열풍을 불러일으킨 팟캐스트 방송 <나는꼼수다>를 대상으로, <나는꼼수다> 열풍 현상이 일상의 층위로 끌어내린 한국 민주주의 위기의 국면과 민주주의 실현을 위한 새로운 사유 가능성을 짚어보고자 했다. 그간 <나는꼼수다>에 대한 논의가 뉴미디어 테크놀로지의 혁신과 연동한 미디어 영역의 확장 차원에서 다루어졌음을 비판적으로 검토하고 <나는꼼수다>가 보여준 문화적 감염력에 대한 분석에 집중해보고자 했다. 언어형식의 틀 깨기가 불러온 효과를 평가하고 ‘잡담/소음’의 활용이 갖는 의미를 검토하면서, 이로부터 적대적선이 뚜렷하지 않는 시대의 비판전략의 가능성을 가늠해 보았다. <나는꼼수다>가 보여주는 전복적 정치성의 의미를 평가하면서도, <나는꼼수다> 열풍이 순식간에 가라앉은 사태를 통해 풍자적 유머의 제한성을 확인할 수 있었다. <나는꼼수다>의 열풍과 급격한 냉각은 비평적 언어의 공동화 현상이 부른 사태로서 이해되어야 한다.

세월호 참사는 대부분의 사람들에게는 분명히 영상 상의 사건이었다. 따라서 참사와 관련된 영상과 그것이 유통되는 방식이야말로 우리가 이를 지각하고 인식하는 태도와 직결된다. 특히 희생 학생들이 직접 찍은 휴대폰 영상들에 주목하여, ‘18살의 꿈, 단원고 2학년 3반’(KBS)과 ‘세월호 침몰의 진실’(일본 후지 TV), 두 편의 다큐멘터리를 분석하였다. 상이한 서사구조와 영상구성요소들을 지닌 두 다큐멘터리에서 휴대폰 영상들이 어떻게 차별적으로 활용되고 있는지를 살펴보았다. KBS 다큐는 참사 당시를 찍은 영상과 아울러 참사 이전 학생들이 찍은 일상적인 영상들을 상당수 삽입했다. 참사 이전 학생들의 삶과 꿈을 중심 근거로 하여 그들의 못다한 꿈을 이루어주는 서사구조를 취하고 있기 때문에, 참사 당시의 영상들이 담고 있는 특별한 죽음의 성질에 대한 문제의식은 상대적으로 약화되는 경향을 보였다. 희생 학생들을 온전히 애도할 수 있는 방법은 오히려 그들의 인생의 공백, 즉 결코 완결된 다큐멘터리가 되지 못할 다큐멘트들을 그대로 두고 끊임없이 질문하는 일일 것이다. 후지 TV 다큐는 다양한 영상구성요소들을 활용함으로써 동일한 상황을 여러 형식과 각도로 반복하고 재구성하여, 사고 당시의 전후 과정을 전면적이고 종합적으로 규명하였다. 다소 파편적인 느낌을 주던 휴대폰 영상들은 적극적으로 재구성된 맥락 속에서 생생한 현실성을 획득하고, 재연 장면과 결합되어 진실성과 진정성을 증명해 주는 구체적인 근거 자료로 사용되었다. 또한 학생들을 ‘착한 희생자 서사’의 수동적인 대상이 아닌 적극적인 주체이자 행위자로 그려냈다. 궁극적으로 학생들이 남긴 영상들을 제대로 보기 위한 올바른 형식과 관점을 구축하는 일이 그들을 기억하는 최선의 방법일 것이다.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Jajangmyeon motif in the Korea public narrative by focusing on the movie <Almost Che>. This paper especially focused on the way to enjoy 1980s' Korea culture by jajangmyeon. Mr. Kang who delivers Chinese food with a Steel Container speaks nonsense words continuously to Miss Seo who is a female college student. And Miss Seo also speaks nonsense words continuously to Mr. Kang. Their linguistic playfulness is comic caricatures that they can't communicate each other. But their linguistic playfulness shows the power of colloquial language transcending the limits of logical thoughts as the final outcome. Paradoxically, they proved the possibility of communication by their linguistic playfulness. To conclude, <Almost Che> shows the public power that impossibility changes into possibility by Mr. Kang who loves Miss Seo. In the movie, <Almost Che> recalled the strike affair with occupying the American Culture Center in 1985. And <Almost Che> fairly succeeded restoring 1980s' Korean society that has been forgotten by the public now. It revealed the Korean political situation and the anti-American sentiment of Korean university students in 1980s. Although they have been forgotten fast, they are still the important past history.

Abstract
Punch, a family melodrama, was released in 2011 and achieved a better-than- expectations success at the box office. It is a recent phenomenon that a family melodrama has ranked high in the box office record. This paper aims to probe for the meaning of Punch in the light of the rise of the family melodrama in Korea’s film industry. Punch can be said to make an important turning point in terms of film industry. In this paper I search for genre and social meanings of the phenomenon that family melodrama has become a full-scale hit genre. Also will be discussed what the lower class subject and the multiculturalism presented in the film mean to the audience and how the nostalgia factor is utilized for commercial success. Having been through the times of the post-IMF system, neo-liberalism and the neo-conservative administrations, we have witnessed the box office success of family films, nostalgia films and films featuring heroes from lower class, which had not been well fit for Korean film industry’s code of commercial success before 2000. Nowadays the Korean society produces and circulates not just films but general mass cultural products with reactionary and nostalgic features. This paper traces the origin of the tendency of Korean films since Punch, a 2011 hit film, through the over-10million- viewer films in 2015. I will analyze Punch critically and try to understand how the masses express their ontological anxiety as social beings in their enthusiasm for certain films.

