An interesting article

Sometimes we feel like setting ourselves on fire when we try to write essays like,


But it helps if you are trying to write about something wonderful and something that you feel passionately for. Like KPOP!!!

I know because I have tried to squeeze in stuff like the Korean/Hallyu wave and the use of it as soft power to gain dominance in the world (kpop fuels a large economy). Or how technology has evolved leading to spread of cultures(korean culture) so fast. Or using KPOP to show emergence of youth cultures which turn into mainstream cultures. The best part is of course using group bands in exam essays like a boss! Eg, We can see how TVXQ has managed to break into many global markets and they even have the largest fanclub in the world! or SM Entertainment, a korean talent agency managed to have sold out concerts at Madison Square at NYC, an incredible feat for them considering they have not officially debuted in the US.

Well here is an article by Linda Constant which might be helpful for you people out there needing to write essays regarding Hallyu. Can erm, borrow some ideas about how kpop is one of the ways soft power is exerted over the world. And in her article we see how KPOP is taking over the world baby~~ Share the Kpop love everyone!

If your teachers disagree, well,
