AB - This article aims to study the translation of Song of Ariran published in the United States in 1941. This biography of Kim San, a Korean independent movement fighter, was first introduced and translated, though partly, through a monthly magazine titled Shinchunji by the Seoulshinmunsa company in 1946. Since the executives and the editors of the company consisted of nationalistic, moderate political activists who envisioned an anti-imperial, anti-feudal and sovereign nation as their new nation, it was inevitable that, to some extent, the translation mirrored the political objectives of the translating agents. The translation of Song of Ariran, therefore, is expected to show how this translation was used to promote the political and nationalistic narratives in the midst of intense political competition between diverse political factions of taking the initiative in the national-building process in the Liberation Period. Drawing on Mona Baker’s socio-narrative approach, the analysis of the translation aims to explore to what extent the policies and political orientation of the translating institution contributed to the framing of nationalistic narratives. More specifically, it intends to show how the source text was manipulated in the target texts inclusive of paratexts, and how the narrative framing strategies and outcomes corresponded with the political cause of the moderate activists, i.e. the establishment of a united sovereign nation free from the intervention of the US and the USSR.
