Some people think that the government is wasting money on the arts and that this money could be better spent elsewhere.
To what extent do you agree with this view?
The arts have been an increasingly less intended area from the government’s financial support. A fair number of the populations in certain countries consider that it would be better to use expenditure on the arts in other areas, such as social welfare, education, environment. This essay will argue why continuous support in the art industry is imperative.
Many people have been considered the art field irrelevant to them. However, Korea has been already coexisting with the arts and enjoying the enormous economic effects of it in the form of ‘K-Culture.’ Not to mention the profit that Korea has earned from Director Bong Joon-ho’s film, Parasite, the ripple effect it has brought can be said as too large to ignore. One of the prominent examples would be the instant noodle craze to sweep the country due to the scene of the main character eating instant noodles in Parasite. In fact, if people had known that Bong Joon-ho become the guru in the art field, they would have invested in him or talent who could be the next director Bong at all costs.
Besides, through the development of various technologies, the art industry has not only completely melted into our daily lives, but these have also been providing the most accessible form of leisure and hobbies. In the current situation, it becomes challenging for people to go outside in their free time, so that people tend to stay inside more extended, which brought the result of spending more time and money on web novels and webtoons, the new types of art that are common these days, as to their leisure activities.
Overall, the profits that a nation can earn from the development of the arts are endless, and I believe that people who are against funding the art industry have not discerned the economic and social value of the arts; they should show a shift in attitudes toward it.
