K-pop and Black Culture: The Influence of Black America on the Korean Music Industry

Panelists discussed how South Korean popular music, or K-pop, has become a global phenomena in the past decade, and the ways in which it has been influenced by Black culture, and how the K-pop industry and its fandom have engaged with the Black diaspora over the years. 

NABEA brought together two experts for this special discussion: Dr. Crystal Anderson, Affiliate Faculty at the School of Art and African and African American Studies and Robert Augustine, Founder of Arimé.
