I had my third meeting via Zoom with my conversation partner Suyeol on Thursday, July 23 at 3:30 pm. During our meeting, we primarily discussed our favorite types of movies and TV shows and exchanged Netflix recommendations with one another. We also discussed the K-pop industry in South Korea, and Suyeol actually showed me a presentation he had made for a CIES class about K-pop. In particular, we discussed how many years of training K-pop singers must go through and the fact that they often must sign very long-term contracts once they join a group. It was fascinating for me to get further insight into K-pop culture from someone who has experienced it first-hand, and I was also excited to get some good music and Netflix recommendations from our conversation!
