AB - Cross Penetration of Empire and Colony in Chunhyangjeonby Jang HyukjuKim, Gae JaThis article considers Chunhyanjeon written in Japanese by Jang Hyukju in1938. His Chunhyangjeon was presented from among the collusion and crackof 'things Japanese' and 'things Chosun' discussed in Japanese literary world inthe 1930's. This article analyzed the writing method and the meaning of the text.
Jang Hyukju(張赫宙, 1905∼1997) became known to Japanese literary worldby the second grade nomination of the prize contest of the magazine Kaizo in1932. Since then, he worked actively in the Japanese literary world by writingnovels in Japanese and introducing the literature of Chosun. Thanks to his activity,the literature of Chosun drew attraction from the Japanese, which can be called'boom'. Jang Hyukju was in the middle of this boom. So, his text presented thecollusion and crack of empire and colony. We can make sure this issue fromhis play Chunhyangjeon.
When he presented Chunhyangjeon, Jang Hyukju mentioned his purpose ofwriting. He intended to write modern play in new literary style. Chunhyangjeonwas surely the material of things traditional Chosun, which was correspondedto the demand of Japanese literary world. Through the story of Chunhyangjeon,however, he formed the modern text style. He wrote in standard Japanese language,and described things from the perspective style which is often used in modernnovel. And he renewed the character characteristically and arranged the structureof the play. His writing style showed clear distinction in the comparison toChunhyangjeon written by You Chijin which was presented in Korean language2 years earlier than Jang Hyukuju's.
The text Chunhyangjeon written in Japanese by Jang Hyukju reflected specificityas a district of Japan. But on the other hand, a new literary method of modernrealism was tried. Chunhyangjeon written by Jang Hyukju shows the crosspenetration of empire and colony. And in his Japanese-language literature, theliterature of Chosun is coexisting and playing variation.
