‘덮어쓰기’와 ‘불러오기’, 상호텍스트적 스토리텔링 - 미니시리즈 <시크릿 가든>과 <신사의 품격>을 중심으로

Abstract

Television Dramatist is the same as ‘Seherazade’ in the Arabian-Nights. This is because the dramatist has to satisfy the desires of Television audience, who demands for the sequel day after day. However, television drama is different from series of texts published and images on the screen because it has to go through dual process of text visualization. Moreover, as the story archive gets bigger, new sources of the story become smaller. In connection with this, narrative strategy by Kim, Eun-Suk is interesting. Her recent dramas <Secret Garden> and <A Gentleman’s Dignity> best show how the television dramatist can continue the story without intermission in current society where there are new sources of the story being dried up. It is a intertextual storytelling technique that is represented by ‘Overwriting’ and ‘Citation’. Dramatic writing by Kim, Eun-Suk reminds people of ‘Lego’<Secret Garden> is overwriting <My name is Kim Sam Sun> ① Both of them are a kind of love story between a Prince Charming and Cinderella. ② A male character with trauma and ③ a firm female character appear. ④ Their father does not exist in drama. ⑤ While female character’s father appears only in her dream and fantasy, ⑥ male character’s mother, or gendered patriarch, becomes influential. ⑦ Strong mother’s opposition to their relationship delays a happy ending of melodrama. ⑧ Also, A novel, based on fantastic imagination, functions as important metaphors. Like television drama’s title, <My name is Kim Sam Sun> is ‘secreted’ in <Secret Garden>. <A Gentleman’s Dignity> cites a variety of pop-cultural texts. This drama recalls various popular texts such as K-Pop, movies, television dramas and entertainment programs produced during the middle of 1980s and the early 2010s. This revival pleasure makes the loose border between inside and outside of television drama not only by attracting affective reaction but also by giving the story dramatic fun. At this time, citation of texts resembles to treasure hunt, which is always based on revelation and seek. Like television drama’s title, <A Gentleman’s Dignity>, it has brilliant citation of texts, showing ‘dignity’.
