Recent international media headlines on South Korean popular culture and its success clearly show how it is going global and making tangible impact worldwide. In the context of the fast-growing international prominence of South Korean popular culture, known as the Korean Wave or Hallyu, this project establishes an interdisciplinary 'Hallyu Network' between scholars from the UK and South Korea, to explore the multifaceted process of the mainstremisation, institutionalisation and canonisation of Korean culture and creativity. The 2022 Hallyu Exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum offers a timely case study for the project, which will explore: how Hallyu from South Korea becomes mainstreamed globally and what are the UK connections with this phenomenon; how Hallyu fans create and exercise their influence; how popular Hallyu becomes art Hallyu and what roles the arts and heritage organisations play in this process. The project also aims to promote knowledge exchange and networking between academics, creative industries and policy makers in the UK and South Korea and this will be done through a series of network activities including seminars, roundtables, symposium and workshops held in London and Seoul. This Hallyu Network consists of scholars across the academic disciplines in social science, arts and humanities, including early career researchers from two countries. The participants' wide-ranging expertise are highly relevant to the project objectives while complementing each other. During the 18 months of the project, 5 network events are planned and they are: the opening online meeting (Event 1, April 2022) followed by 2 one-day meetings in London (Event 2 & 3, October 2022), a 2 day-long symposium and workshop in Seoul (Event 4, April 2023) and the final online meeting (Event 5, July 2023) to conclude the project. Event 2 in London will coincide with the 2022 Hallyu Exhibition at the V&A Museum, while Event 3 will be held in collaboration with the Korean Cultural Centre UK, one of the project partners. Event 4, a 2-day long symposium and workshop will be hosted by the Korean research partner, Hanguk University of Foreign Studies. Industry specialists and policy makers will be invited as guests to facilitate wider networking and collaborative opportunities. The seminar sessions will also be open to audiences from academia, media and cultural industries for broader impact. Postgraduate students who study creative industries, media, cultural policy and Korean and Asian studies will also be invited to the seminars. The project outputs will include a journal special issue on the main research themes and a symposium proceedings. The Hallyu Network will also seek further collaboration and funding opportunities for individual researchers, organisations and creative industry sectors from the UK and South Korea, in order to expand our understanding of Hallyu in the making, and its growing impact, as entertainment, art and cultural heritage, both nationally and globally.

最近国际媒体对韩国大众文化及其成功的头条报道清楚地表明，韩国大众文化正在走向全球，并在世界范围内产生切实的影响。在被称为韩流或韩流的韩国流行文化迅速发展的国际背景下，该项目在英国和韩国的学者之间建立了一个跨学科的“韩流网络”，以探索韩国文化和创造力的主流化、制度化和规范化的多方面过程。2022年在维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆举办的韩流展览为该项目提供了一个及时的案例研究，该展览将探讨：来自韩国的韩流如何成为全球主流，英国与这一现象有何联系；韩流粉丝如何创造和运用他们的影响力；韩流如何成为艺术韩流，艺术和遗产组织在这一过程中扮演了什么角色。该项目还旨在促进英国和韩国学术界、创意产业和政策制定者之间的知识交流和网络，这将通过在伦敦和首尔举行的一系列网络活动，包括研讨会、圆桌会议、专题讨论会和讲习班来实现。韩流网络由社会科学、艺术、人文学科的学者组成，包括来自两国的早期职业研究人员。参与者广泛的专业知识与项目目标高度相关，同时相互补充。在项目的18个月期间，计划了5次网络活动，它们是：开幕在线会议（活动1,2022年4月），随后在伦敦举行的2天会议（活动2和3,2022年10月），在首尔举行的为期2天的研讨会和讲习班（活动4,2023年4月），以及最后的在线会议（活动5,2023年7月），以结束项目。活动2将与在英国V&A博物馆举办的2022年韩流展同时在伦敦举行，活动3将与项目合作伙伴之一的英国韩国文化院共同举办。活动4将由韩国外国语大学主办为期2天的研讨会和研讨会。将邀请行业专家和政策制定者作为嘉宾，以促进更广泛的网络和合作机会。研讨会也将向来自学术界、媒体和文化产业的观众开放，以产生更广泛的影响。研究创意产业、媒体、文化政策、韩国和亚洲研究的研究生也将受邀参加。项目产出将包括一份关于主要研究主题的期刊特刊和一份专题讨论会论文集。韩流网络还将为来自英国和韩国的个人研究人员、组织和创意产业部门寻求进一步的合作和资助机会，以扩大我们对韩流的理解，以及它作为娱乐、艺术和文化遗产在国内和全球范围内日益增长的影响。
