Research question:
How K-pop can gets such popularity from
Hong Kong teenagers?
Introduction:
Aims of my research:
In the start of 00s, our idols are Twins,
Eason Chan, Yung ChoYee, etc. We will buy CDS, or magazine. However, in these
few years K-pop start gets into Hong Kong, many teenage start to listen K-pop
instead of Canto-pop. Especially, the news appears the most in the teenage
magazine is Korea singer, not Chinese singer anymore.
My aims of my research is to find K-pop
have what special characteristics, example, melody, music video, the package of
idol, etc. can get attention from Hong Kong teenage.
Significance of research:
The significance of this research is want
to see why K-pop can suddenly get such a big attention from the teenagers
grips, hope to find out what is the main points of K-pop and how they can get
influence in this few years, not just a short time.
Major points of research:
1) Why the teenages like to listen K-pop and
Korean Idols.
2) From the package of idol and music to
see how success of Korea can get such popularity
3) Can K-pop still can last longer within this few years?
Methods to be used:
I suggest using both of qualitative and quantitative research method.
In qualitative research, i will first invite about 30 teenagers that around 16-22 years old (include the group are not addicted at K-pop) to do questionnaire to see what the Hong Kong teenagers think about K-pop.
On the other hand, i will have an in-depth interviews with 5 teenagers who around 18-22 years in Hong Kong and they like to listen to K-pop and have bought their CDS and have been went to their concerts.

Question I suggest to ask in the interview:
How long have you been listening to K-pop?
What are the charming parts of the
singer/group you like?
Which you think is the most important thing
that makes you get into K-pop, idols or songs?
How much you put on K-pop?
Do you think it is worth it to pay those prices on K-pop?
How much you put on K-pop?
Do you think it is worth it to pay those prices on K-pop?
Do you think the K-pop culture can affect last more longer?
Hi Jodi, There are no serious flaws in the proposed research. The topic can be more straightforward - "Why do Hong Kong teenagers like consuming Korean music?" Indepth interviews supplemented by a simple structured questionnaire would be fine. Please go ahead with your project.
