초록
This study examines the representation of Lusophone African countries, specifically Angola and Mozambique, in Korean media, highlighting how they are portrayed from perspectives of marginalization and peripheralization. Through an analysis of news articles, the study reveals that these countries are often depicted through an economic lens, primarily as sites for resource extraction or investment opportunities, while their cultural, historical, and societal complexities are largely overlooked. Furthermore, the coverage tends to present Angola and Mozambique as passive actors within global power dynamics, reinforcing their status as peripheral entities. The findings underscore the need for a more balanced and nuanced approach to media reporting, advocating for diverse and in-depth coverage that recognizes the agency and rich experiences of these nations.
