동아시아 네트워크 내러티브 영화(Network Narrative Film) 연구: 홍상수, 지아장커, 장률을 중심으로

Abstract

Network narrative is a form in which the protagonists are dispersed across several works and vary like a series to reinforce the same themes as the narrative form. The network narrative characteristics of East Asian Hong Sang-soo, Jia Zhangke, and Jang Lu articulate the artist's signature through the creation of quilting points through characters (Jia Zhangke), the connection between characters and scenes through episodes (Jang Lu), and the repetition of the characters' actions (Hong Sang-soo). The similarity of form converges to thematic reinforcement via network narrative. Through network narratives like these, it is possible to identify the originality and signatures of East Asian authors. Hong Sang-soo's text proceeds with the male protagonist's path of desire, while the female walker is oriented towards existential introspection. Jia Zhangke captures the changing times and the drifting generation of young people in a documentary way. It is the protagonists who connect the two writers into a network narrative, and Jia Zhangke's Han Sanming and Zhao Tao move between films and films, representing the wanderings of contemporary peasant gongs and the younger generation adrift in a rapidly changing era. Jang's film colorfully establishes a narrative network form through the repetition of characters and situations, a decalcomanious narrative through the overlap between texts and texts, and the creation of alternative hometowns by the diaspora who have lost their homeland and the restoration of a sense of place. The characters, reproduced in the network narratives of the three artists, connect the text to the text, converging into a single theme. From the macro perspective of East Asian cinema, the similarity of the form of network narrative is an outlet to explore the zeitgeist, sentiment, and thematic origin of contemporary East Asian artists. Through that exit, the East Asian artist's episteme reaps the meaning of the diaspora sentiment caused by the historical separation caused by the Cold War (Jang Lu), the conflict between traditional culture and foreign values due to modernization (Jia Zhangke), and the diaspora of desire (Hong Sang-soo) in which individualism blossoms in the place of escape from the oppression of state ideology.
