Korea Next: Finding Hallyuwood
Follow half-Korean, half-British actor Sean Richard as he pulls back the curtain to find the heart of the international phenomenon that is Hallyu, the Korean Wave. Sean meets with Korean singers, actors, film directors, and producers to find out what is unique about Korean music, films and dramas, how they successfully connect with foreign audiences. Then, follow Sean through the conceptualization and training process of a new Korean pop (K-pop) group as well as the creation and production of a Korean television drama. His exploration reveals a deeper truth and critique of the Korean attributes that have made Hallyu what it is today. While these talents have pushed the Korean Wave to succeed until now, find out if change is necessary for the Korean Wave to continue.
