Abstract

Refugees from diverse socio-cultural backgrounds and geopolitical locations face temporal challenges during their transition, yet more research needs to be conducted to understand their time conception in the host society. This study explores how North Korean refugees from remote rural areas in North Korea and China adjusted their time conception in a metropolitan city in South Korea. Data were collected through a pilot study (January-March 2017) and ethnographic fieldwork (February-July 2018), entailing semi-structured interviews, informal conversations, and field notes. Vygotsky's psychological tool and Ricoeur's interpretive approach were employed to solicit the mediation of time conception through organizational activities and narrative meanings. The analysis reveals themes that challenge refugees' time conception reflecting North Korean values and daily activities-Kimilsungism, collectivism, and task-oriented attitude-and the changes in time conception on the sense of the self. Refugees' learning in time conception is a holistic spiritual, social, and personal process.

朝鲜难民时间观念的变化:社会文化视角。
来自不同社会文化背景和地缘政治位置的难民在过渡期间面临着时间挑战,但需要进行更多的研究来了解他们在东道国社会的时间观念。本研究探讨了来自朝鲜和中国偏远农村地区的朝鲜难民如何在韩国大都市调整他们的时间观念。数据是通过试点研究(2017年1月至3月)和民族志实地调查(2018年2月至7月)收集的,包括半结构化访谈、非正式对话和实地笔记。运用维果茨基的心理学工具和里科的阐释方法,通过组织活动和叙事意义来寻求时间概念的中介。分析揭示了挑战难民时间观念的主题,这些主题反映了朝鲜的价值观和日常活动——Kimilsungism、集体主义和任务导向态度,以及时间观念对自我意识的变化。难民的时间观学习是一个整体的精神、社会和个人过程。
