| Abstract | This study constitutes a consideration of the sudden excess of youth culture since the 1990s, which was deeply influenced by both domestic politics and global change. I argue that popular culture has existed within youth culture from its beginning in South Korea, and vice versa. This dissertation examines the representation of youth and youth culture in South Korean cinema in relation to other popular culture, with the following aims. ❧ The first consideration is to elaborate upon the relationship between youth culture and the popular media. The second is to examine the mechanism of how youth culture, positioned within popular culture, flourished in South Korea, particularly since the 1990s; situating youth culture in relation to popular culture requires an analysis of the historical, political and social contexts. Thirdly, the dissertation aims to theorize South Korean youth cinema and to elaborate upon both the critical and social aspects of youth cinema. Finally, by analyzing youth films according to specific themes, this dissertation explains how the South Korean media represent youth culture and the meaning(s) produced by representing youth culture through the popular media. This research ultimately aims to explore how youth consumes and negotiates with popular culture. |
