“I wanted to see what would happen if I made American boys into K-pop performers, by teaching them how to sing in Korean and act like Korean boys, and complicate this flow/appropriation even more, since I’m in New York, where so many talents are just one online recruitment ad away.” -Bora Kim

Not a lot of new views, pretty derivative of the existing narratives and analyses of Korean pop culture, though I suppose their originality is more implementation than theoretical analysis.
