Abstract

This study investigates how digital media—particularly TikTok and Korean dramas (K-Dramas)—shape affective aspirations and romantic desires among university students at Pattimura University in Ambon. The focus lies in exploring how young adults imagine and idealize romantic partners through media representations they routinely consume, and how these representations are mediated by local cultural contexts. Employing a qualitative interpretative approach, the research draws on in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and light netnographic observation of media interactions in Ambon. Data analysis uses thematic analysis to examine meaning-making processes, affective dynamics, and gender representations within popular culture. Findings reveal that romantic portrayals in K-Dramas and TikTok function not merely as entertainment, but as symbolic frameworks shaping relational aspirations and emotional values among youth. The study highlights ongoing negotiations between global romantic ideals and local identities in the postcolonial social setting of Eastern Indonesia. Its novelty lies in integrating theories of affective sociology and mediatization within an underexplored peripheral context, while introducing “affective aspirations” and “mediated desires” as conceptual tools for analyzing contemporary intimacy. This research contributes to cultural and affective sociology by demonstrating that love and intimacy are not purely personal experiences, but socially constructed through the symbolic economy of digital media and global cultural flows.

Abstract

This article examines the process of media commodification and the journalistic dilemma of objectivity in Kabar Timur, a local news outlet in Ambon City, using a sociological approach that highlights the tension between market logic and social values. The study aims to analyze how Kabar Timur responds to economic pressures through news commodification practices, and how it balances promotional interests with its public responsibility in delivering information. Employing a qualitative methodology, the research draws on field observation, in-depth interviews with journalists and editors, and content analysis of news products. The findings reveal a hybrid strategy that blends market demands—via advertorial-style reporting—with efforts to maintain balanced and informative narratives to preserve reader trust. The study shows that local media in peripheral regions of Indonesia are not merely passive victims of commercialization, but active, adaptive agents negotiating journalistic professionalism within economic constraints and local cultural frameworks. This article contributes conceptually to the sociology of media by exploring how institutional agency is enacted in the context of global capitalism. Furthermore, it underscores the importance of understanding media dynamics from localized perspectives as a foundation for building more inclusive and context-sensitive media theory. The study recommends strengthening the economic independence of local media without compromising ethical orientation and social function.

The research informants consisted of the chair and members of Commission 2, Commission 4, and the Regional Regulation Discussion Agency of the Central Maluku DPRD.

The results of the study show that candidates actively engage in political interaction with the community through various social and economic programs, such as social assistance, youth empowerment, and improvement of educational facilities, thereby gaining significant support and seats in the DPRD. The deliberation process for local regulations proceeded in accordance with the procedures stipulated by the Minister of Home Affairs Regulation, with maximum public participation through seminars involving various stakeholders from the sub-districts. The resulting local regulations have strong legal force and a positive impact on the community, the business world, and an increase in Local Own-Source Revenue. The DPRD's supervision of the implementation of local regulations is carried out effectively and to the maximum extent possible, supporting the successful implementation of various local regulations in Central Maluku.
