Abstract

This study looks at the process of place-of-memory making regarding the SewolFerry disaster through the concept of ‘the territorialization of memory.’ Based onarchival analyses, in-depth interviews, and site visits, the research investigates theformation process of memory classes in Danwon High School, Gwanghwamun Plaza,and a place of memory in Jeju. It focuses on the three aspects of the territorializationof memory, including occupancy of materialized conversion of memory, actors’ occupancyand conflicts, and the expansion of territory through dark tourism. The resultsof this study are as follows. First, the memory became territorialized through thematerials victim students used in their daily lives. Main actors such as recordingactivists and victims’ parents engaged in a discourse competition with other parentson the right to study. As a result of the conflict, the memory becamede-territorialized. Second, the Gwanghwamun Plaza represents a case of politicalterritorialization of memory through actors’ physical occupancy. Victims’ parentsand supportive citizens territorialized the memory by occupying the public space. Conservative organization members and the police sent by the national governmentattempted to dissolve the occupancy, and the Seoul government supportedthe occupancy by permitting the victims’ parents and citizens to do it. Third, thememory became re-territorialized by leaving the Korean peninsula for an alternativeplace, Jeju. The re-territorialization of memory was dependent on a network of culturalmigrants, victims of national disasters, and tourists. This research contributesto the understanding of the spatial politics of memory and suggests policy implicationson memory places associated with the Sewol Ferry accident.
