South Korea as popular cultural superpowers
further, this book expands its focus from mainstream entertainment
media to the lived experience of daily life, in which sentiments
and perceptions of the "popular" are formed. It will be useful to
students and scholars of Japanese and Korean studies, as well as
film studies, media studies and cultural studies more widely.
