Abstract

This study is to consider the relation between “Discouse on Home” and “Japanese Colonization” based on Home exhibition that Keijyonitposhya and Meilshinbo held in 1915. Home exhibition that was held in Chosun was about a “Home” that was gathered for the Japanese establishment as a modern nation-state and also a media event that reflected the actual viewpoint of a “home” about that time. The home exhibition held in Chosun was the opportunity for the Colonial Chosun people to realize Japanese capital and power after accomplishing their modernization. The feature of Japanese family by using modern conveniences was a good experience to visually see the development of Japan and its purpose was to make Chosun perceive how Chosun family was living in poor surroundings compared to the one of Japan. In the fifth year of Japanese colonization, the changes of Japanese “Home” was considered to be important for the stability of colonization. The unstable features of “Home”, even though family-unit immigration had increased, were an essential task that needed to be improved. The education of Japanese children living in Chosun, at the same time, was very important in order to foster them as exemplary people who will lead the Japanese Colonial. Even though the number of Japanese children in Chosun was increasing, they didn’t have much information about their own country and in order to overcome the concerns Japanese government had, Home exhibition was held for the permanent domination of Chosun.
