AB - This paper aims to restore the path of children’s literature history that Yoon Seok-Jung had taken to an intact state, by discovering and considering his works published in Chosun Ilbo during Japanese occupation. Yoon Seok-Jung had published nearly 70 works, including children’s songs(poems), children’s stories and scores published in Chosun Ilbo for 13 years from August 1927 to August 1940.
Children’s songs published by Yoon Seok-Jung in Chosun Ilbo changed from fixed forms of 7.5 syllables to free verses before and after 1933. His children’s songs are mostly about descriptions of nature, family’s weary life and longing, compassion and consolation for objects, humor, difficulties in life when the country was lost and a will to overcome, ordinary lives and plays of children. Especially, ‘Aegidongyo’ that he published in the “Woorichaji” section in 1933 is characterized by simple contents and illustrations considering literacy of young children, and consists of songs with pictures.
Starting 1933, Yoon Seok-Jung worked as a children’s story (children’s song) narrator for a ‘children’s program’ produced by Gyeongseong Broadcasting Station. Prior to broadcasting, he presented the openings of children’s stories to the newspaper for stimulating curiosity of young listeners and encouraging them to join. Moreover, he released ‘Aegidonghwa’ targeting young children like Aegidongyo. Aegidonghwa is characterized by brief stories and illustrations for young children, who lack literacy. Aegidonghwa is mostly based on instructive contents like obedience, wisdom and modesty, and feelings of warmth about childhood.
The exchange with musicians was a crucial background factor for Yoon Seok-Jung to grow as a children’s song writer. Yoon Geuk- Young, Jeong Sun-Cheol and Park Tae-Won set children’s songs that Yoon Seok-Jung created as a juvenile literary writer to music, and this was a trigger for a broad promotion of his presence among the public. In addition to scores of general children’s songs, Yoon Seok-Jung created kindergarten songs and play songs for kinder- garteners to sing with dance routines. He also released folk songs to get over the pathetic reality of Joseon and letters about young children’s wishes to tell their others.
