ABSTRACT

This article explores Korean cinema from the 1940s to the 1960s with a focus on films about Korean–Japanese intimacy. In parallel with the promotion of Korean–Japanese intermarriage by the Japanese colonial government, a number of films produced during the colonial period portrayed intimate Korean–Japanese relationships, including marriages, friendships and affective communities. These representations disappeared immediately after the liberation, but they reappeared in the 1960s in South Korean cinema, owing to a shift in the government’s attitude toward Japan. Among Korean movies shot in Japan or featuring Japanese culture, colonial intimacy was a popular topic, particularly when it depicted romance between Korean men and Japanese women against the background of colonial history. This article argues that manifestations of colonial intimacy in Korean cinema between the 1940s and the 1960s – the transwar period – had a clear affinity with one another, portraying diverse emotions and affective relationships even in films featuring a propagandistic or nationalist militarised masculinity. I also highlight the inconsistencies of this period: whereas pre-1945 movies focussed on mutual support within affective communities, 1960s works more strongly foregrounded male heroes. All of these representations, however, critically reflect on the sociopolitical conditions of colonialism, the civil war and the Cold War.

殖民亲密的跨战连续性:韩国电影中的韩日关系,1940 年代至 1960 年代

摘要

本文探讨了 1940 年代至 1960 年代的韩国电影,重点是关于韩日亲密关系的电影。在日本殖民政府推动韩日通婚的同时,殖民时期制作的许多电影描绘了韩日亲密关系,包括婚姻、友谊和情感社区。这些表现在解放后立即消失,但由于政府对日本态度的转变,它们在 1960 年代重新出现在韩国电影中。在日本拍摄或以日本文化为主题的韩国电影中,殖民时期的亲密关系是一个热门话题,尤其是在殖民历史背景下描绘韩国男女之间的浪漫时。本文认为,1940 年代至 1960 年代(即跨战时期)韩国电影中殖民亲密的表现形式彼此之间具有明显的亲和力,即使在以宣传或民族主义军事化男性气质为特色的电影中,也描绘了不同的情感和情感关系。我还强调了这一时期的不一致之处:1945 年之前的电影侧重于情感社区内的相互支持,而 1960 年代的作品则更注重男性英雄的前景。然而,所有这些表现都批判性地反映了殖民主义、内战和冷战的社会政治状况。即使在具有宣传或民族主义军事化男子气概的电影中,也描绘了不同的情感和情感关系。我还强调了这一时期的不一致之处:1945 年之前的电影侧重于情感社区内的相互支持,而 1960 年代的作品则更注重男性英雄的前景。然而,所有这些表现都批判性地反映了殖民主义、内战和冷战的社会政治状况。即使在具有宣传或民族主义军事化男子气概的电影中,也描绘了不同的情感和情感关系。我还强调了这一时期的不一致之处:1945 年之前的电影侧重于情感社区内的相互支持,而 1960 年代的作品则更注重男性英雄的前景。然而,所有这些表现都批判性地反映了殖民主义、内战和冷战的社会政治状况。
