신선서사의 뉴미디어적 재생산― ‘계룡선녀전’을 중심으로

Abstract

In this paper, we discussed reproduction of Taoist hermit narrative in the new-media era, focusing on webtoons and television drama Gyeryong Sunnyeojeon.. Gyeryong Sunnyeojeon is a story of love between a Taosit fairy who has come down to the human world and a man in the human world. It was completed in 2018 in the form of a webtoon. and was broadcast in the second half of 2018 as a drama on airwaves. In this paper, we made a comparative analysis the structure of Gyeryong Sunnyeojeon' with Liexianzhuan(列仙傳) in Weijin(魏晉) era and the works of the human and god’s love(人神戀愛) type of Tang Chuan-qi(唐傳奇). Consequently, searched for the re-produced form of Chinese classical narrative in webtoons and dramas as narrative in the new-media era. Also, studied how the Korean classical narrative was reflected in the composition of the content of Gyeryong Sunnyeojeon'. Futhermore, in this paper, focused on consumers of Taoist hermit narrative. As a result, we found out that the consumers of Chinese-Korean classical narrative was male, in comparison to that, the consumers of new-media narrative was female or have a tendecy of female identity. Therefore, we have reached the conclusion that this fact affects the structure and content of Taoist hermit narrative in the new-media era.
