Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic created an immobility situation that was not just a quarantine issue, but formed meta-discourses in all areas related to human life, including politics, economy, diplomacy, education, and culture. Even in the urgent situation of these meta-discourses in which nations had to decide on their future, discourses existed about daily life and the unusual lives of individuals caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. To record the testimonies of that era, the Mobility Humanities Education Center at Konkuk University has collected writings on life changed after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which were written by middle and high school students, college students, and ordinary citizens. This paper attempts a narrative analysis of the 51 essays to explore how Koreans are influenced by meta-discourses, to examine that era, and make suggestions for the future.
