(3) 4-6 Kallen explains that South Korean K-Pop is not just Psy's "Gangnam Style": "K-Pop artists have been performing and recording...since the 1990s." The book then chronologically describes the artists (and record labels) that made K-Pop successful. It's a comprehensive introduction to the genre, accompanied by well-chosen stock photos and sidebars; a playlist of recommended songs concludes each chapter. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
