If you are having difficulty finding a recent case study to examine, a good starting point would be to look at the topics in module 2 and pick one that you found interesting. For example, if you enjoyed looking at K-pop, you can engage with those readings and use more recent K-pop examples to see if those arguments can still be applied. Similarly, you can look at more recent McDonalds advertisements, Anime releases, video games etc. to support your argument.Marking criteria
