Mediating Gender in Post-Authoritarian South Korea is a groundbreaking academic volume that explores the relationship between media representation and gender politics in South Korea. Its chapters feature notable voices of South Korea's burgeoning sphere of gender critique enabled by social media, making it a unique and valuable contribution to the field of Anglophone studies on this topic. The volume seeks to interrogate the role of popular media in establishing and shaping gendered common sense, arguing that gender discourse and representation are central to the politics, aesthetics, and economics of contemporary South Korea. In the post-authoritarian period (the late 1980s to the #MeToo present), media representation and popular discourse have changed the gender conventions that are found at the core of civic, political, and cultural debates. The volume maps the ways in which popular media and public discourse make the social dynamics of gender visible and open them up for debate and dismantling. It presents innovative new research on the ways in which popular ideas about gender gain concrete form and political substance through mass mediation, exploring the discursive production of gender in contemporary South Korea through trends, tropes, and thematics. The essays in this volume present cases and media objects that span multiple media and platforms, introducing new ways of thinking about gender as a platform and a conceptual infrastructure in the post-authoritarian era.
