摘要

本文分析了三个以韩国多元文化为主题的电视真人秀节目是如何话语性地产生韩国性的。我们的学术研究立足于“他者”和平庸民族主义的概念(比利格，1995年)，并对这些节目进行了主题分析。我们的研究结果表明，这些节目采用了韩国-外国的二分法，这成为了一个镜头，通过它，观众可以间接体验到一个统一的韩国文化的存在。我们认为，将韩国的“我们”与外国的“他们”并列，妨碍了想象一个更加多元化的韩国——尽管这些节目表面上是在庆祝韩国日益增长的多样性。

Banal Koreanness: National imagery in multicultural-themed television shows

This article analyses how three South Korean multicultural-themed reality television programmes discursively produce Koreanness. We ground our study in scholarship on ‘othering’ and the notion of banal nationalism (Billig, 1995) and conduct a thematic analysis of the shows. Our findings show that the programmes adopt a Korea-foreign dichotomy that becomes a lens through which viewers can vicariously experience the existence of a unified South Korean culture. We argue that the juxtaposition of a Korean ‘us’ against a foreign ‘them’ precludes imagining a more pluralistic South Korea – even as the programmes ostensibly celebrate South Korea’s increasing diversity.

期刊介绍： Critical Studies in Television publishes articles that draw together divergent disciplines and different ways of thinking, to promote and advance television as a distinct academic discipline. It welcomes contributions on any aspect of television—production studies and institutional histories, audience and reception studies, theoretical approaches, conceptual paradigms and pedagogical questions. It continues to invite analyses of the compositional principles and aesthetics of texts, as well as contextual matters relating to both contemporary and past productions. CST also features book reviews, dossiers and debates. The journal is scholarly but accessible, dedicated to generating new knowledge and fostering a dynamic intellectual platform for television studies.
