<진오귀굿>의 극적 구조 고찰

Abstract

This paper examined the influence of Pansori on the dramatic structure of <Jin- O-Gwi-Gut>. In the 1970s, the topic of the theater field was “modern application of traditional performances,” which failed mostly in the established theater field, but succeeded in Madanggeuk. Whereas most of the works in the established theater field simply inserted some components of traditional performances into realism plays with western logical plots, Madanggeuk applies a structure of Pansori and deviates from the formula of logical plot of the realistic plays. This paper examined this proposition through <Jin-O-Gwi-Gut>, which is known as the beginning of the Madanggeuk, and the attempt in style was possible because <Jin-O-Gwi-Gut> had an enlightening purpose, so it was suitable for Pansori which had an “explanatory” element. Pansori has a structure of tension-relaxations in which Chang(songs) and Aniri(narratives) are repeated, and <Jin-O-Gwi-Gut> used this pattern in order to conveying explanations and empathy to the audience. Through this, the audience could understand rural realities fully and were able to communicate with each other by having a “one perspective” with the characters. As a result, viewers who came to know rural realities and feel empathy for farmers would go to Sinmyeong(ecstasy). It is noteworthy that the Sinmyeong of characters and audiences was created by the dramatic structure itself, rather than by format of after-parties. The Pansori's influence on the structure of <Jin-O-Gwi-Gut> had remained effective in the later Madanggeuk’s.
