초록

According to Morse (2020), it is significant to acknowledge the idea of ‘care for people’ within museums and heritage sites in post-covid 19 period and, in turn, to revive their ability to generate societal value in the twenty-first century. In order to understand this new social value that is created within museums, it is necessary to understand ‘people’, and my specific focus here which is on ‘visitors’, asking what they are doing and how they make meaning, particularly towards difficult history. This article begins by briefly introducing the result of my empirical study at Independence Hall of Korea, (which forms part of my PhD research), and using it as a case study to demonstrate how South Korean visitors empathetically engage with Japanese colonial period history. In order to this, qualitative interview was conducted with 20 South Korean visitors and the critical analysis of the author as a critical visitor will be included. By doing so, it not only expands our understanding of South Korean visitors’ various empathetic engagements within museums, but also suggests and stimulates new theoretical and conceptual ways to think and understand the social role of museum and heritage sites through notions of ‘registers of empathy’ and ‘ideas of care’.

Abstract

According to Morse (2020), it is significant to acknowledge the idea of ‘care for people’ within museums and heritage sites in post-covid 19 period and, in turn, to revive their ability to generate societal value in the twenty-first century. In order to understand this new social value that is created within museums, it is necessary to understand ‘people’, and my specific focus here which is on ‘visitors’, asking what they are doing and how they make meaning, particularly towards difficult history. This article begins by briefly introducing the result of my empirical study at Independence Hall of Korea, (which forms part of my PhD research), and using it as a case study to demonstrate how South Korean visitors empathetically engage with Japanese colonial period history. In order to this, qualitative interview was conducted with 20 South Korean visitors and the critical analysis of the author as a critical visitor will be included. By doing so, it not only expands our understanding of South Korean visitors’ various empathetic engagements within museums, but also suggests and stimulates new theoretical and conceptual ways to think and understand the social role of museum and heritage sites through notions of ‘registers of empathy’ and ‘ideas of care’.