Abstract
Lyrics of popular songs convey the meanings and symbols that are important in that era because they are produced by the collective efforts of song writers, consumers, critics and distributors. This paper analyzes the semantic structure among keywords contained in popular song lyrics. Three hundred popular songs are compiled, one hundred each from 60’s, 80’s and 2000’s for social network analysis of keywords. Major findings are the following. 1) the most central keyword has always been ‘love’ regardless of the period the song was written. 2) During 60’s, natural phenomena such as rain, mist or lakes appeared frequently. Yet they disappear almost completely and replaced by English words like ‘nobody’ or ‘baby’ from 80’s. 3) The number of unique words increases rapidly over time and the mode of expressions became diverse. 4) The whole network structure changes from a radial type to a chain type indicating that the relative centrality of ‘love’ is weakened, although they the most important in each period. 5) Sentiments of longing for hometown disappears gradually, and scenes related with ‘drinking liquor’ become frequent.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the aspect of time transcendence, its implicit emotional motive and symbolic meaning from recently released Hollywood SF movie narrative. Narrative access to virtual time or space through a scientific fiction has stimulated an expectation and belief about the potential possibility of human being that was not yet implemented. Science fiction, which has played a pivotal role as a spearhead with establishing a full-scale genealogy from 19th century, deeply inspires many scientists with an innovative hypothesis, metaphors, and the theories to support the hypothesis. However, the reason that this genre could cause a huge social sensation of the time is due to a precise analysis on problems facing the era, and an insight enabled it. Time transcendence in narrative was no exception. Time transcendence as a theme or partial motif, which was borrowed in many works already and built its frame, has been repeated many variations in its history and meaning. Particularly, if 『The Time Machine』 of Herbert George Wells had a classic role in time transcendence genre with building a dystopian world-view on the future landscape and criticizing a moral hazard and an expansion of the capital accelerated by the Industrial Revolution in the end of 19th century, Hollywood has released steadily SF movies related to time transcendence starting from 1960s, and leads a time transcendence narrative genre in the 21st century with the superior imaging technology and time-based discourse. For example, a series of works released since 2010, like Source Code」(2011), 「Edge of Tomorrow」(2014) and 「Interstellar」(2014), have inherited the spirit of times and will diagnose the upcoming future with different scientific motifs & alternatives, along with self-reflection.

근대를 관통하는 핵심. 그것은 바로 ‘몸’, 즉 인간의 신체를 근대적으로 재편하고자 하는 노력들이다. 본고는 이러한 ‘몸’담론 위에서 김남천의 『대하』를 새롭게 읽어내고자 한다. 그 중심에는 운동회가 있다. 주인공 형걸의 근대성은 그의 신체를 통해 표출되며, 운동회는 근대적 볼거리로서 신체훈련과 경쟁을 보여주는 장소로 기능했다. 이러한 운동회는 근대적 표상으로서 신체에 대한 인식적 변화를 직접적으로 견인한다. 동시에 놀이의 근대적 재편을 주도하고 전시하는 효과까지 내포한다는 점에서 더욱 주목해야만 한다. 이에 본고는 운동회라는 근대적 제도를 분석하고, 이것이 『대하』의 인물 형상화에 끼친 영향과 기능을 고찰하고자 한다. 이를 통해 김남천의 『대하』는 사색하는 신체에서 운동하는 신체로의 전환을 실감하게 해주는 텍스트로서 새롭게 분석될 수 있다.

Abstract
<Deceived by Love, Despaired by Money>(1936) and <The Power of Mother> (1937) are the most successful pop drama in the late 1930’s in colonized Joseon. These works are called kisaeng–domestic dramas(妓生-家庭劇) dealing with problematic situation after kisaeng’s marriage. The paper is to show those characteristics and those places in the history of popular arts, comparing with ‘Shinpa domestic dramas’(新派-家庭劇) in 1910’s and ‘tragic love dramas at the red light district’(花柳悲戀劇) in 1920’s-1930’s. The narrative of kisaeng–domestic dramas following the style of melodramatic representation, reveals excessive rhetoric, caused by contradictory situation of depressed ‘truth’ and desire to express. In the dramas, kisaengs are the good struggling to maintain chastity and the persons holding the kisaeng down are the bad. The dramas focus on traditional individual moral such as chastity in women and love for family in men, compared to ‘Shinpa-domestic dramas’ focusing on social moral such as fidelity and empathy. The dramas highlight newly optimistic emotion such as pride and hope, compared to ‘tragic love dramas at the red light district’ focusing on pessimistic emotion such as grief. In kisaeng–domestic dramas, the bond daughter-in-law between father-in-law represents the patriarch conspired by the colonial policy of Japan. In this respect, The kisaeng-domestic dramas as melodrama is not only the myth of forces upholding patriarchal ideologies but also the moral rhetoric revealing the colonization strategy of Japan.
