Korean wave has became a current booming popular culture; reaching all continents of the world. This phenomenon is the result of cooperation from various actors, namely state and non-state actors. This paper aims to determine the role of the South Korean government in the accomplishments achieved by the Korean wave to date, by studying the literature that focuses on the Korean wave success. This paper concludes that the South Korean government acts as a stimulator, regulator and facility provider for the cultural industry to develop. While the success of the Korean wave in penetrating the world market is the result of the formulation of strategies and promotions conducted by non-state actors involved in the process of producing the Korean wave.
Diplomasi publik merupakan instrumen pencapaian kepentingan negara yang populer digunakan, dimana Republic of Korea merupakan salah satu contoh negara yang menggunakan diplomasi publik dengan Korean wave menjadi salah satu medianya. Diplomasi publik Korean wave meraih kesuksesannya di Indonesia secara umum dan kota Padang secara khusus. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan pencapaian kepentingan negara melalui pelaksanaan diplomasi publik yang melibatkan banyak aktor swasta/private. Penulis menggunakan metode survei ke sepuluh universitas yang ada di kota Padang untuk mengetahui pencapaian kepentingan negara ini di kota Padang. Tulisan ini menemukan bahwa walaupun diplomasi publik ini berhasil dalam meningkatkan popularitas Republic of Korea, tetapi kepentingan yang ingin dicapai seperti tersosialisasikannya kebijakan pemerintah dan penciptaan image RoK yang cinta damai dan attractive belum berhasil tercapai sepenuhnya, karena ketertarikan kepada budaya populer yang ditawarkan ternyata tidak berhasil untuk menarik pemuda kota Padang untuk lebih lanjut mempelajari kebijakan-kebijakan pemerintah dan membangun image yang diinginkan oleh pemerintah.

<p>International activities of local governments, also known in the literature as paradiplomacy, have significantly increased in the recent years. In Indonesia, local governments are allowed to conduct international relations or city diplomacy in supporting of central government. In doing so, multiple international agreements have been signed by Indonesian local governments, mostly establishing sister city relations. The most active actors on the international stage are big cities, such as Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and Bandung, all situated in Java. This research aims to explore challenges faced by small city, in this case city of Padang in conducting city diplomacy. The authors interviewed public officers in city of Padang and collected secondary data on the topic based on literature study. this article argues that small city has challenges that are not faced by big cities. The study found that small city cannot conduct city diplomacy as well as big cities due to the following factors: lack of awareness of city diplomacy, small number of staff with sufficient knowledge about international relations, and lack of information and idea about the implementation of sister city MoU or action plan and complex bureaucracy procedure in conducting an agreement which potentially less motivate staff in doing paradiplomacy. This article concludes that city of Padang is still working to obtain many agreements in term of sister city while creating many action plans to effectively the agreements.</p>
