"This is the peak era of prosumers, the blockchain era. We are living in a metaverse where prosumers voluntarily re-create and expand content. The value of the original content is then maximized by its re-creation by these individuals, and within the metaverse such contents will become assets and further monetizable. So let us take a moment to imagine the day when cultural content becomes a form of currency. Will cultural content lead the prosumer's generation? Will it be accepted in a blockchain era in which the Creator Economy made by prosumers is most significant? These are important questions for the future of hallyu. I believe that this vision of the future is possible."
