Abstract
In 2016-2017, China's State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television released a series of control measures to limit further expansion of 'Korean Wave' in China. They are the result of the recent escalating political friction between China and South Korea, and 'Korean Wave' becomes the victim of political events. This series of measures is commonly known as 'Korean Performing Arts Activities Ban', which not only changes South Korea's social development but also alerts China's cultural industry. From studying this theme, the primary purpose of this thesis is to explore the complex influences of the political stance over the cultural measure, with a focus on a cultural phenomenon. To achieve this purpose, this thesis discusses from the historical perspective: diplomatic relations between China and South Korea, development of 'Korean Wave' in China, and cultural diplomacies on 'Korean Wave'. After which, details of the interviews of four scholars who directly or indirectly studied cultural exchanges between the two countries, bring unique insights whether cultural measures affected the politics, economy, and culture of the two nations consciously or potentially. In brief, after the issuance of 'Korean Performing Arts Activities Ban in PRC,' the cultural environment in China and South Korea changes enormously. Consequently, policy measures are of great significance for studying cultural phenomena and thinking about industrial development.
