magnificent years of history and tradition,

palaces as well as distinct paintings and

calligraphy.

Power of K-Culture, “Hallyu”

Today, the popularity of “Hallyu,” a

commonly used term meaning "Korean

cultural wave" mainly led by TV dramas

and K-pop, which is everywhere. Hallyu,

also, means the lifestyle with Korea’s high

technology, and the growing aspiration to
