AB - In Self-Expressive webtoon, main character is regarded as real author through its realistic representation of daily life and private issues. This can lead to ego-centric narrative world which emphasizes on individual-self and excludes social relations around the ego.
This study looks into the webtoon compared to tradition of Korean literary culture. In Korea, Macro history and nationalism constituted the dominant discourse in narrative- culture. In contrast, webtoon depicts personal stories which is free from major ideologies and social pressure. For that reason, the Self-Representative webtoon embodies thematic idea of unique individuality and personalism, creating a phenomenal trend which is unparalleled in Korean cartoon history. Therefore, Webtoon is new media which is distinct from pre-existing cartoon, and its narrativity and characteristic has to be analyzed from different point of view.
