Prague: imagining the metropolis of romance

Original language description

This paper views Korean tourists in Prague through the lenses of urban anthropology and anthropology of tourism in order to map their image of the city of Prague. It aims to see whether and to what extent this image could be related to the portrayal of the city as a site of romance in the TV series "Lovers in Prague" and/or if particular locations or body techniques among Korean tourists would perpetuate to create a Korean-specific image of Prague; the two main groups of Koreans coming to Prague being young backpackers and newly-weds. In order to do this, a preliminary research through Naver keyword search has been carried out. The paper then discusses the elements of the city image created by the supply-side and the demand-side before moving to discussion on a possible future research on this topic.
