ABSTRACT

This article takes a look at the process of forming a place and creating a new value perspective in the middle novel “The Boy is Growing Up" of Chae Man-sik. And furthermore, he wanted to analyze how the novel deals with the liberating state and the new generation. This is because the novel's epic is devising a different way of ethics than the ideological reality. Just as the novel's title, "The Boy is Growing Up" implies a new generation of growth, the novel depicts how the boy's main body responds to the world's problems surrounding him. What's important is that the boy uses the logic of viewing and connecting, not the logic of division and division of the hierarchy required by society at the time. A national project to distinguish Joseon people/external Koreans/immigrants creates a hierarchical modern order by separating the core/ambient areas. This reflects the duality of the modern/fertile world system in which the subject can be defined only by the batter. For ‘JeonJaemin(diaspora)’, a boy who could be a native but not a native country, Joseon/Manchuria is considered as an unseparated group. Manchuria is reborn as a place to supplement the inside of a batter or an outside player. And the novel deepens this through the boy's journey to build a new place, accumulating concrete lives and experiences. Along the path of space, Young-ho, a boy, grows up, acquiring a new place in a strange and repressive place called Joseon. At this time, emotions are a link that makes the dichotomy and rigid ideology flow. It is the boy-man's emotional interaction with the people that makes Joseon a real and concrete place to live, away from the empty ideology of national nation, democracy. Emotion can be a social product that the system is giving to the individual, but at the same time emotion can be a way for the individual to respond to the system. The compassion that people at the station show to the boy is how the existence of Joseon Dynasty responds to ideology. Unlike compassion, which distinguishes the beneficiary from the recipient, it connects the entire Korean people and the Korean people as it begins from the premise that the suffering of others can be my pain. Pity, which is triggered by a sense of homogeneity, not a hierarchical one, has an important impact on the boy's life. It allows him to own both Joseon and Manchuria and belong to both. Shame, on the other hand, is a way of perpetuating ideology. To establish one's own ethics by accepting the eyes of a batter and gaining shame to look back on yourself. The boy who refers to the feelings of both JeonJaemin and hoteliers eventually creates the power to constantly modify himself. Therefore, the ending of a boy's life and speech cannot be defined as incomplete or incomplete. Because the work hopes for a world of majority and diversity, not central/peripheral hierarchical logic. The center of the world is not one, but many, and is meaningful because it always changes. A new ethics will be created when focusing on the course of action, not the outcome of action, and the meaning of the work will be considered in a more diverse way.
