***The Winner of the KBS Seoul Prize 2012, 'The Best TV program' *** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hallyu (aka Korean wave) is getting increasingly popular in the city of Toronto, the centre for arts and entertainment. There have been numerous K-pop flash mobs, one of which received a great deal of attention from various media platforms. Also, whenever there is a K-pop concert, people all over Ontario gather and go fanatic about it. Now Hallyu is taking over colleges, high schools and even elementary schools with the help of organized fan groups. Along with K-pop, the interests for Korean language, Korean drama and Korean food have immensely increased, and the value of the Korean nation as a brand is highly deemed. However, despite this great interest and demand, the support for and communication with the fans from the Korean community is still lacking. This documentary asks how the government of Korea and the Korean community in Toronto can support the fans by listening to their concerns and demands. Moreover, as the year of 2013 is the 50th anniversary of diplomatic ties between Korea and Canada, the documentary suggests utilizing Hallyu as a new way of diplomatic approach. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Super Channel All TV-The Spirit of Korea National television network playing the best programs from SBS, MBC and KBS.
