K-pop culture from the point of view of system analysis
The article presents the consideration of k-pop culture as a set of elements of system analysis. This topic is relevant because the original purpose of system analysis was to simplify the representation of complex phenomena in the context of a system model. K-pop is unique not only for its musical or cultural characteristics, but also for its way of functioning, which at first glance may seem confusing, which creates a dual attitude towards this cultural offshoot on the part of ordinary people. A simple system model of functioning allows you to get to know k-pop better and understand the principle of its functioning. The main purpose of the study is an attempt to present k-pop as a simplified system for explaining its functioning. The research method is modeling, since in the course of the article, based on the information presented, a hypothetical system with a set of functioning elements inside it is presented. Over time, system analysis undergoes changes and transforms into the concept of a system consisting of elements, subsystems and components. Each system has its own purpose and observer. However, systems can be quite difficult to understand, so there are several primary characteristics for describing systems that help to understand how stable and stable the system in question is. By superimposing the k-pop industry on the described model, it is possible to teach a system within which there are subsystems in the form of agencies, the elements of which are the agency's management, its employees and the musical performers themselves. They interact with a subsystem such as other celebrities, with whom they can collaborate to increase their popularity rating. This system also circulates the release of merch, which is an important part of achieving the goal of enrichment, and fans, whose attention is the key to achieving the goal of popularity. In fact, the system has two main goals - to enrich itself and gain popularity. The state can be considered an observer of the system, since it supports this activity, since it brings the necessary popularity to the state. This technique can be used in studies of art trends that have a difficult context to understand. The main aspects of these directions can be defined as components of the system and indicate the nature of their interaction, forming a further simplified understanding of the direction as a whole.
