Abstract

This research discusses the attitude of President Moon Jae-In in THAAD placement. THAAD is a defense system against short and medium-range missiles. In February 2016, South Korea and the United States reached an agreement on the plan to deploy Terminal High Altitude Area Defense or THAAD in South Korea. In the process of reaching this agreement, South Korea faces complex considerations that are both internal (increasing national security) and external (possible resistance from China and Russia). Moreover, in the middle of the process of implementing THAAD placement, there was a change of government from Park Geun-Hee to Moon Jae-In. China used several official and unofficial media to pressure South Korea during Park Geun-Hee's reign. This problem continued until the government changed to Moon Jae-In, but in the end the THAAD problem was resolved. This background leads to the research question: what factors are contributing behind Moon Jae-In's attitude regarding THAAD placement? By applying the descriptive-analysis method with data sources in the form of online media, this study aimed to explain the background that drove Moon Jae-In to resolve conflicts related to THAAD placement. The results of the analysis showed that there were political, economic, and social factors that drived changes related to the conflict over the placement of THAAD during the reign of Moon Jae-In.

Abstract

After the Korean War ended in 1953, Western culture rooted in the United States dominated South Korean society. This study analyses the influence of Confucianism norms on the miniskirt policy in South Korea in 1973. The Miniskirt policy is one of the policies contained in the Minor Offences Act or Gyeongbeomjoecheobeolbeop which was passed in 1973. In this law, one of the violations is overexposure, which refers to women wearing miniskirts. At that time, the police usually carried a ruler on patrol and often stopped women who wore skirts to measure the length. If the skirt worn has a hemline of 17 cm above the knee, the woman will be penalized. This policy was made because the view of the miniskirt does not fit the norms and traditions of the Korean women clothing, which creates controversy. Therefore, the research question in this study is how Confucianism norms justify the miniskirt policy for Korean women. This study uses a descriptive analysis method with the help of literature study. This study aims to explain Confucianism norms as the influence of the establishment of the South Korean miniskirt policy in 1973. The results show that the establishment of the miniskirt policy in 1973 was triggered by Confucianism norms, especially dress etiquette for Korean women which were regulated by Confucian officials. This norm was re-emphasized during the Park Chung-hee era through this policy, where Confucianism was a value that was applied to his government to strengthen the identity of the Korean nation.

Abstract

Haenyeo or 'female divers' have been the livelihood of most women in Jeju since 1700 years ago. When Japan launched its capitalist action in Korea in the 1930s, the participation of the haenyeo was considered beneficial to the colonial economy because of their skills in collecting Jeju Island seafood. By using history method, this study tries to look at the track record of the haenyeo who had become symbols of Jeju's history and culture, as one of the agents who fought for the rights of the Jeju people during the Japanese imperialism period 1931-1932, when Japan exploitation on Jeju fishing sector had grown massive. This study also sees the important influence of enlightenment education in growing awareness and fighting spirit of the haenyeo, so that they were able to overcome their limitations as a subordinated group within the social and economic structure, to appear as agents capable of driving colonial resistance actions.Haenyeo atau ‘penyelam perempuan’ telah menjadi suatu mata pencaharian sebagian besar perempuan di Jeju sejak 1700 tahun yang lalu. Ketika Jepang melancarkan aksi kapitalismenya di Korea pada tahun 1930-an, partisipasi haenyeo dinilai menguntungkan perekonomian kolonial karena keterampilan mereka dalam mengumpulkan hasil laut Pulau Jeju. Dengan menggunakan metode sejarah dan studi literatur, penelitian ini mencoba melihat rekam jejak para haenyeo yang telah menjadi simbol sejarah dan kebudayaan Jeju, sebagai salah satu agen yang memperjuangkan hak rakyat Jeju pada masa imperialisme Jepang 1931-1932, ketika eksploitasi Jepang di sektor perikanan Jeju semakin masif. Penelitian ini juga melihat adanya pengaruh penting pendidikan pencerahan dalam menumbuhkan kesadaran dan semangat juang para haenyeo, sehingga mereka mampu meretas keterbatasan mereka sebagai golongan yang tersubordinasi dalam struktur sosial dan ekonomi, untuk tampil sebagai agen yang mampu memotori aksi resistensi kolonial.

Abstract

This study examines the deconstruction of female gender stereotypes through the character Yuna in the game Ghost of Tsushima. The analysis employs a qualitative approach that explores narrative, visual, and gameplay aspects. The theoretical framework draws on Judith Butler’s gender performativity, Marie-Laure Ryan’s digital narrative theory, and Stuart Hall’s representation theory to identify forms of resistance to traditional gender norms reflected in the game industry. The findings indicate that Yuna emerges as an active agent who influences the protagonist’s ideological development, plays a significant role in shaping the overall narrative direction, and avoids visual objectification. This study is expected to contribute to gender studies in interactive media and highlight the potential of video games as a medium capable of presenting more inclusive and progressive representations of women in popular culture.

Abstract

This research explores the role of Korean dramas (K- dramas) as a catalyst for South Korea’s cultural diplomacy in Indonesia over the decade 2015–2025, emphasizing how major drama releases contribute to strengthening soft- power influence. In early March 2024, Netflix premiered the Korean drama “Queen of Tears,” which quickly rose to the top of the Non- English Global TOP 10 list for the week of March 25–31, recording 93.8 million viewing hours. The drama reached top- 10 rankings in 68 countries, including the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, and India. This global achievement represents the culmination of a decade- long effort by South Korea to construct the perception and appeal of the Korean Wave (Hallyu), reinforcing its role as a powerful instrument of cultural diplomacy. Hallyu has expanded considerably as a strategic soft- power tool, enabling South Korea to improve international relations while simultaneously driving significant economic gains. The global consumption of Hallyu products increased South Korea’s GDP by 0.2% in 2004, equivalent to approximately 1.87 billion dollars, and continued to rise to 12.3 billion dollars by 2019. This economic impact demonstrates how South Korea’s cultural industries have become central to the nation’s diplomatic and economic strategies. Indonesia plays a key role in this development; according to a 2023 South Korean government survey, Indonesia ranked first among 26 countries in the consumption of Korean cultural content, reaching 35.5%. This high level of engagement reflects the deep cultural connection built through sustained exposure to K- dramas. This study applies both qualitative and quantitative methods to assess how South Korean cultural diplomacy particularly through K- dramas has influenced public perception, cultural affinity, and cross- sector economic impacts in Indonesia. Particular focus is given to “Queen of Tears” and its implications for South Korea’s tourism and beauty industries by late 2024, both from Indonesian audiences and the broader international market. The findings indicate that narrative appeal, emotional depth, and global digital distribution channels have significantly strengthened South Korea’s soft- power presence in Indonesia, contributing to increased cultural exchange and positive bilateral sentiment. Overall, this research concludes that K- dramas represent one of South Korea’s most successful cultural diplomacy instruments over the last decade, shaping cultural preferences and fostering deeper international engagement.
