Seo, Keunyoung & Hong, Sungkyoo. (2019). The phonological change phenomenon of K-Pop lyrics. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 27(4), 1-20. K-Pop made an attempt to creatively mix and compromise various musical elements from all parts of the world; thus expanded itself to be the leading role in Hallyu, the Korean Wave. The hybrid form of K-Pop is presented not only in musical genre but also in lyrics and pronunciation. The fusion of K-Pop lyrics overcome hearing difficulty due to language difference for global audience and emerged as an exotic freshness to them. This paper closely examined the diction fusion of K-Pop when a chord changes into another, juxtaposing pronunciation system of Korean and English. Furthermore, the study is based on the juxtaposition of pronunciation system of Korean and English: types of diction change for rhythm, types of diction change for English pronunciation of Korean consonant and vowel, and types of diction change for English pronunciation of Korean lyrics in order to match the English lyrics and the rhyme. This research investigated the diction fusion phenomenon of K-Pop lyrics by comparing the pronunciation system of Korean and English; and thus, this research can be distinguished from any other original research result. The paper expects the diction fusion of K-Pop lyrics to be taken in various areas and this new Korean Wave to continue. |
