Источниковедение и историография Кореи к 150-летию академика В. В. Бартольда (1869–1930). Ч. 2 187 derived from the author’s intention to portray the 1950s situation through the form of “Chunhyangjeon.” Lastly, “Bangja and Hyangdan”, directed by Lee Hyung-pyo (1922–2010), was released on March 25, 1972, at theAcademy Theater. 1 The plot of the piece is similar to “Chunhyangjeon”, however, it fully utilizes the cultural codes of the 1970s. For example, Lee Mong-ryong goes to Seoul and becomes a prosecutor. Bang-ja works in a cabaret. Byun Hak-do always pressures Chunhyang and Wolmae with money. So Chunhyang eventually becomes engaged to Byun Hak-do and the engagement ceremony is also held in the cabaret. The similarities between “ModernChunhyangjeon,” “NylonChunhyangjeon,” and “Bangja and Hyangdan” are as follows. First, the basic plot of “Chunhyangjeon” — ‘Meeting, Love, Separation, and Reunion’—does not change in the adapted versions of “Chunhyangjeon.” Second, each piece develops in a new time and space setting and faithfully reflects cultural codes of the day. Third, these are interpretations of “Chunhyangjeon” in a popular genre: newspaper serial cartoons, newspaper serial novels, and film. Of course, the three works differ in the quality, the situation of the times reflected, and the degree of their satire. Nevertheless, they can be defined as the ‘modern Chunhyangjeon’ category, a new interpretation of the classical novel, i. e. “Chunhyangjeon.” In addition, the ‘modern Chunhyangjeon’ category demonstrates various forms of “Chunhyangjeon” as a dynamic text. The narrative of “Chunhyangjeon”, which changes as the time passes, shows how modern writers and readers perceive and use “Chunhyangjeon.” In short, the classic novel “Chunhyangjeon” does not only remain in the form of the text of the past, but it continues to be reinterpreted by the authors and communicated to the readers of the day. Ernest Ming-tak Leung (Chinese University of Hong Kong) The Japanese Contribution to Korean Socialism Popular assumption has always held that North Korea, the so-called ‘Hermit Kingdom’, constitutes the “other” in Asia, compared to “us” rational, pacifist, capitalist and internationalised nations. From the point of view of the Japanese, or even the Chinese, whom until four decades ago experienced a society not dissimilar to that of North Korea, the Kim regime now seems like an isolated anomaly. This paper is a preliminary attempt at demolishing such a narrative. There are a variety of approaches that could be used in understanding the pervasive Japanese legacy that exists in the ideology, economy and state policies of socialist 1 For information on the films covered in this paper, see KMDB (https://www.kmdb. or.kr/main) of the Korea FilmArchive and Movie DB (http://www.kobis.or.kr/kobis/business/ mast/mvie/searchMovieList.do) of the Korean Film Council.
