Introducing Korean Sci-Fi!

Introducing Korean Sci-Fi! 2021.03.08 Beginning of Sci-Fi in Korea To pick the genre that the public has actively consumed in Korea for the past several years, it would be "Science Fiction." However, considering the massive fandom and cultural influence of Sci-Fi in other countries such as the United States, it has not been long since the public in Korea has highlighted the genre. This is why some people think that the Sci-Fi syndrome in Korea is a sudden phenomenon. However, Korea's Sci-Fi genre has been shaped to become what it is today from about 100 years ago, creating the foundation for today's Sci-Fi to be at the center of people's attention. Then, learning the history of Korean Sci-Fi will be a good way to understand it better and get a clearer glimpse of its future outlook. The beginning of Sci-Fi in Korea goes back to 1907.

K-Clothes Culture Beautiful Traditional Attire, Hanbok, Embodies the Spirit and Soul of the Korean People 2021.02.08 The world is taking a greater interest in “Hanbok,” the traditional attire of Korea, along with Korean content going viral across the world. Top K-pop groups BTS, Black Pink, and ITZY have uploaded music videos and choreography videos on YouTube wearing traditional and reinterpreted Hanbok, which focused their global fans’ attention on the attire. Also, the promotional video “Feel the Rhythm of Korea: SEOUL” made by the Korea Tourism Organization featured a mixture of Western and Eastern touches while fully reflecting the unique joy and traditions of Korea. While receiving comments that the attempt was so “hip,” the Dokebbi (goblin) costume people wore in the video naturally drew people’s attention. The reaction of foreigners who saw Korea’s traditional outfits through OTT programs is strong as well. For example, Korea’s traditional...
