Article body:

 * 1) The 21st century: With the development of technology and various forms of entertainment in the 21st century, feminist art has gradually penetrated into various fields. The development in music is particularly notable. In terms of Hip-Hop music, many hip-hop songs promote the art of feminism. Taking South Korea as an example, many female hip-hop singers will openly produce hip-hop songs about feminism to speak out for some unequal gender issues in society . For example, the Korean female rapper BIBI released a song called "Animal Farm" this year, which expresses women's resistance to gender discrimination against women in a patriarchal society and the issue of male coagulation by borrowing the classic footage from "Kill Bill". 1. Other works such as girl group (G)I-dle's newly released song "Nxde"; There is a line in the song "We born nude" that expresses disgust for the colored glasses that men add to women. People are born naked, so nude does not represent the meaning of pornography, all meanings are artificially added. If you think of porn when you mention nude, it can only mean that it is a dirty personal mind. This song redefines the word "Nude" to express women's courage to be themselves and not be bound by the stereotypes imposed on women in the world. There is a line in the song "We born nude" that expresses disgust for the colored glasses that men add to women. People are born naked, so nude does not represent the meaning of pornography, all meanings are artificially added. If you think of porn when you mention nude, it can only mean that it is a dirty personal mind. The comments posted by some male netizens after the song was released also confirmed the idea of the song. They reacted greatly to the topic of nude, but they were disappointed after seeing the content of the MV. The reason for this is self-evident.
 * 2) Also a series of k-drama films about feminism. Such as the 2019 Korean movie, Kim Ji-young: Born 1982. The film is based on the novel of the same name. It tells the story of a woman named Kim Ji-young who suffered from postpartum depression due to some words and deeds of mother in low after pregnancy and childbirth. Her husband and his family suddenly woke up and helped Kim Ji-young find herself. In the film, it is revealed that both passers-by and family members are prejudiced against Kim Ji-young's identity as a housewife. When Kim Ji-young was playing outside with her children, a male passerby who was an office worker said that housewife was the easiest occupation. You have money to spend without doing anything. But in other shots, the hardships of the housewife profession are all revealed. Kim Ji-young wanted to return to the workplace to continue her work after giving birth, but the suppression of people around her and the stereotype of women forced her to give up this idea. This is a real film that exposes the various discriminations women face in society. Before the film was released, it was boycotted by a large group of men, who refused to accept the reality and refused to admit the real situation of women. But the film still defied the odds, showing the world what women were in. In Muraro The Symbolic of the Mother she mentions that "we need to 'will have authority with the mother in order to experience it again as a symbolic principle'" that is, women are to change the entire structure of human existing social relations; to some extent, which requires women to place themselves under the authority, guidance, and guardianship of senior women who are the mother figures who serve them, instead of mothers. Muraro's point of view is reflected in the film Kim ji-young: Born1982 Come out. Whether it is Kim Ji-young's mother or mother-in-law, she guides Kim Ji-young as a so-called senior woman. Not only South Korea, but some recent Chinese dramas also show a feminist side. The TV series called New Life Begins, which tells about machinations and love in an overhead background, is also interspersed with women who bravely resist the unreasonable system, fight for their legal rights, and help and live with each other between women. Feminism spreads in this way, and this is the development of feminist art. It is a further development of feminist art that the majority of women can accept feminism and widely publicize it through this approachable and easier-to-understand way.
