영문 초록

  The purpose of this paper is to examine the kinds of novels through which the Koreans in Japan portray themselves and the significance which the novels carry. For this, sorted out were 30 novels of the ethnic Koreans" lives in Japan among numerous ones put in such ethnic magazines as 『Hanyang』, 『Samcheolli』and 『Cheonggu』. Then they were classified into three patterns, 16 works typical of each pattern were analyzed to infer the significance, and the study topics not quite dealt with in this paper were presented. It is summarized as follows:
  1. the pattern and significance of novels of the Koreans" lives in Japan
  (l) The first pattern is the novels that depict the hardships of the ethnic Koreans in Japan who live a floating life and their hope of settling down. These novels are in turn divided into the types of novels about the Koreans who drown their nostalgia and the types of novels about the Koreans who endlessly challenge themselves to survive in Japan. Wanderers ultimately desire to work hard and save enough money to go back home and settle down or to live an endless challenging life for survival in japan, which is a place far away from home. However, their desire never gets off the ground, and it rarely comes true.
  (2) The emigration to Japan accompanies the separation from a family. The ethnic Koreans in Japan dream of returning to their hometown and living as a host. Mostly such a dream just remained hard to fulfill. The dream, however, has continued on without ceasing until the second and third generation, and further, the fourth and fifth, though the intensity is different. Some novels depict the agony and longing of separated families and the reality of their unfulfilled dream of homecoming and reunion. Others depict the shared agony transcending the generation difference and the hope of reunion through overcoming the agony.
  (3) The orientation to be an "ethnic Korean in japan" is simply changeable according to the internal and external circumstances or times to which he/she is exposed. Taking this situation into consideration, the author categorized the reality of oppressed desire for belonging and stability and the agony of where to belong, and examined the pattern in which the themes develop in novels with a result that there are two types. Some works show a natural argument for national consciousness and its limits. Others depict ethnic Koreans" root chasing and self-awakening of ethnicity in japan.
  2. Future projects.
  (l) To study the works not analyzed in this paper, among the novels of the ethnic Koreans" lives that were put in the three magazines, particularly over 10 works in 『Samcheolli』.
  (2) To study the authors who contributed the novels of the ethnic Koreans" lives to 『Hanyang』, such as Kim Cheol-su, Kim Gyeong-sik, Jeong Cheol, Lee Sun-hak, Lee Sang-Jik.
  (3) To analyze in terms of an author the novelists who contributed more than two works of the ethnic Koreans" lives to 『Hanyang』 and 『Samcheolli』, such as Kim Cheol-su, Kim Gyeong-sik, Kim Hak-yeong, Kim Seck-beom, Kim Tae-saeng, Jeong Seung-bak, Kim Dal-su, Won Su-il, so that the study can be deeper and wider.
  (4) To examine and analyze the correlation between the character of each of the magazines, such as 『Hanyang』, 『Samcheolli』, 『Cheonggu』, and the novels put in them in order to further the significance.
