How is hip hop understood within historical, sociocultural, and economic matrices of Korean society? How is hip hop represented in Korean media and popular culture? This book utilizes ethnographic methods, including fieldwork research and life timeline interviews with fifty-three influential hip hop artists, in order to answer these questions. It explores the nuanced meaning of hip hop in South Korea, outlining the local, global, and (trans)national flows of musical and cultural exchanges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout the chapters, Korean hip hop is examined through the notion of \u003ci\u003eburan\u003c\/i\u003e—personal and societal anxiety or uncertainty—and how it manifests in the dimensions of space and place, economy, cultural production, and gender. Ultimately, \u003ci\u003eburan\u003c\/i\u003e serves as a metaphoric state for Hanguk hip hop in that it continuously evolves within the conditions of Korean society.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2019-05-08\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030156961\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-15697-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 198\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46026675028108,"sku":"9783030156961","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030156961.jpg?v=1775963134","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783030156961","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
