How do Korean art and media communicate individual and social aspirations, ideals, and desires? Search for possible answers to this question by discussing a wide range of artworks and popular images from the late Joseon period to the present day, including court-style screens, religious objects, photographs, and contemporary mixed-media works. Consider and reexamine the concept of hallyu in this context.
