Seoul Space Experiences and Modern Subjects Composition in the 1970s -With Focus on Jo Seon-jak's Miss Yang's Adventure -

초록

This thesis was written to grasp Seoul space in the 1970s through JoSeon-jak's full-length novel Miss Yang's Adventure (1975) from thesubjects' compositional aspect. Miss Yang's Adventure is the work in which Seoul city space in the1970s is embodied with place names written accurately. Jo Seon-jak, theauthor of this work, was of the group of writers such as Choi In-ho, SongYeong, Hwang Seok-yeong, Jo Hae-il, who were the most noteworthywriters in the 1970s. In this work, the events that heroine Yang Eun-jaunderwent as she left her home town Chungnam Nonsan and came upto Seoul. Simultaneously, the process, in which women subjects in the1970s constituted capitalistic consuming subjects, was grasped. Whendesire is formed voluntarily, it contributes to the vitalization of capitalistmicroscopic power. The subjects actively connect desire with the imageof modern capitalism and set the rise of status or affluent consumptionas their own task. In a different sense, it also can be seen that the subjectsare formed through the work of life power. This work juxtaposes city space experiences with the subjectcomposition and shows well the fact that life power of cities works inthe mechanism of exclusion and inclusion. In the core, there is the wayin which the capitalistic exchange value is integrated. City women subordinate subjects entered into the inside of life power by accepting'commercialization of the body.' Life power adopted a circulating systemin which it made the city itself become a camp, produced survivors inthe storm of modernization, and accommodated them in the camp. Through this, it created circumstances which made modern capitalismcontinue as exception status. Miss Yang's Adventure well grasped the fact that modern capitalisticlife power composed the subjects in the course of forming cities. Thewriter paid attention to 'the particular' with a realist attitude, and thiskind of writer's attitude played an important role in embodying 'theeffectiveness of power amid actually existing concrete events.' This workshows that there is a possibility of resistance inside the inner workingsby embodying the life power in Korea in the 1970s. Since subjects arecomposed by city space and at the same time the nature of city spacealso can be changed by subjects, the possibility of the subjects' resistancestill holds good.
