How To Research
Description
"I'm writing fanfiction- what's there to research?" Everything. Whether you're writing fluff without plot or a grand political commentary, research into the context you are writing about is crucial. This is a collection of background information on the many different aspects of the K-Pop fanfiction environments, to help you create a realistic world within your writing with accuracy.
Foreword
If there's anything I've learnt from high school English, it's that all texts- be it novels, films or fanfiction- are shaped by their contexts. I'll be focusing mainly on contemporary South Korea (with extra historical context where needed).
Topics covered:
- High Schools
- University
- Marriage
- Dating
- Military Service*
- Korean Empire *
If you have something you're curious to know more about let me know in the comments, I'm always open to suggestions ^^
Disclaimer: I'm not a literary expert, nor am I Korean. This is a compilation of various sources intended to advise writers and give them an idea of where to start researching.
Please note that updates will be slow as I have uni. I will try to update whenever I can, though!
