    This dissertation investigates the dynamics of cohesion within the US–South Korea alliance, a long-lasting but asymmetric defense partnership, and aims to answer the question: What factors drive changes in the alliance’s cohesion? While enduring alliances are often viewed as cohesive, this study demonstrates that changes in cohesion can occur even within long-lasting alliances, necessitating an examination of cohesion dynamics separate from alliance durability.Two main arguments are presented. First, changes in the US–South Korea alliance’s cohesion were influenced by the interplay of international and domestic political-economic factors. The study argues that, in some cases, domestic constraints may outweigh international factors like shared threats and strategic interests in shaping the alliance cohesion. Second, in asymmetric alliances, the strategic interests and political-economic situation of the major power (the US) had a more significant impact on the alliance cohesion than the minor power (South Korea). Furthermore, the strategic interests and political-economic situation of the US, a major power, influenced not only its alliance policy but also the alliance policy of South Korea, a minor power closely monitoring the US situation. An in-depth historical case study of the US–South Korea alliance during the 1960s and 1970s is conducted, a salient period characterized by significant changes in the alliance’s cohesion. I select this period because it effectively demonstrates the inadequacy of existing literature focusing on threats and interests and validates the main arguments of this study. The study analyzes how evolving threat perceptions, strategic interests, and domestic political-economic developments contributed to changes in the alliance cohesion. It offers valuable insights into the driving forces behind these changes and the complex interplay among them, ultimately enriching our understanding of alliance dynamics. This study contributes to the existing research on the US–South Korea alliance and holds potential for further expansion into a general theory of alliance cohesion in asymmetric contexts.

    The TV series Jiok (Yŏn Sang-ho, KR 2021-), internationally known as Hellbound, is a recent and highly successful series that has been available on the streaming platform Netflix since November 2021. It is usually described as a "dark mystery thriller" or "dark fantasy film", which points to the general tone but also to its constant interplay with the "mysterious". The plot revolves around the appearance of monstrous creatures who suddenly arrive out of nowhere and kill people in a most brutal and bloody way. All of those who are killed in this heinous manner have received a warning beforehand, delivered by "angels" foretelling their fate and their imminent death and introducing crucial topics such as "guilt" and "sin" as a reason for the whole procedure. The article introduces major topics of this series and focusses on the prominent role of a new religious movement that is intimately linked to major trajectories of the plot.
