제주4․3에 대한 전승과 ‘숭시[凶事]’

Abstract

I explored the relationship between the aspect that Soongsidam [凶事談] is placed in the narrative and Jeju 4․3 Taboo in this study. First, the characteristics of each type of Sungsidam were discussed in relation to Jeju 4․3 Incident. In the case of animal types, the large-scale loss of life in Jeju 4․3 was highlighted through proliferation and mass death. In the case of plant type, the characteristics of Jeju 4․3 Incident were reflected as a riot that came after a bad harvest and famine through proliferation, and the characteristics of 4․3 as a rebellion through the phenomenon of distorted natural laws. In Soongsidam of celestial bodies and climate contain hostile struggles between the armed forces and the military and police. And in Soongsidam of human, the struggles is more directly revealed. Next, the influence of the taboo on the 4․3 narrative was examined through the arrangement of Sungsidam in the narrative. First, the reason that Sungsi and events are not closely related in a causal relationship in the early narratives can be said to be because it was a taboo period and limited in revealing the essence of Jeju 4․3 Incident. Second, the fact that the narrative published in 1997 actively related events and Sungsi can be said to be the reason why it freely testified to the tragedy due to the lifting of the taboo and actively used Sungsi to highlight its tragedy. Lastly, it can be said that it reflects the times that have become significantly free from taboos in that the horrors of the Jeju 4․3 Incident have recently been described in a more detailed manner and evocative Sungsidam have been evoked.
