Even though there are no signs of improvement in the worsened relationship between Japan and Korea, K-POP content is still gaining popularity in Japan. An Asian-scale K-POP award ceremony was decided to be held in Japan, and the Japanese version of the Korean idol excavation program began. Concerns and positive opinions are mixed among Korean Internet users and experts. South Korea's major content company CJ ENM has recently announced that it will hold a music award ceremony “Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA)” on December 4th in Nagoya Dome, Aichi Prefecture. It is a large K-POP festival and is held every year in various countries and regions such as Japan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and Vietnam. The political conflict between Japan and South Korea is deepening now, and the Korean non-buying movement for Japanese products continues in Korea. Many people are concerned about MAMA's hosting in Japan under these circumstances. Especially in Aichi Prefecture, there was a history that the special exhibition “Non-Expression Exhibition afterwards” that exhibited “the girl of peace” symbolizing the victims of comfort women at the international art festival “Aichi Triennale 2019” was canceled. . It is also pointed out that the cost of using the dome, etc., benefits the Japanese industry. However, CJ ENM has decided to hold MAMA in Japan for the third consecutive year. The company explained, “Apart from political issues, private cultural exchange should continue.” The Korean government is also positive about private-level cultural exchange. Recently, the Japanese version of Produce 101 Japan, a broadcast of Mnet's idol excavation program "Produce 101" has started. Co-produced by CJ ENM and Yoshimoto Kogyo. The program has become a hot topic not only locally but also in Korea. The audition members in the Japanese version do not belong to the entertainment productions, and there are differences in the level of completion of the stage. Korean program fans compare Japanese and Korean programs while watching the video posting site “YouTube”, and have expressed various opinions on the Internet regarding cultural exchanges while Japan-Korea relations have deteriorated. As a negative view, “There will be no future cooperation between Japan and Korea. Only Japanese industry will be expanded.” “K-POP know-how is also a technology, but if Japan is pushed so much, technology will leak.” And so on. On the other hand, there are also arguments such as “a large amount of foreign currency earned in the Japanese market, which is exported,” and “future generations in Japan will become more friendly to Korea as they experience Korean content power”. When I looked at the YouTube video of “PRODUCE 101 JAPAN”, many Japanese seemed to be friendly. There are opinions such as “If the relations between the two countries get better sooner (good)” “Friendly Korean, support the Japanese version”. On the other hand, Korean Internet users also responded in Japanese that “they are attractive in the Japanese version. When I asked a Korean expert about the MAMA Japan event, Lim Jin-mo, a music critic, said, “I think it would be burdensome to hold a performance in a situation where the relationship between Japan and Korea is worst. In particular, (Korea) people will not feel good. " Popular culture critic Ha Jae-gun pointed out, “Because I didn't cut off Japan, private-level exchanges should continue, and over criticizing them is a problem.” Regarding MAMA holding, he said, “It is necessary to analyze the pros and cons of whether or not going to Japan and doing such an event has a greater benefit to Japan, or a greater profit for Korea to expand the market and enhance competitiveness.” It was. * Some excerpts from the link below.
