Hallyu! Member Preview
The Asian Art Museum invites members to join us for a first look at Hallyu! before it opens to the public.
You’re invited to step into the spectacular world of Korean dramas, music, film, TV, fashion, and beauty — from Netflix hits like “Squid Game” and the Academy Award-winning “Parasite” to chart-topping K-pop idols and influential designers — and discover how South Korea reinvented itself as a 21st-century pop culture phenomenon. Created by the V&A and touring the world, Hallyu! The Korean Wave includes nearly 200 objects and artworks that illustrate the limitless flow of creativity powering the world’s biggest, fastest-growing contemporary cultural wave from Asia.
Hallyu! The Korean Wave is organized by the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. Presentation is made possible with the generous support of the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation, CJ ENM, Google.org, John S. Osterweis, and Salle E. Yoo and Jeffrey P. Gray. Additional support is provided by the National Museum of Korea, ParksKitchen, the San Francisco Chronicle, and Heayoon Woo and David Lee.
Sustained support generously provided by the Akiko Yamazaki and Jerry Yang Endowment Fund for Exhibitions.
