FROM J-POP TO K-POP: The Rise of a New Cultural Hub in East Asia

Among the many contents of Hallyu, K-pop and its idol groups are some of its leading and most popular elements. However, in order to better understand the rise of K-pop, it is important to analyze J-pop and its previous dominance in East Asia. Those two trajectories  will be the topic of the discussion.
