In the spirit of commemorating the end of the year (as well as the decade), the Korean Herald Tribune chose to conduct some research to determine who they felt were the year’s best cultural leaders. After some intensive studying, 30 people were chosen to be placed on the list.
These people were chosen based not only from the music industry, but through film as well. In addition, these people were selected based on how they affect Korean culture and society and how they are representing the country through the changes they make. They were then ranked according to the points they earned as a result of these standards, giving them the title of 2010’s Best Cultural Leaders.
The rankings are as follows:
1.) Lee Mikyung
2.) Lee Sooman
3.) Kang Hodong
