박정희 정권의 민족담론 — 신문 매체를 통해 표방된 ‘화랑’ 활용 담론을 중심으로 —

Abstract

In this article, I tried to understand The National Discourse appearing in newspaper articles during the Park Jung-hee regime. In particular, among newspaper reports related to national discourse, I analyzed articles related to Hwarang, Park Jung-hee, nationalism, or nationalism, and analyzed the content and meaning of National Discourse that linked and utilized galleries during the Park Jung-hee regime. The following is a summary of the terms expressed or mentioned in connection with the Hwarang in the national discourse that appeared in the newspaper reports, based on the ideological or spiritual aspect. National spirit, national identity, democracy, ideology and spirit of the National Education Charter, Yushin ideology, Saemaul spirit, Philosophy of national reunification in the 1980s, etc. In the ‘Hwarang and the Hwarang Spirit’ discussed in the nationalist discourses or national discourses of the Park Jung-hee regime, the content that ‘he gave his life or devoted himself to the unification of the three countries’ was particularly emphasized. I think, The link between Hwarang and Hwarang spirit in the national discourse of the Park Jung-hee administration was essential not only at the regime level but also at the personal level of Park Jung-hee - to cover or dilute the national and historical disgrace as much as possible with “Korea Military Academy and ‘Hwarang’”. Park Jung-hee and his administration linked and utilized galleries to assert that they had historical legitimacy in the ideology and policies they particularly emphasized or produced, or spread such historical awareness. By doing so, he maintained his long-term power while justifying and rationalizing the dictatorship, consolidating and stabilizing it. In response to this, most of the newspaper articles related to national discourse linked to ‘Hwarang’, except for Hwang Hwang-deok’s “Characteristics of the May 16 Military Revolution” in 1962 - sympathized with, and defended as a logical and systematic argument.
