摘要：Korea is a conservative Asian country with a Confucian background and strong groupist tendencies. However, it is also a very young and modern country that has achieved rapid modernization, industrialization, informatization and globalization in a short period of time. The development of the Internet in particular has opened doors for youths to interact with and experience youth subcultures of the west further, and for Korean youths to form their own unique subcultures, too. This study examines current Korean youth subcultures in terms of their social and cultural background, values, and especially focuses on the observation of subculture styles that express Korean society and the minds of youths in the 2000s.
