38선 월경의 (비)가시화와 서사적 정당성 -분단 체제 성립 전후 38선 월경 서사를 중심으로

Abstract

The 38th parallel was a dividing line defined by the military necessity for the presence and occupation of the Korean Peninsula during the post-Asia-Pacific War as part of US policy toward Asia. On the 38th parallel, Soviet and American troops were pearled and occupied north and south. With the installation of the Military Administration, movements for the elimination of the 38th parallel have been active in South Korean society. The 38th parallel was a barrier to building an independent state through national unification. Therefore, the Koreans who were liberated but did not achieve independence must be abolished the 38th parallel for independence. However, with the strengthening of the trusteeship system, the 38th parallel acted as a dividing line of ideology that strengthened the exclusive hostility of the two Koreas. Accordingly, the 38th parallel acted as a dividing line of ideology that strengthened the exclusive hostility of the two Koreas. In the narrative of crossing the 38th parallel, before and after the establishment of a single government and the establishment of a system of division between the two Koreas, the act of crossing the 38th parallel has been captured in the context of national suffering. At that time, the last and painful process of crossing the 38th parallel showed a direction from north to south. And it became visible by the movement of the population that prepares for the ethnicity of South Korean society, and obtained narrative justification. But among them, the Japanese, who were old-time colonists, or those who practiced illegal crossing, had vaguely left behind traces. Their crossing the 38th parallel remained vaguely, though not specifically described, but existed. In that sense, the narrative of crossing the 38th parallel had the effect of justifying the behavior and desires of menstruating individuals and groups at the national level.
