Abstract
The widespread influence of the Korean Wave in Indonesia has encouraged many local skincare brands to utilize it as a marketing strategy, one of which is by selecting Korean artists as brand ambassadors. This strategy has created new perspectives in interpreting local brand identity amid the dominance of Korean popular culture. This study aims to examine audience interpretations regarding the selection of Korean artists as brand ambassadors for the local skincare brand Azarine on the Instagram account @azarinecosmeticofficial during the period of September 2025. This research employs Stuart Hall’s audience reception theory, with the encoding–decoding model as the main analytical framework. This theory explains that audiences occupy three positions in interpreting media messages: the dominant-hegemonic position, the negotiated position, and the oppositional position. The research method used is Stuart Hall’s reception analysis within a critical paradigm. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with eight informants selected using purposive sampling, representing diverse backgrounds, ages, genders, and levels of interest in Korean culture. The findings indicate that audience interpretations are divided into three reception positions: dominant, negotiated, and oppositional. In the dominant position, audiences perceive the selection of Korean artists as a modern strategy that strengthens the brand’s global image and visual appeal. The negotiated position reflects acceptance accompanied by a critical stance toward the representation of local identity. Meanwhil e, the oppositional position views the dominance of Korean aesthetics as potentially weakening the representation of Indonesian beauty and local values. These findings emphasize that audiences play an active role in interpreting marketing messages and highlight the importance of balancing global strategies with the reinforcement of local identity.
