On January 20th, YTN broadcasted a news report about Hallyu Wave in France, probably as an answer to the previously discussed french tv report .




Journalist: The Hallyu Wave which began in Japan and South-East Asia has expanded to Europe. Fans of korean music are increasing in France, country of culture. The journalist Choi Hyo Jin collected informations on the premises.
Choi Hyo Jin: In Paris, not far from the Seine, a nightclub. (*actually ON the Seine since it's a boat). Young french dances on korean music. Fans of Hallyu, they met each others on a Kpop related forum (*litt. fancafe). It's been 10 months they meet each others once a month and dance the whole night.
French fan: Korean artists are very very good at choregraphies, it's very straight, very dynamic.
Choi Hyo Jin: While the interest of France for Korea continues to increase, this year, french TV made a 2h report about Korea. A special lighting/perspective on Hallyu and korean music has been made.
French journalist: There is in France a small group of enthusiasts, absolute fans, of kpop. They have passion etc, they're extrememy experts..
Choi Hyo Jin: Through Facebook and Twitter, the number of Hallyu fans increase, and they mobilize very quickly.
Since november 2010, a petition circulates in order to korean singers to come and hold a concert in France.
Also, fans mobilize to organize a trip in Korea in April 2011 and hope to meet their idols by showing videos of fans to these idols' agencies (*which is on a good way to happen for real)
Korean man in the cube: We're planning to develop Hallyu products including kpop representations for people interested by the Hallyu wave (*idgi but well we already get this) and particularly a welcoming marketing plan of young french in Korea (*nice trad..).
Choi Hyo Jin: The Hallyu wind which was blowing in South-East Asia is in the process of extanding to the Old Continent. From Paris for YTN, Choi Hyo Jin.

This is from last month but i totally forgot about it. And YES i had to do "the man IN THE CUBE".
Also, considering which countries draws interest in kpop, it would make sense that the next SMTown and shits will take place in Brazilia, France and Italy. What is Taiwan?
What are USA?

There was also a coverage by KBS made at the same times...
Don't know when this one will be broadcasted though

There are some mistakes in this report : there aren't only ONE forum dedicated to Kpop, and the Korean Session (the korean parties you can see) are going on for more than 10 months I think

On Belgian tv, we also had a short report on kpop, but it was so blah and awful, i don't want to share it. I was like -.- when i saw it, not a good way to promote kpop at all. Still, on KpopFrance people and on the show blog too went nuts lol.

All this talk of Kpop in France makes me ever so slightly optimistic that concerts will happen there one day. And seeing as I live in England its very possible that I could afford to go *crosses fingers*

When the 2 hours report aired last month on TV5 in Quebec ngl I was completely amazed by Samsung city. Unfortunately I didn't get to watch the whole thing.

(Although obviously I did watch the part on the hallyu wave since I translated it on omona last month.)

Anyway, I can only say one thing to the K-industry: Canada is right above the US, why the fuck do we keep getting ignored. Henry, Alex and G.Na need to do something. (Although Quebec will probably be forgotten still.)

We need more Kpop in France, and in Europe as a whole...

Au fait, qui a vu la vidéo où ils passaient Teen Top au Grand Journal ?
D'après Tania Bruna-Rosso, ça pourrait bien s'exporter en France.
Hm à voir...

I'm not really surprised that kpop is picking up in France. When I went to visit there in December I was surprised at how there was a large population of koreans who study/work/etc there. I went to Champs-Élysées and I saw a lot of korean girls/boys in coffee shops who were studying together. also it was kind of neat to see how Korean Air sponsored everything in museums which means they have a good strong hold there where as opposed to here...I see a korean Air commercial once in a blue moon.

J'ai envie de dire: viendez. De préférence les groupes que j'aime ^^.

Je regarde pas la télé, je vais pas sur les sites francophones (je m'y inscris, je poste une fois et hop disparition xfilienne de rigueur ^^'), je savais pas que c'était en train de manger du terrain comme ça.

En fait si, je suis allé dimanche dernier à la Paris Manga et on va être clair: les stands musique c'était half-Japan, half-korea. Hallucinant. 5 ans avant t'avais que de la jpop et maintenant c'est moitié moitié.

Prochaine Japan Expo, ils vont pouvoir changer un mot. Et ce sera pas Expo...
