시대적 배경에 나타난 전통문화의 변화

Abstract

This study explores supernatural and phenomena such as goblins in Samguk Yusa and strange apparitions in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty. Focusing on the ambiguity of the boundary between ‘ghost and monster’ as portrayed in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty and folk tales, the research analyzes the meanings within the context of societal changes over time. Historically negatively symbolic entities like ‘ghost’ and folklore figures have transformed into positive content, becoming innovative brands in modern society. This shift provides a new direction for the preservation and development of traditional culture. The significance and growth of K-culture extend beyond mere popularity, contributing to the convergence of historical and cultural features into symbolic content across various domains. Through this research, there is an anticipation that the driving force for reviving the value of traditional culture as content reflecting our emotions and beliefs will continue to prosper.
