AB - This study examines the meanings of disaster experience spaces in Yoon Go-eun’s narratives The Travelers of the Night and Aboard the Pirate Edition. The analysis begins from the premise that existential orientation within such spaces is intertwined with the flow of affect among different beings.
Importantly, Yoon’s narratives do not primarily attend to natural disasters in their spontaneous occurrence. Rather, the disasters she depicts emerge as structurally reproduced phenomena under the logic of capital and the market, in which risks are disproportionately transferred to vulnerable subjects.
What deserves closer attention, however, is that disaster experience spaces in these works do not remain mere sites of damage. Instead, they are reconfigured as affective spaces where encounters and relations among beings generate the potential for communal sensibilities. Through this reconfiguration, Yoon highlights how affect mediates the passage from individual experience to shared modes of being.
Her narrative response thus consists in refusing to exclude the suffering of others, recognizing the contradictions of the capitalist system, and exploring possibilities for life beyond disaster spaces.
Ultimately, affect in these narratives does not remain confined to individual interiority but is activated as an affect of solidarity, serving as the force that enables the securing of community life in the aftermath of disaster.
