Examining China and South Korea’s co-productions. Creative Industries Journal : 1-13.

Focusing on China’s film industry, as of 2021, China sits at the top spot in terms of box office revenues and has been opened to co-producing with other national industries. To promote cultural flows in East Asia, Koreans are keen to develop the relationship due to China’s growing reach and its promising returns. But when transnational collaborations such as co-producing takes place, it can result in various forms of cultural complexity that may hinder discussions and negotiations. Through semi-structured interviews with Korean filmmakers, the paper examines how complexities are untangled when the two nations collaborate. Demonstrating the importance of obtaining cultural intelligence, the paper shows how cultural capital impacts Korean filmmakers as they navigate language and cultural differences. | Source Title: | Creative Industries Journal | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/243490 | ISSN: | 1751-0708 1751-0694 |
