1970년대 국내 일본애니메이션 수용 방식 연구

Abstract

1970s was an important period in Korean animation history. With the emergence of TV media, sole dominance of theater as window to distribute animations had ended and the audience had exposed to multiple windows to experience animation. One of the most important impact of beginning of TV animation in Korea is that it served as a gate way to introduce Japanese, Japanese animated TV series to be specific, animations. During 1970s, Korean government strictly banned most cultural products from Japan including Japanese theatrical animation releases, but Japanese animated TV series were allowed by the means of 'co-production', use Korean labors as subcontractor in Japanese production. Japanese animated TV series, with better production value and variety in themes, had become a major force in Korea, but origin of famous Japanese animated TV series had concealed and Korean audience accepted them as Korean animation. Although Korean animations were popular in theater, due to a ban of Japanese theatrical animation releases, they were heavily influenced by popular Japanese TV series at the time which were aired on TV in Korea. This peculiar reception pattern of Japanese animation in Korea influenced Korean audience as well as creators and had become one of the main obstacle which had dragged the growth of Korean animation.
