정율성 예술정신과 한⋅중 문화교류론 재검토

Abstract

This paper is a study on what cultural resources and logic can urge China’s awakening as a way to improve the downturn situation of cultural industry represented by hallyu from the front and further ensure the development of continuous cultural exchanges between Korea and China in the future. Jeong, Yul-seong (1914.7.7.-1976.12.7. 鄭律成, Zheng Lücheng) is a native of South Korea and an artist who has made outstanding achievements as a music artist in the anti-Japanese movement and struggle against Japanese colonialism in China. And his artistic spirit is a common heritage between Korea and China and one of the basic cornerstone of cultural exchange between Korea and China. This paper put forward three logic for the uninterrupted development of cultural exchange between Korea and China in the future. First, the modernism of East Asia in the 20th century, second, the cultural capital theory, and third, the tourism belt theory. All of these are logic related to the realistic and objective goal of the original spirit of Jeong, Yul-sung art, the state affairs agenda and the revitalization of the local economy, and furthermore, the method of ensuring long-term and continuous cultural exchanges between Korea and China. The short-sightedness of repeating denigrations by focusing on one particular part of Jeong, Yul-seong’s achievements in each period is a violation of the artist’s creative spirit devoted to modern East Asia and the national independence movement in the 20th century, and is the most important short-sighted thought for promoting cultural exchanges between Korea and China. This point should be overcome from the original location and status of the art of Jeong, Yul-seong, and instead, the logic favorable to breaking the deadlock in cultural exchange between Korea and China was presented from the cultural heritage related to Jeong, Yul-seong by the presentation of the value of the art spirit.
