About Program
What’s it all about? K-pop (short for Korean pop music) covers a range of musical styles, from electronic and dance-pop to hip hop and R&B. The craze is characterized by cutting-edge music videos with striking audiovisual elements, trendsetting fashion, and highly skilled choreography. Creative use of art, graphics, costumes, and color make this an art form well worth studying.
With CIEE staff, you’ll take a special K-pop tour to several trendy sites throughout the city. Visit entertainment agencies and experience the extreme fan culture first-hand as dedicated fans wait outside for a glimpse of their favorite K-pop idols. Dress in clothing worn by idols in K-pop videos and take photos on stage sets. Attend an Indie concert to experience music beyond K-pop.
