Abstract

In line with the legitimacy of the people, at the same time it was the period that wanted to establish a decolonized modern nation and sought the literary identity. The subject of acceptance and discourse on Korean “A Doll’s House” develops own objective and also subjective plan by describing Ibsen’s play & ‘Nora’ which is focusing on female’s liberation. Some intellectuals who led the acceptance at the beginning said that it needs to make Joseon female self-reliant and equal to male. However, some of male-oriented discourse seems a reflection of spouse or lover to build a family with modern female in the forefront of modernization at that time rather than not based on female’s liberation and independence. This is called again with consistent viewpoint from the “Nora” discourse in the liberation. This shows Nora has to sacrifice her “The Women in the rear guard” (Chong Hoo Buin) position and return home. And this return goes home, to the duty of the right wife. After all, the discourse after the liberation period is included in the more developed gender politics & cannot escape. In the end, the story of “Nora” is a member of modern families only, but it does not lead to the limitations of colonial rule and democratic nation building. It consistently shows “Nora” has to break up negation, sacrifice herself at the same position of “The Women in the rear guard” (Chong Hoo Buin) and finally go home. And this ‘going home’ leads to a family which is the first part of the country and also an ideal wife’s responsibility, duty and support to her family. After all, the “Nora” discourse after the liberation period could not overcome the more advanced male genders in condition which is not clean up of male-centered viewpoint.
