Does anybody know what does "hallyu" and "kabuki" mean?

Hallyu-The Korean Wave
Hallyu is a new term which some Korean marketing genius probably came up with in a boardroom somewhere. Hallyu was invented to increase tourism and raise the profile of Korea in the world.The term 'Hallyu' means the love for Korean pop culture, or the appreciation of all things Korean. Hallyu began roughly 5 years ago when the rest of Asia discovered Korean soap operas. One of the breakthrough dramas was a series called Winter Sonata starring Choi Ji Woo and Bae Young-Joon. After that, more Korean dramas saw their way to foreign shores and Korean films and music started to follow suit. Korean marketing people started to see a Korea-centric trend flowing throughout Asia Hawaii and even in parts of Russia. They dubbed this flow "The Korean Wave" or Hallyu.



Kabuki is a traditional Japanese form of theater with its origins in the Edo period. Kabuki, in contrast to the older surviving Japanese art forms such as No, was the popular culture of the townspeople and not of the higher social classes.

Kabuki plays are about historical events, moral conflicts in love relationships and the like. The actors use an old fashioned language which is difficult to understand even for some Japanese people. They speak in a monotonous voice and are accompanied by traditional Japanese instruments.

The kabuki stage (kabuki no butai) is a rotating stage and is further equipped with several gadgets like trapdoors through which the actors can appear and disappear. Another specialty of the kabuki stage is a footbridge (hanamichi) that leads through the audience.

In the early years, both, men and women acted in Kabuki plays. Later during the Edo period, the Tokugawa shogunate forbade the acting to women, a restriction that survives to the present day. Several male kabuki actors are, therefore, specialized in playing female roles (onnagata).

The best place for tourists to see a kabuki play is in the Kabukiza Theater in the Ginza district in Tokyo, where it is possible to rent English headphones and see just one act of a play instead of sitting through a whole performance which not seldomly lasts more than three hours.

Note that during kabuki plays, it is common for fans in the audience to shout the name of their favorite actor just in the right moment during short pauses.

Do Koreans get annoyed with Koreaboos?

Personally I do. I have no problem with non-Koreans liking Korean things (dramas, KPop) or being interested in our culture or asking questions about our history or wanting to learn our language. I think that’s sweet. That’s also not being a Koreaboo. Koreaboos are non-Koreans (in America usually white people) who basically want to BE Korean or who think that they can some how become Korean. At first I saw the Weeaboos, those obsessed with Japan, but in the last 10 years or so it’s been Koreaboos. Contrary to popular belief Koreaboos are not just little white girls who want to grow up and marry a Korean man and live in Korea thinking this will make them Korean too (it won’t) and most Korean men do not look like drama actors or KPop stars so they’re going to be disappointed (I think they’re attractive but then again I’m Korean). Koreaboos are quite often middle aged white (or sometimes black) men who think by marrying a Korean woman they’ll become Korean. Or even older white women who befriend Korean women to “become more Korean��. You can’t become Korean, the only way to be Korean is to be born to at least one Korean parent. These people usually speak Konglish (English with a few Korean words thrown in, usually not pronounced correctly) and are obsessed with anything and everyone Korean. My children and I have been befriended by Koreaboos, we’ve been asked out by Koreaboos. It’s not because they like us as people or as women, it’s only because we are Korean. I think Australia is cool but I don’t walk around speaking in their accent and pretending to be Austrailian. That’s just stupid. Part of my irritation is cultural appropriation, the rest is just annoyance at people trying to be what they are not. And it’s hurtful to find out someone only likes you because of your race. I don’t see them as much in Korea as I do in the US. Korean men seem to have less of a problem with it, having a little white girl fall all over you is ok to some Korean men, others are just as annoyed because they realize that it’s not them as a person, it’s their race only. But in general, most Koreans I know appreciate people who are interested in our culture or our language or our food but Koreaboos are on another level. Anyone who is obsessed with anything isn’t someone I want to be around.
