AB - This essay is a study of Yi Geugno(1893~1978). Yi Geungno was a scholar of the Korean language who took part in the Joseon language movement, primarily through his activity in the Joseon Language Society. He also travelled around the world from 1911 to 1929. He participated in the anti-Japanese independence movement in China, received a doctoral degree in economics in Germany, and participated in the Joseon language movement in colonial Korea. He played a central role in assessing and establishing an orthography and standard dialect for the Joseon language, systematizing its notation of foreign loanwords, and compiling a standard dictionary of the Joseon language. After 1948 he contributed to the formation of North Korean language policy while living in North Korea. He was essentially forgotten in South Korea until the 2019 publication of the The Complete Works of Yi Geungno.
This essay focuses on Yi Geungno’s aim of standardizing the Joseon language through the Joseon language movement. His concept of standardization formed during his travels of what Eric Hobsbawm refers to as the ‘standardized world,’ during which he experienced various recording media. In the course of accruing this experience with recording media―such as transcription, mimeographs, typewriters, telegrams, movable type, printers, and audio recording―Yi Geungno formulated his ideas on the standardization of the Joseon language. The terms movement, media, and standardization can represent Yi Geungno’s life and thought and reveal the complex historical relationship of modernity and colonialism.
