JODK 경성방송국의 설립과 초기의 연예방송 = Establishment of Gyeongseong Broadcast Station and Its Entertainment Program in the Early Period

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this paper, I examine the process of establishment of Gyeongseong(Seoul) Broadcast Station(京城放送局) by using both Korean and Japanese language newspapers and journals published in the Japanese colonial period. This paper also explores the radio program in the early period of Gyeongseong Broadcast Station focusing especially on the entertainment program.
In February 1927, under the call sign JODK, the newly established Gyeongseong Broadcast Station began a regular radio program but the call sign JODK vanished with its final broadcasting which announced Japanese Emperor's surrender and the end of the Pacific War. There were several test broadcasts before the official radio broadcast of Gyeongseong Broadcast Station: an official one by the Ministry of Communication(朝鮮總督府遞信局), and a private one by the Chosen Daily(朝鮮日報). But the Japanese Government's broadcasting policy forced the Government-General of Korea(朝鮮總督府) to permit only one broadcast station in Korea under the bureaucratic control, and both Korean and Japanese applications were amalgamated into one public interest juridical person(公益法人); Gyeongseong Broadcast Station.
Because the radio set was too expensive in the early period of radio broadcasting, the Korean language presses such as Chosen Daily and Donga Daily held radio meetings for the common Korean people. And some branch of the press organized radio tour and went round southern Korea. Some women made study visit to the newly established Gyeongseong Broadcast Station studio and Gyeongseong Broadcast Corporation sponsored radio school in order to build an audience. As many people could have access to the radio broadcasting through these media events, the number of official radio audience increased since April 1933, when a second, all-Korean station was on the air.
Gyeongseong Broadcast Station was on the air only for six and half hours a day and less than 30 percent of its programs were broadcast in Korean language. The main Korean program was music performance, playing Korean traditional records and literary art(放送文藝); such as film interpreting(映畵解說), radio movie(放送映畵劇), radio drama, radio novel, radio sketch, etc. Through all these entertainment programs by the new media free from spatial-temporal limit, it is possible to rebuild traditional music; to increase cultural interchange between southern and northern Korea; and to create new literary genre adapted to the radio.
