AB - This study aims not only to grasp the post-economic difficulty of reformation of marketization and its consequent phase of governing discourse, but also to inquire into its representative characteristics. For the purpose of this study, first of all, the concepts and theories of mercantilism, corporatism and patrimonialism are respectively introduced to define national strategy and ruling system of North Korea. Furthermore, considering that the characteristics of North Korea’s national strategy and ruling system have been transformed, according to the times, from corporatist mercantilism into patrimonialist mercantilism, this study will inquire about the composition of content and form of the governing discourse of “anti-capitalism” accordingly. The text as a subject of analysis corresponds to materials of internal lecture script of North Korea, in which the metaphor of capitalism as a “disease” is mainly detected. In conclusion, the “metaphor of disease” is designed to accumulate fear and hatred of capitalism, in addition, this metaphor reveals that it is a discourse strategy for preventing North Korea’s change from proceeding toward internal alteration.
