My project is titled "The Development and Changes of International E-commerce (Import and Export Trade) in the Chinese Market". This project aims to discuss the development and changes of China's import and export trade. Meanwhile, I would like to point out that the popularity of social media has a significant impact on China's import and export trade.

My video essay titled 'From Korea To The World' analyses the pop culture influence of Hallyu: the popularity of everything K (K-POP, K-DRAMAS...) and how it evolved from its beginnings in the 90s in Asia to its worldwide popularity in 2024 with a focus on technology, fans and social media to try to grasp the ambitious country's past, present and future.

With an emphasis on South Korean and Japanese cinema, I will be creating a video essay which will examine the trend of East Asian films being remade in Hollywood. It will be looking at what qualifies each film for a remake, observing which cultural codes are added or subtracted when they are adapted for a Western audience. With this, I hope to investigate whether or not these remakes will remain marketable and analyse the effects they have to a culturally diverse film industry.
