enjoyed briefly being discussant for @sfuCMNS's Professor Dal Yong Jin at @EdinburghUni @KoreanEdinburgh's ECRC talking on K wave and Western cultural hegemony... #KoreanStudies
...As a Human/Critical Geographer though I do find monolithic notions of West problematic, because where is this West, and is everywhere/everyone there Western?...
...also researching to be Prof Dal Yong Jin's discussant I found his article in the Korea Journal vol 60.1 which has a line which could only be in a #KoreanStudies journal 'Unlike Japanese popular culture, with its emphasis on odorless hybrid
culture'... 10.25024/kj.2020.60.1.40
...Although it might tenuous to call them popular, how can any popular culture which produces something like 不失者 Fushitsusha and the legendary 灰野 敬二 Keiji Haino be odorless? 🤷‍♂️ Image
