This study was planned to overcome theoretical abstractness about foreign migrants’ identity and to clarify the aspects of discourse about the “other” that are internalized within us and about the gender identity of foreign migrants, treating them and us in the context of inter-subjectivity. For this purpose, methodology of cultural hermeneutics and standpoint theory have been cited. That is, we intend to examine “how foreign migrants exist within us” through analyzing how foreign migrants are shown in “representative media” (TV documentary programs and modern novels). First, through the method of standpoint theory, we examine the possibility of interpreting the lives and cultures of marriage-migrant women using methods to reveal facts and to illuminate how reality is formed into image through mass media representation. In addition, by focusing on migrant-laborer novels, we examine the aspects of representing the other with a focus on viewpoint, narrator, narrative, and relationships among characters represented. Also, by focusing on monologues by mixed-blood children, the process by which they form their multicultural identity is examined, as are aspects of narrative strategies that internalize idealized family ideology. Thus, the process of making discourse about the “other” within us, which characterizes the representation of foreign migrants, is deeply analyzed and interpreted in the extended discussion of gender studies in this paper. Also, the foreign migrant as another “subject” within ourselves is discussed from the perspectives of ethics and humanities.
