AB - The market of popular songs in Korea is revolving around K-Pop. The popular songs which started to gel into the proper shape through Japanese colonial era when the popular songs were generated were taken the lead of the market by the resistivity music revolved by the ‘star system’ during the military dictatorship period, and it seems that the critical perspective like ‘Most of the songs are all about love story” caused at this time.
Although protest song, fork or rock, etc. pursued resistiveness, the difficult conditions to be the mainstream popular music formed the groundwork for a long period of time. This atmosphere continued even after the civilian government and musicians have steadily made the conformist music through the sanctions by the public service broadcaster.
Seo Taiji who appeared in 1992 seems to have played a large role in settling the Korean rap and number of singers accepted the hip-hop culture like Seo Taiji and K-Pop got the current shape through the process of applying it to their music. However, in the process of their spirit of hip-hop transformed into K-Pop, castration of another spirit of resistance was made.
Although the resistance contents, graffiti, DJing, B-boying, etc. which are the important part of the hip-hop culture are ignored and ‘rap music’ exists,it should be transformed into current K-Pop which doesn't take the role and can be the localized product of hip-hop. It seems that it is because of our unique cultural environment and K-Pop which acquired a global presence has developed, maintaining the disconnected gap between the older generation. This paper studies the The Formation of Korean Rap and Development of K-Pop.
