🌈✨ CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS ✨🌈
Hi everyone! I’m Jazz, and I’m currently working on my PhD dissertation on the experiences of queer K-pop fans. In particular, I’m interested in queer fans of K-pop girl groups, and I’m hoping to interview folks about your experiences within queer fan spaces, as well as being a fan of the artist you love! This research explores the intersection of fan participation and queer identity, particularly in relation to girl groups and “girl crush” concepts. It looks at how queer fans of female K-pop idols build community, interpret queerness, and connect with one another across different platforms. If that sounds like you, I’d love to hear from you!
What’s involved?
A 60 min interview (either on Zoom or in person).
In-person interviews are possible within the next 4 months if you’re based in Vancouver, London (ON), Seoul, or Busan.
Participation is voluntary, confidential, and you can skip any questions or stop at any time!
If you’re interested, please feel free to DM me here on Tumblr or email me at [email protected]. I am also happy to answer any questions about myself or the project at any time!
Please feel free to reblog and share with others who might be interested! Thank you!
