AT&T Survey Reveals That Guys Still Gab More - BarelyMEDIA CULTURE AND INDUSTRY
IN ASIA
2007 International Conference
15-17 November 2007
Seoul, Korea
Hosted by iCat, Hallym University
Sponsored by Media 2.0 Network
Objective
The world of media industry in Asia is fast changing and growing. One of the
noticeable changes in that track is increasing volume of transnational
distribution and consumption of media products: Television dramas, films,
animations, manga/manhwa, computer games, and pop music among others. While
they are becoming the main feature of transnational media contents these days,
the way we view and imagine the media world seems to still be 'national(istic)'
than transnational or global. The conference aims to bring observations,
analyses, reports, arguments, and insights on this transnationalizing media
of/in Asia from both cultural perspectives and industrial interventions.
Topics considered
States of media industry in Asia or in an Asian country
Changing media environment, industry, and regulation
Transnational distribution and consumption of media in Asia
Media 2.0 and the future of media industry and culture

Cultural hybridization and global media
Manga/manhwa and animation
