Abstract

The two biggest stories of 2021 in South Korea were a cutthroat presidential nomination and the nationwide outcry over soaring housing prices. Both the ruling and opposition parties had gone through a noisy and murky nomination process. In 2021, housing prices continued to rise, causing citizens’ anxiety and anger to reach their peak, and the president apologized for the failure of the real estate policy. Despite the maladministration, president Moon Jae-in, unlike previous presidents, did not become a lame duck. Meanwhile, the popularity of Hallyu, or the Korean Wave, continued with the success of the movie Minari, K-pop band BTS, and the Netflix drama series Squid Game.

2021年的韩国

2021年韩国最大的两件事是一场激烈的总统提名，另一件事是全国对房价飙升的强烈抗议。执政党和反对党都经历了一个嘈杂而模糊的提名过程。2021年，房价持续上涨，国民的焦虑和愤怒达到了顶峰，总统为房地产政策的失败道歉。文在寅总统虽然执政失当，但与历届总统不同，他没有成为“跛脚鸭”。另外，随着电影《Minari》、防弹少年团(BTS)、Netflix电视剧《Squid Game》的成功，韩流人气持续高涨。

期刊介绍： The only academic journal of its kind produced in the United States, Asian Survey provides a comprehensive retrospective of contemporary international relations within South, Southeast, and East Asian nations. As the Asian community’s matrix of activities becomes increasingly complex, it is essential to have a sourcebook for sound analysis of current events, governmental policies, socio-economic development, and financial institutions. In Asian Survey you’ll find that sourcebook. Asian Survey consistently publishes articles by leading American and foreign scholars, whose views supplement and contest meanings disseminated by the media.
