신문소설의 영화적 변용연구 - 정비석의 자유부인 그리고 한형모의 자유부인

Abstract

The 1950s, when the newspaper novel『Madame Freedom』written by Bi-Seok Jeong was popular, was a time when newspaper novels had a very wide readership.『Madame Freedom』received a lot of attention from the readers to the extent that 150 contracts in the first place were extended to 215, which led to the success of the book and the film. The purpose of the thesis is to identify the similarities and differences in the narrative structure that occurred after the 『Madame Freedom』 of Bi-Seok Jeong was re-made by Hyung-mo Han’s. At that time, this work earned positive reviews that it had revealed negative social aspects such as “Gye”(traditional Korean private fund), a social dance party, and rampant extravagance. On the other hand, It was also criticized for provocative describing of the aberration and affair of a housewife. The novel 『Madame Freedom』 and the movie 『Madame Freedom』share the same narratives. However, differences between the languages used in print media and visual media makes differences in the expression. However, although the differences in expression in the movie-making process of the novel 『Madame Freedom』 are large, the social issues at that time played a much more important role. In 1954, when the novel 『Madame Freedom』 was in vogue, Korean language Simplification was of interest to intellectuals and the whole nation at the time, so the 『Sasangkye』 contained special feature related to Korean language Simplification. Because of the writer’s consciousness that fully considered social issues of the time, Korean language simplification was used as material and professor of Korean literature appeared in the novel. Also, before the movie 『Madame Freedom』 was released, the "In-soo Park incident" (1955) that caused the nation to stir gave a considerable impact on the movie's epic structure. Therefore, while focusing on the variations in the narrative structure of 『Madame Freedom』 based on media differences between newspaper novels and movies, I want to do more specific analysis on how social issues of the time were reflected in the two works.
