1920-30년대 한국의 이상적 “신여성” 이미지와 패션

국문 초록 (Abstract)

The term “new woman” (신여성 [Sinyeoseong], 新女性) refers to an idealized image of contemporary women during the so-called modern period in East Asia. In Korea, these “modern girls” were also referred to as modan (毛斷), or “cut-hair”, reflecting changes in appearances that rejected the traditional value system in favor of “the new” in everyday life. Although it was used to refer to the perceived educated leaders of this new period, it also had the negative connotation of referring to frivolous women only interested in the latest fashion. The popular discourse on this “new woman” was constantly changing during this early modern period in East Asia, ranging from male-driven women’s movements to women-driven liberal and socialist movements. The discourse often included ideals of what constituted female impeccability in women’s domestic roles and enlightened views on housekeeping, yet in most cases the “new woman” was also expected to be a good wife and mother as well as a successful career woman. The concept of the “new woman” was also accompanied by an upheaval in women’s social roles and their physical boundaries, and resulted in women repositioning themselves in the new society. The new look was a way of constructing their bodies to fit their new roles, and this again was rapidly reproduced in visual media. Newspapers, magazines, and plays had gained immense popularity by this time and provided visual material for the age with covers, advertisements, and illustrations. This research will explore the fashion of the “new woman” through archival resources, specifically magazines published in the 1920s and 1930s. It will investigate how women’s appearances and the images they pursued reflected the ideal image of the “new woman.” Fashion information providers, trendsetters, and levels of popular acceptance will also be examined in the context of the early stage of the fashion industry in East Asia, including production and distribution. Additionally, as the idea of the “new woman” was a worldwide phenomenon throughout the 19th and early 20th century, the effect of Japanese colonialism on the structure of Korean culture and its role as a cultural mediator will also be considered in how the ideal image of beauty was sought, and whether this was a western, colonial, or national preference.
