'월남전 참전용사'의 전적지 관광과 전쟁기억의 재구성

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Korean veterans set out trips to the battlefields of the Vietnam War in search of the memory of their participation in the war. Recalling their experiences of the war in four decades, they prepare itineraries for their journey back to the former “genuine” battlegrounds. The battlefield travel is a pilgrimage of experiencing history as well as ritual journey into memory and transnational leisure activity. This study is an ethnography which interprets narrations and discourses of the veterans` personal and collective memories of the “Wol-nam war” experiences as (re)-produced in time travel for the old battlefields. The memories and discourses reflect major issues in Korean society over the background to participation in the Vietnam War and its process and result as well as the conflict over the aftermaths of the war participation. Korean veterans attempt to restore the past while sharing the stories of their former battles in the places of memory. While visiting the battlefields, they not only turn their memories into romantic ones but also talk about the fear and horror of the war. They feel as if they were still in the battle of the past. In the process of the field trips, Korean veterans “Korean-ize” or “Daihan-ize” the Vietnam War. After the trips, the veterans eagerly share their stories with other fellow veterans and put together the fragments of memory, thereby forming collective memory. They have also made continuous attempt to heal their wounds from the war and reconcile themselves with the painful past. To the war veterans, the “Wol-nam War” not just becomes the present in their memory but also the wounds remaining on their body testify that the war is not over yet. Their acts of posting and sharing the stories or descriptions of the trips to the battlefields on the Internet are socialization or social identification of [counter-] memories.
