  8. The success of Pororo and Pucca makes Korea a rising star in the global character business, a core product in the cultural content industry. This promises to be a growing business in Asia, and also in Europe, the U.S. and Japan.

  9. Bae Young-chul, the animation character team manager from Korea Culture & Content Agency said, "Korean character firms are still not strong enough to make hefty investments such as building theme parks (like Disney). We need to develop an industry structure where companies can earn more royalties through more diverse content including publishing, fashion and games."

  10. Globalize Korean Cultural Contents?

  11. NANTA gives clue to globalization By Kim Jae-kyoung, Chung Min-uck 06-26-2011 The Korea Times K-pop has swept through Asia and is now spreading in the West. A successful concert by SM Entertainment, “SM Town Live World Tour,” drew some 7,000 European fans at its first event in Paris and seems to prove that the magic is starting to work in Western markets too. It is too early to say the Korean music business has successfully entered the Western market since, as in many cases in the past, it could be just a passing fad.

  12. Over the past decade, many Korean artists and musicians have tried to make forays into Western markets but most of them ended without fruition due to various reasons, such as cultural differences and language barriers. While many have failed in their attempts to go abroad, there is only one Korean performance that has been accepted and loved by the world in a sustainable manner. It is NANTA, a non-verbal performance that integrates Korea’s traditional rhythm, Samulnori, with comedy and drama in a kitchen. It was the first show from Asia to hit New York’s Broadway, which highlighted the potential of a Korean performance to the world. The successful globalization of NANTA provides important messages not only to K-pop artists and CEOs of entertainment businesses but also to Korean conglomerates that are stepping up efforts to increase their presence in global markets.
