드라마 <우리들의 블루스>에 재현된 장애인의 완전 통합 방안 연구

Abstract

This study critically analyzes inclusion strategies for people with disability in the drama “Our Blues” from an interdisciplinary perspective in cultural and disability studies, evaluating both their significance and limitations. The study shows that Our Blues naturally portrays person with disability as members of the Purung Village community, presenting an ideal model of inclusion with non-disabled members. Our Blues goes beyond the stereotypical portrayal of disabled families, showcasing diverse realities and emphasizing the significant process of creating new families with a disabled spouse or spouse with a disabled family member. It authentically depicts disability with disabled actors portraying characters having similar disabilities, emphasizing the closeness of their lives and cultures instead of just mimicking disability. However, it should address the drama's limitations, especially in restricting the independence of character with developmental disability and portraying person with disability and her family as objects of sympathy and pity. The research findings provide valuable insights for real-life inclusion of person with disability and suggest ways to enhance the portrayal of disabilities in dramas.
