Korean fever in Thailand
When I say “Korean fever”, most Thai people know it well. If you don’t know, “Korean fever” is something about Korean songs, Korean series, fashions, and etc. Korean fever is extremely popular in Thailand. Most Thai people are interested in Korea fever and like it a lot, especially teenagers. In my opinion, Korean fever is extending to Thailand because of three reasons.
First, you can see many Korean albums at music stores. Korean songs are favorite in Thailand because boy or girl bands from Korea are different from boy or girl bands in Thailand. They can create songs and dance step by themselves, and the performance is live-not lip-synch. So each band has his own style. For example, most Thai girls like “Super Junior”- the Korean boy band a lot.
Second, many channels have Korean series. Korean series have amusing and impressive plot. Thai people like it very much. For example, the famous series “Sin Yoon Bok” .In addition it is the variety of series i.e. Period, love story, comedy, and drama. Therefore, many Thai teenagers and some adults like it a lot.
Finally, Korean series and Korean songs affect Thai’s lives in many ways. Now, most Thai teenagers like Korean hair style and clothes style that they reproduce from the singer or actor. In addition, most Thai people like to eat Korean food and some people learn to cook it.
In conclusion, not only Thailand is influenced by Korea, but also many countries in Asia too. However, Thai people should receive good thing and we must preserve our beautiful culture.
