인간과 세상의 김영하식 속내 들여다 보기

Abstract

The hypothesis that many qualifiers contributed to Y. H. Kim can be both decorations and burdens for him always seems anxious. Can those new experiments he presents to readers be continued? Can he successfully avoid the compulsion or mannerism from the new experiments? Such anxiety that lingers around his works is originated from his position being one of those few writers who holds many readers with outstanding characteristics. At the same time, it would be the wishes of his maniacs for him to continue to provide with fresh ideas endlessly. Games incorporating limitless imagination that crosses the border between the virtuality and reality he provided, and the themes and plots departed from ordinaries have been the sources of the attraction for the readers. Amazing techniques attract readers' eyes and suffocate their breath, make them admire with uncontrollable shouts. Only at the reversion the readers are able to restore their mind and smile. His brilliant techniques are real highlights. However, it should be something worth to reviewed that the messages of the writer are correctly conveyed or distorted by originalities. Magnificent rhetoric sure can attract eyes. However, In order to maintain those interests and to deliver impression in return, the core has to be focused and contents have to be substantial. If those attracted eyes become sick of bewilderments, the image of the writer will be formed into a flattery to the sensation of the times. Anyway, there can be nothing more to add to his splendid performance and animal-like ability of capturing. In his new works to come, it is our expectation that the powerful attraction, fresh shock and impression conveying cores that deserve the weight to be set on the same level.
