Riassunto:The aim of this article is to analyze the impact of South Korean film art on slum tourism in South Korea in the 21st century. The study hypothesized that the growing popularity of Korean culture contributes to the increased interest in poor districts that do not appear on the map of typical tourist attractions of this country. The analysis is based on two South Korean productions that have recently gained immense popularity around the world ("Squid Game", "Parasite") and scientific publications on slum tourism. What's more, reviews of productions, articles and internet entries as well as statistical data will also be taken into account. Activities undertaken by the Korean government for the development of tourism will also be analysed. The article will answer the research questions: whether the analyzed productions have an impact on the increased interest in slum tourism in South Korea, what are the effects of its increased popularity and what is the position of the Korean government on this matter. The first part of the article will focus on explaining the concept of slum tourism and presenting the analyzed productions. In the second part, an analysis of various sources will be carried out, the aim of which is to examine the impact of South Korean film art on the phenomenon of slum tourism. Conclusions will be presented in the last part of the article.
