- W4384702470 abstract "This article asserts that the creative space of the South Korean movie Burning (Bŭhning, 2018) encompasses and intertwines three conceptual constructs: Fredric Jameson’s ‘national allegory of third-world text,’ Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o’s ‘neocolonialism discussion,’ and Lauren Berlant’s notion of ‘slow death.’ Burning may be read as a cinematic diagnosis of the circumstances that currently prevail in South Korea. It can also be experimentally interpreted as a comparative interfacing of the three abovementioned theories. This article illuminates how a horizontal reading of the identified theories may facilitate the definition of Burning’s genre, and how the comparative methodology of discovering a film’s typology can aid the resolution of social problems across the world in the present era of global capitalism. To achieve this goal, the article studies the allegorical meaning of the female protagonist’s dance that leads to reading the structure of feeling of the historicity represented through the individual body. This study attempts to read the history of the viewer’s progressive consciousness by recognizing the female lead’s dance scene that implies the colonial past linked to the present situation. Namely, the genre of the film is identified in the process of understanding the assertion that the diagnosis of Korea’s present can be made by connecting it to its past. The article compares the history experienced by Korean comfort women and the current circumstances on the Korean Peninsula, where people continue to live with the ongoing crisis which includes the difficulties of the younger generation, who are alienated from extreme capitalism and have degenerated into a surplus labor class. In the process of identifying Burning’s genre as a ‘national allegorical third-world text of neocolonial cruel optimism,’ this article suggests that the study of cultural history in Korean film can be an allegory for diagnosing common problems of this world." @default.
