Lee Kyung-jae: Modern Korean Literature and the Nation's Kaleidoscope

One of the most important themes in Korean modern literature is ethnicity. People have been highlighted since the mid-19th century as a key factor in determining people's lives, and has developed in modern Korean literature in its national insights. If we think of our position as being irresponsibly aggrivaled by aggressive nationalism throughout the 20th century, the emphasis on ethnic groups was more natural. Furthermore, for us who as a divided nation must have made unity an absolute challenge, nationalism, which is the ultimate goal of national unity, independence, well-being and prosperity, has certainly become an ideology that no one can deny its value. In the 21st century, we have seen changes in our thinking about nationalism. As the power of the country became so powerful that it was not as strong as before, the perception of the underlying side effects of nationalism began to emerge. What this book is interested in is not to reveal the true nature of the people and its origin and apply it to the chapter of literary research. But with the admission that nationalism was a key factor in Korean life and modern Korean literature, we look objectively at the response patterns of the various peoples around it. It's about the same thing as the title of a book with its comic books, which suggests that there are several literary narratives that show various reasons for ethnicism.
