La presenta ricerca si propone di indagare il fenomeno di Hallyu o Korean Wave dalle origini fino agli sviluppi nell’era delle tecnologie digitali e della convergenza mediale. In particolare, l’elaborato prende in analisi la sua declinazione nel campo dell’industria musicale del K-pop, in cui si evolvono forme di immersione, interattività e transmedialità. Attraverso gli studi di Transmedia Storytelling e degli ecosistemi narrativi viene preso in analisi il caso del gruppo coreano “BTS” con l’universo narrativo “Bangtan Universe”, che permette di mettere in atto una serie di ragionamenti sul ruolo e l’importanza delle narrazioni estese nel panorama mediale del digitale.
