Korean Pop Music

Throughout Asia, Korean Pop music has been a highly commercial industry. Heavily influenced by Western Pop music, Korean pop music is a product of young fashionable stars with the latest looks, swinging dance moves and an uncanny ability to fuse the western pop music with Korean rap, Korean soul or Korean “RnB”. “Korean wave” or “Hallyu” a new word coined by Asians came to symbolize the contemporary Korean music and pop stars that have taken the world by storm. Korean influence in Asia has now become prevalent and undeniable.
