2019년 『조선문학』을 통해 본 북한문학의 당문학적 지향성 고찰 - 자력갱생의 정신, 세계 일등의 지향, 과학기술 강국의 욕망 -

Abstract

A review of "Chosun Literature" in 2019 reveals "self-renewal" of North Korean literature, which emphasizes the position of "party literature." North Korea's "Dear Leader," which aims to unite the three powers of the "Leader-Party-People," worked hard on the world stage for two years from 2018-1919. However, it is in 2019 that North Korea-U.S. relations and inter-Korean relations are difficult to realize as predicted by the North. Moreover, the symbolic scene of "Bombing the Inter-Korean Liaison Office in Kaesong" on June 16, 2020 surprised the world. It shows that efforts to establish a peace regime on the Korean Peninsula, which lasted from 2018 to 19, are likely to go nowhere in an instant. In 2019, "Chosun Literature" shows that the current expressions of North Korean literature emphasize three main points. First, self-renewal is emphasized. "self-renewal" turns out to be an "inevitable mental power" and a strong will to create a "miracle myth" that will lead North Korean society to a better future in 2019 despite the trials of outside sanctions and blockade. Second, it is the world's first-class goal. The world's No. 1 goal shows that North Korea's society is making progress toward a better "socialist civilization" with the will and practice of "self-renewal" despite the continued blockade of the outside world. Third, it aims to become a science and technology powerhouse. The fostering of talent and the orientation of a science and technology powerhouse become a key task of driving the future, with emphasis being placed on strategic resources and weapons to generate a leap in socialist construction. In 2020, North Korean literature still emphasizes "self- renewal." Of course, they are looking for a new landscape on the Korean Peninsula that is different from those of 2018-19. Although it is a North Korean literature that emphasizes "Leader imagery literature," it can be seen as a sign of the changing aspects of North Korean society in works that show various internal landscapes. As in Joo Seol-woong's short novel "Pine Tree" and Kim Hyung-joon's "In the Beginning of the Science and Technology Exhibition," poems and novels that melt the daily lives of the people are expected to continue to be produced even in the direction of the leader and the party. And it is assumed that the dotage as a common interest in literature between the two Koreas could be expanded from such a realistic expression of socialist daily life
