List

[edit]

Hi I've removed this list from the Iran section, (1) Because it doesn't fit with what the section is (foreign relations), (2) Because it appears its inclusion is the result of WP:COATRACK, and (3) It likely belongs in a different article, but certainly not the main article for the Korean Wave. Therefore, I've added it here, so that its not forever deleted.

I'm also doubtful about the notability of the whole fan clubs section, which is mostly sourced to press releases from the Korean government or just re-reports of press releases the Korea Times and the like. Nor do I find evidence that the table or the image in that section is really helpful for anyone? Lmk if anyone disputes this, otherwise I'll remove it later. :3 F4U (they/it) 14:47, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I see in the history that it was added by a sockpuppet. Removing now. :3 F4U (they/it) 12:28, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cultural appropriation/Criticism section

[edit]

I've removed the additions originating from this edit, from IP user @2405:201:E021:4B8C:D988:17B5:E0B3:760C, as I don't think it's relevant for an article on the Korean Wave. These are individual controversies of individual K-pop groups or television programs and not something to do with the phenomenon itself. Bringing it up here in case anyone disagrees, and because I think these are important pieces of information to have on Wikipedia, just not this article. I previously rephrased the section, but it really needs to be moved to a more appropriate Wikipedia page. :3 F4U (they/it) 13:41, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Hallyu" capitalized?

[edit]

As title. My guess is yes, given that we title case "Korean Wave"? toobigtokale (talk) 00:30, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also is it italicized as per MOS:FOREIGNITALIC? Not sure toobigtokale (talk) 00:32, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Manhwa

[edit]

Hi, I plan to add more information to the Manhwa section. I will explain a bit about the history of Manhwa, the difference between webtoons and Manhwa and then maybe explain why Manhwa has just now become more popular outside of South Korea unlike the other elements of the Korean wave. Here are some sources that I found that I am thinking of using:
