This essay tries to show how the process of urban modernization in colonial Korea fosters a distinct array of narrative and figural arrangements in the novels of the 1930s. Steeped in irony and self-reflection, the urban novels of the 1930s stands as a disruptive site in the nationalist historiography of translating all the past events and memories into the Minjok frame of modern Korea, since it alludes to the frame—its cultural or ideological distinctions—by means of displacing or complicating it. In accommodating an expanding horizon of cultural activities across different boundaries from class to gender, the urban outlook promotes the view that one’s identity is a malleable concept, which jars with the rigid frame of nationhood in projecting shifting ideas of cultural or social belongingness. It is with such a decentralizing effect in mind that I will discuss Pak T’ae-wǒn and Yi Sang in their most celebrated novellas, Sosǒlga Kubossi ǔi iril and Nalgae respectively.
