It is expressed, interpreted and identified differently in particular time periods and social situations. That is, it is a certain product not existing in itself but determined, given meanings, and contextualized by the mechanism of production and consumption. The purpose of this study is to interpret the social change affected by the manifestation of red color in the Korean society. It analyzes the society with the variable of color and researches the practical processes of the red color and its patterns in the specific historical context. This study is to determined to understand what the red color has meant in Korean society and how it is to be practiced. So it is not intend to research the aesthetic and psychological aspects of the red color. It analyzes which political, social, and ideological mechanisms were operated behind the fact that the red color was practiced as a particular form. Furthermore, it is also focused on defining specific patterns and implementation motivation in which ideological practice of the red color seizes and loses its hegemony. According to the result, in the pre-modern period society of the Joseon Dynesty, the red color was an exclusive possession of the royalty. Therefore, its consumption was controled by the monarchy. The consumption of the red color in that time functioned as a symbol of status by political and economic factors. It was symbolized as a function of distinction. The solid control of the red color in the modern Korean society made progress. This transitional movement is an external factor which influenced the Korean Peninsula during the global cold war. The first internal factor in this phenomenon is a physical factor, the existence of North Korea. Secondly, the control of the red color appeared as a control of ideology based on economic growth and political regulations. It was a time when its power was extended, which was then internalized as political tools and rejected within an anticommunist society. Lastly, it is an absence of oppositional ideology. The red color has functioned as the color of control by these internal and external factors. The control of the red color in the post-modern Korean society reached a turning-point and led to a de-control. With this transitional moment, external factors were affected by the post–cold war global system. The first internal factor was the change of relations with North Korea after the democratization in 1987. Secondly, democratic government brought into changes of the ideology of control. Lastly, it was the growth of oppositional ideology. Industrial labourers and students who cultivated an oppositional ideology grew, and played a prominent part in collapsing ruling class. The layered factors having been operated, the de-control of the red color was triggered. The red color in the post-modern Korean society represents the identity of groups or individuals. The first trigger of de-control of the red color is the site of the labor movements at the beginning of 1990`s. After these events, red color phenomenon offers a stepping stone to Red Evils and red logo of Saenuri Party. There is an interesting thing about the qualitative growth of industrial labourers and students whom the ruling class supported for themselves which rather took a central place in demolishing the ruling class. This counterforce also plays a leading part on driving de-control of the red color which would be operated as a tool of control. This study found that the practice of a cultural element, the red color led to political and economic changes from the case study, which indicates color is one of the social products. It also explains a microscopic property through the red color a micro clue, exemplifying the significance of studying the color. ，韩语毕业论文，韩语论文网站 |
