Not only romantic love, several Korean dramas also present the issue of non-romantic love. One drama that presents the issue of non romantic love is Doctor Cha. The purpose of this study was to describe the components and forms of love between Cha Jeongsuk and Seo Inho in Doctor Cha based on Sternberg’s Triangular Theory of Love. The research method used was descriptive qualitative with Sternberg’s Triangular Theory of Love. Out of Sternberg’s three components of love, the research findings indicated that intimacy and passion components were not found, but the decision/commitment component was found in Cha Jeongsuk and Seo Inho’s relationship. The type of love experienced by the couple is empty love. However, after the decision/commitment component disappears, the type of love in Cha Jeongsuk and Seo Inho’s relationship changes to nonlove. </em></p>2024-10-31T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 East Asian Reviewhttps://dev.journal.ugm.ac.id/v3/ear/article/view/12120Pembentukan Kata dan Makna pada Slang Penggemar Boys’ Love (BL)2024-11-20T07:37:16+07:00Untari Widi Hapsariuntariwidi01@mail.ugm.ac.idWiwik Retno Handayaniuntariwidi01@mail.ugm.ac.id<p>Slang adalah sebuah ragam bahasa yang bersifat rahasia dan khusus, hanya digunakan oleh kelompok tertentu (Chaer & Agustina, 2004). Penggemar <em>boys’ love</em> (BL) atau genre cerita romansa seksual sesama jenis antarlaki-laki, yang dianggap tabu oleh sebagian masyarakat, merupakan salah satu kelompok yang memiliki ragam bahasa slang. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode deskriptif kualitatif untuk menganalisis pembentukan kata slang penggemar BL menggunakan teori Tsujimura (2014) dan makna literal serta figuratif kosakata slang penggemar BL. Data dalam penelitian ini berasal dari ujaran <em>Virtual Youtuber</em> yang menggemari BL dan postingan akun khusus BL pada X (sebelumnya bernama Twitter). Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa slang penggemar BL dapat dikelompokan ke dalam 9 kelompok berdasarkan jenis pembentukannya, yaitu afiksasi, penggabungan, pemotongan, peminjaman bahasa asing, penggunaan <em>kigou</em> (simbol), penggunaan <em>goroawase</em>, pembentukan nomina dari <em>renyoukei</em> verba, penulisan dalam notasi <em>katakana</em>, dan penggunaan <em>kanji</em> <em>fu</em> (腐) dan 7 kelompok makna berdasarkan makna figuratifnya, yaitu makna sejenis akibat pemakaian <em>kanji</em> <em>fu</em> (腐), makna berkaitan dengan peran dalam BL, makna berkaitan dengan karakterisasi dalam BL, makna berkaitan dengan pemasangan (<em>coupling</em>) dalam BL, makna berkaitan dengan genre dalam BL, makna berkaitan dengan ungkapan khusus, dan makna berkaitan dengan preferensi mengenai BL.</p>2024-10-31T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 East Asian Reviewhttps://dev.journal.ugm.ac.id/v3/ear/article/view/16173Virtual Discontent: Japanese Netizen Reactions to the Indonesia-China High-Speed Rail Controversy on Youtube2024-11-20T07:37:06+07:00Moh Gandhi Amanullahmoh-g-a@fib.unair.ac.idPutri Elsyputri-e@fib.unair.ac.id<p>This study delved into the reactions of Japanese society, particularly netizens, to the Indonesia-China High-Speed Rail project, inaugurated in 2023, by analyzing content on Youtube. Through a qualitative approach and content analysis, the research applied symbolic interactionism as its conceptual framework. The dataset included 22 Youtube videos collected during October 2023, a pivotal time marked by the project's inauguration. This study revealed that, through a symbolic interactionism perspective, Japanese netizens form negative meanings of the Indonesia-China High Speed Rail (HSR) project based on interactions with symbols in Youtube content. Visual and verbal representations in videos and thumbnails contributed to these perceptions, with 20 out of 22 analyzed contents expressing criticism, sarcasm, or disappointment, portraying HSR as a symbol of failure or betrayal, rather than progress or achievement. In addition, discussions in the comments section, with an average of 390 comments per video, reinforced these negative interpretations. Phrases such as “betrayal” and visuals that negatively portray Indonesia emphasize a broader sense of national disillusionment, going beyond the technical aspects of the project and reflecting political as well as economic concerns.</p>2024-10-31T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 East Asian Reviewhttps://dev.journal.ugm.ac.id/v3/ear/article/view/14422Kajian Semantik Kognitif Verba Konsonan Tadayou2024-11-20T07:37:09+07:00Nabila Meisya Ardananabilameisya02@mail.ugm.ac.idTatang Haririnabilameisya02@mail.ugm.ac.id<p><em>The Japanese language has many words that have more than one meaning. One of these words is the consonant verb ‘tadayou’. This study used a qualitative research method that aimed to identify the classification of the meaning of the consonantal verb tadayou and its interlanguage relationship. The data were taken from the NINJAL-LWP for TWC corpus and then analyzed using cognitive semantic theory. This research found that the basic meaning of tadayou consonant verbs is hovering. Then, tadayou consonantal verbs have eight expanded meanings, namely 1) float, 2) wander, 3) emit (scent, etc.), 4) (setting) atmosphere, 5) agitated, 6) unstable, 7) flinch, and 8) feel (feeling). However, the meanings of “agitated”, “unstable”, and “flinch” found no place of relevance nowadays. Outside of these classifications, one new meaning was found in this study, namely “to permeate”. In addition, there was an exception that abstract objects can be used for the meaning of “levitate”. The structural metaphorical expansion of the meaning of the consonantal verb tadayou was “wandering”. The ontological metaphorical expansion of meanings was “emit (scent, etc.)” and “atmosphere” (setting). Lastly, the metonymical expansion of meaning was “to float”, “to feel (feeling)”, and “to permeate”.</em></p>2024-10-31T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 East Asian Reviewhttps://dev.journal.ugm.ac.id/v3/ear/article/view/11902Examining The Impact of Hustle Culture on South Korean Workers2024-11-20T07:38:29+07:00Ummul Hasanahummul.hasanah@ugm.ac.idNabilla Kusuma Vardhaninabilla.kusuma.v@ugm.ac.idFajarasih Luthfia Marthafajarasihluthfia@mail.ugm.ac.id<p>In recent years, the term hustle culture has often been heard among young workers. Through a hustle culture, a company's progress, which ultimately affects a country's progress, will be possibly achieved more quickly. However, criticism has been common that hustle culture interferes with the mental health of workers in a company because they are too overworking. South Korea has long been known as a country with workers carrying out a hustle culture. This culture can be seen in some of the depictions of Korean popular culture, such as in the Korean drama "Good Manager." The purpose of this research was to find out and reveal the hustle culture and its effects, both for companies and employees in a company in the Korean drama "Good Manager." The analysis was carried out using a qualitative descriptive method from the data contained in the Korean drama "Good Manager." The data were collected through a literature study from various references and observations. The results of this study are expected to be useful for Indonesian youth who work in companies to imitate and implement the hustle culture if it is seen as good. Hopefully, with this research, Korean culture enthusiasts will be better prepared for the challenges they face when they work in companies that adhere to Korean work culture. In addition, the public can better understand the dangers of a hustle culture and be able to maintain mental health from an unhealthy work culture.</p>2024-10-31T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 East Asian Review
