하루키 소설의 판타지와 복잡계의 패러다임 -『해변의 카프카』･『기사단장죽이기』를 중심으로

Abstract

This study finds the reasons why Kafka on the Shore and Killing commendatore are consumed enthusiastically in Korea’s reading market for the following reasons. The personalization of digital devices and the popularization of web-based platforms during the same period of both works have resulted in remarkable quantitative and qualitative growth of character fantasy, including character production and distribution by individuals, and SF-literature. Here, globalism plays a major role in the globalization of Korea, where global platforms such as Big Data and YouTube are emerging as killer media of the times. And various forms of fantasy, including quantitative and qualitative growth. Here, globalism plays a major role in the globalization of Korea, where global platforms such as Big Data and youtube are emerging as killer media of the times. This study tries to approach the fantasy of Murakami Haruki as a paradigm of complexity by Kafka on the Shore and Killing commendatore. First, in the ‘character’s activity, subculture and snobism’, the two novels focus on the character-centered narrative story rather than the serious story, through subcultures and snobism that are prevalent in Korean society. Second, in ‘unidentifiable and object-oriented sociology’, the two novels refuse to be clarified, and the aspect of creating fantasy in ambiguous mediating state is considered in the terrain of Korean society which is transformed into the object-oriented hybrid society. Third, in ‘prophecy and metaphor, revolution of complex system’, we will consider that the fantasy of the metaphor inherent in prophecy has revolutionary value that overturns the existing world.
