AB - Identity in philosophy is associated with the concept of “oneness.” Oneness is not ‘totally identical’ but ‘the same in some respects,’ and therefore ‘includes differentiation of others and is temporary.’ On the premise of this, discussions on the identity of Jeju were divided into Tamra, Jeju, and the present time, and each of them was replaced with a philosophical theme of lost memories, the gaze of the marginal man, and the desire of modern people. It is the starting point of this study that these three topics are still simultaneously being laid synchronically, diachronically, and presently. First of all, Tamra’s millennial identity is closely linked to its geopolitical position as an ancient maritime island state. In this regard, Tamra’s millennial memory secures geopolitical oneness with Taiwan or Okinawa rather than ancient Korea. Next, Jeju’s millennial identity is closely linked to the regional and psychological boundaries of the Korean border areas. Considering this point, Jeju’s millennial gaze was divided into the place of exile of the isolated island when directed into national order and utopia when directed outward. Finally, the identity of Jeju in reality is closely linked to the realization of the desire surrounding ‘modern,’ which leads to a memory struggle. The identity of Jeju should start from the fact that its independence and attachment as an island state are being involved. Since the advent of the Tamra Kingdom in East Asian history, this point has continued to work as a principle of oneness in the process of amalgamation or establishing a modern national state. Consequently, the identity of Jeju can be found in that it has served as a venue for action to recreate the time and place of the old future as the “Boundary Beyond the Boundary of Korea” with the sea boundary.
