This book offers an in-depth study of the globalization of
contemporary South Korean idol pop music, or K-Pop, visiting K-Pop
and its multiple intersections with political, economic, and
cultural formations and transformations. It provides detailed
insights into the transformative process in and around the field of
Korean pop music since the 1990s, which paved the way for the
recent international rise of K-Pop and the Korean Wave. Fuhr
examines the conditions and effects of transnational flows,
asymmetrical power relations, and the role of the imaginary "other"
in K-Pop production and consumption, relating them to the specific
aesthetic dimensions and material conditions of K-Pop stars, songs,
and videos. Further, the book reveals how K-Pop is deployed for
strategies of national identity construction in connection with
Korean cultural politics, with transnational music production
circuits, and with the transnational mobility of immigrant pop
idols. The volume argues that K-Pop is a highly productive cultural
arena in which South Korea's globalizing and nationalizing forces
and imaginations coincide, intermingle, and counteract with each
other and in which the tension between both of these poles is
played out musically, visually, and discursively. This book
examines a vibrant example of contemporary popular music from the
non-Anglophone world and provides deeper insight into the structure
of popular music and the dynamics of cultural globalization through
a combined set of ethnographic, musicological, and cultural
analysis. Widening the regional scope of Western-dominated popular
music studies and enhancing new areas of ethnomusicology,
anthropology, and cultural studies, this book will also be of
interest to those studying East Asian popular culture, music
globalization, and popular music.

Before museums, wealthy collectors displayed eclectic assortments
of artworks and natural objects in "Wunderkammer," or cabinets of
curiosities. Daniel Spoerri's "Historia Rerum Rariorum" is inspired
by this precedent, and unites works from the past two decades with
recent pieces.
