摘要

摘要：这篇文章探讨了一部非常受欢迎的韩国电视剧《迫降在你身上》是如何通过对“国民”的想象来诠释和产生韩国人的身份的。我们借鉴建构主义文献，探讨了国家身份叙事的传记参数及其在全球政治中的意义，来审视韩国屏幕上朝鲜不断变化的形象。我们将《迫降》分析为一组反映韩国国民身份建构的表征，以及现实世界的社会政治后果。我们认为，屏幕上对朝鲜的怀旧描绘将其定位为朝鲜过去的容器，其特点是乡村和亲密的社区生活。相比之下，资本主义（后）现代性是韩国不可避免的存在，标志着韩国凭借其发展成功在物质上战胜了朝鲜。最后，统一是一个面向未来的项目，它将朝韩两国分裂的传记轨迹结合在一起，但在物质上仍然难以捉摸。

K-drama Narrates the National: Korean Identities in Crash Landing on You

Abstract:This article considers how a very popular South Korean TV drama, Crash Landing on You, both interprets and produces Korean identity through its imagining of the 'national'. We draw on constructivist literature that explores the biographical parameters of national identity narratives and their significance in global politics to examine changing representations of North Korea on South Korean screens. We analyze Crash Landing as a set of representations that mirror South Korea's construction of Korean national identit(ies), with real-world, sociopolitical consequences. We argue that nostalgic depictions of North Korea on screen situate it as the receptacle of a Korean past characterized by ruralness and intimate community life. In contrast, capitalist (post-)modernity is South Korea's inescapable present, signifying its material victory over the North by virtue of its developmental successes. Finally, reunification is the future-oriented project that unites the divided biographical trajectories of both Koreas but remains materially elusive.
