AB - The purpose of this study is to reveal the process of forming empathy, an ethical sensibility, through reading novels about North Korean defectors in the field of liberal arts education. The formation of empathy is a necessary virtue for university students in the world, who are disintegrating into fragmented individuals, to grow into community citizens. This paper defines the moment when empathy is occured as the time to encounter the ‘other’. Therefore, in this paper, we have to develop a sense of empathy in order to trigger an emotion for the ‘other’, and have a process look at where we get this sensitivity, and how we reproduce it in literature. This experience completes the function of social and ethical transformation of the novel. In particular, this paper recently introduced the ‘other’ as a defector who exists as an insider in our society but is completely alienated as an outsider. And based on Levinas' philosophical perception of ‘friendship with naked face,’ we explained from a literary point of view how we obtained ‘static’ or ‘moral sensibility’. We believe that we can learn many experiences for understanding the world, empathy and communication in reading the text of novels. And this reading education could give important roles and significance to the goal of university education, whose purpose is to enhance the sensitivity of the whole personality.
