Topic] K-pop's popularity has been growing rapidly in Europe and in other regions of the world. You thought, what do you think are the key success factors for this rapid growth?
K-pop mean Korean pop. Today people know a lot about the k-pop music but that not from the start, they did hard work & made their space of recognition not in Asia but as well Europe. Korean cultured got to be know first though Asian radio channel, Asian t.v channel and international film festival. The most notable and famous t.v series who got most attention in Asia as well in Europe is t.v drama "Winter Sonata." before that without knowing europe people think low of the Korean culture but now they took that interest and know more about the korean culture.
The first artist who took under label Avex agencies of japan is Boa and TVXQ. They made their debut in japan as well and gain popularity as first Korean artist. They also did the tour all over Asia. Nevertheless still the popularity in not enough like Europe artist britney spair, jannifer lopez etc. but lately k-pop gain massively popularity like Europe artist in Asia as well in Europe also. K-pop recently has gained popularity in japan for sure, due to its intense promotion most notably and famous program by Fuji T.V network and Hakuhodo, two of Japan largest medium advertising agencies. They hold the most copyright of the k-pop artist in japan. The more they advertise them the more k-pop artist gain publicity.
The hallyu wave started in Europe when the internet started to become more widely used in common life. So it's the big factor for the artist of the, every nation today. Recently k-pop wave reached every country through internet (video, cf, music etc) and seem that korean entertainment industry quit well understand internet use(no wonder they are the on of the high-tech nation) and the uses that knowledge to promote further spread their artist worldwide.
Why people like them what is the thing people listen them and one time listening is not enough. Bcz lyrics are different, clean and feel fresh(meaning of song) compare to Europe music. They create many different varieties in one single song. On the top the, that they hot & sexy whether they are boys or girl band or single. While they singing they can dance so well that you can't take of your eye from them. Why today people even comparing them now Europe artists bcz Europe artist only released album, do tour and at the end only do interview. On the other hand Korean artist not only released the album, they also do so many circular activities 4 there fan's like, perform 4 time a week on music t.v program's, appear in c.f, appear on variety program's (funny, talk show, game show, etc)
DJ or MC on the radio program's and t.v program's, hold a fan meeting and play game with their fan, hold fan signing event at the sponsor event, they promote their album all over the Asia or world. They also act in drama regardless they are not actors. That all things help people to understand them more and made close to their idol.
At the oct of 2010 JYJ released their album worldwide and achieved massvelly success in world wide. They also got the chance to perform on Billboard and there also Artical wrote by Lyndsey Parker which published on yahoo! Website(the world wide website).They also appear on the cover of the international influential billboard magazine. And also latley
Girls' Generation appeared on 'The Late Show with David Letterman'. In that show
only famous artist came. So that also biggest achievement any Asian artist, Peoplemake the artist and fan also fall down the artist. At the 2008 TVXQmade the record on the Guinness World Record by most having the world's largest official fan club. On the other hand sm town mark the milestone on the paris by having the concert on their and helped to emerge the k-pop with Europe . Many thousand of fan came from all cross the country. SOME 7000 Hundred fan's sang song, dance, shouted and wept till thier throat at the Paris sm town concert. There also the fact that most of Asian is lived in europe now, directly or indirectly they belong to korea.
And lastly my opinion as you asked, Korean entertainment culture succeeded beyond the next country due to young fan's access the internet. You tube and another social networking site help to k-pop gain fastest popularity across the Asia, Europe & America. Nothing really surprising how hallyu wave spread all over the world first they stared across the Asian neighborhood country and then all over the Asia , and lastly biggest achievement Europe country. Nobody today dined that they left their mark on Europe entertainment industry....
