In /Transnational Korean Cinema/ author Dal Yong Jin explores the 
interactions of local and global politics, economics, and culture to 
contextualize the development of Korean cinema and its current place in 
an era of neoliberal globalization and convergent digital technologies.

The book emphasizes the economic and industrial aspects of the story, 
looking at questions on the interaction of politics and economics, 
including censorship and public funding, and provides a better view of 
the big picture by laying bare the relationship between film industries, 
the global market, and government. Jin also sheds light on the 
operations and globalization strategies of Korean film industries 
alongside changing cultural policies in tandem with Hollywood’s 
continuing influences in order to comprehend the power relations within 
cultural politics, nationally and globally. This is the first book to 
offer a full overview of the nascent development of Korean cinema.
