Young Kim

 Amerikan politiikka muuttuu väistämättä uusien kasvojen myötä.

Energizer Bunny status, showdowns at the family pingpong table, representing California’s 39th District in Congress — Rep. Young Kim shares much in common with her former boss, Ed Royce. 

She worked in his Orange County office for two decades, long enough for her kids to start calling him “Uncle Ed.” 

Now, as one of two Korean American Republicans elected to the House last cycle (the other is her friend Michelle Steel), Kim is drawing on her experience as an immigrant amid a changing political party.

"I see the future of our party — the fact that I’m elected, the fact that Michelle is elected,” she said in a phone conversation last week.

Uusi amerikkalainen eliitti ei ole enää niin eurooppakeskeistä. Pidemmän päälle väestösuhteiden muutosm tulee muuttamaan Amerikan politiikkaa rajusti. 

If there was any doubt of Korea’s global street cred on the cultural front, it was allayed last year when Bong Joon-ho’s “Parasite” became the first non-English film to take home the Oscar for best picture. Soon after, mega K-pop group BTS became the first all-Korean band to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart with its English-language hit “Dynamite.” Twenty-six weeks later, it’s still in the top 50.

Muutenkin virta vie pois perinteisestä eurooppalaisuudesta myös musiikissa ja muussa kulttuurisshttps://www.globalatlanta.com/examining-how-k-pop-helps-drive-koreas-global-growth/a. Milloin kiinalainen pop musiikki lyö läpi? Siirrytään j-popista k-poppiin ja sitten c-poppiin,
