Abstract:
Previous research on testimony literature including novels that reproduce the ‘comfort women’ of the Japanese military has tended to rely on the aesthetics of conventional realism. The novels on the ‘comfort women’ of the Japanese military this study focuses on, however, reveal different aspects from the previous reproduction of reality like the imitation of reality. This study intensively analyzes noteworthy texts out of the works that have been released up to now after the 1980’s, for instance, Yun Jeong-mo, Nora Okja Keller, Go Hye-jeong, and Kim Sum’s novels. The novels on the ‘comfort women’ of the Japanese military as testimony literature employ the technique of ‘fantasy’ in order to obtain reality and contain aesthetic autonomy in them. Also, such borrowing of ‘fantasy’ shows paradoxically that pain is indescribable. Moreover, those novels not just remaining in the representation of historical pain seek to heal trauma caused by pain from an ecofeminist perspective and pursue the narrative of salvation for the sake of survival.

Abstract:
This essay highlights the way Keller’s novel, Comfort Woman (1997) explores the connection between women’s sexual bodies, colonialism and Korean nationalism. Through the resistance of heroic women characters against patriarchal definitions and feminization of a colonized nation, Keller narrates subversive feminist resistance to humiliating inscriptions of patriarchy and colonialism onto the sexual bodies of women. The text is closely analysed using tools of literary devices, in particular, subversive strategies and the idea of silences as a tool and a theme to convey the unspoken and the unspeakable. Soon Hyo’s passive silences as a comfort woman in the comfort camps and her transformation later to paranormal articulations as a shaman is interpreted as powerful forms of resistance against patriarchy’s inscription upon her body. Her silent passivity, re-interpreted as a form of active resistance becomes more meaningful as she wrestles back the identities and recognition for the thousands of comfort women that would otherwise be forgotten. Comfort Woman inquires into the links between languages, silences and subjectivity, colonial domination and Korean nationalism, sexuality and nation, resisting any attempts at separating the links. Keller invoked the power of performance and silences in the form of “strange” articulations and tropes which were culturally specific as subversive means of re-telling her story and inscribing new meanings onto women’s sexual bodies, thus rewriting the feminine constructions of a nation.

Abstract:
Vol. 1 Typhoon Kingdom: Major Work -- Vol. 2 Writing at the Intersection of Trauma and Haunting: Narrative Representations of Korean “Comfort Women” in English: Exegesis
Major Work: Typhoon Kingdom In 1653, the Dutch East India Company’s Sparrowhawk is wrecked on a Korean island, and Hae-jo, a local fisherman, guides the ship’s bookkeeper to Seoul in search of his surviving shipmates. The two men, one who has never ventured to the mainland and the other unable to speak the language, are soon forced to choose between loyalty to each other and a king determined to maintain his country’s isolation. Three hundred years later, in the midst of the Japanese occupation, Yoo-jin is taken from her family and forced into prostitution, and a young soldier must navigate the Japanese surrender and ensuing chaos of the Korean War to find her. Based on the seventeenth-century journal of Hendrick Hamel and testimonies of surviving Korean “Comfort Women,” “Typhoon Kingdom” connects two narratives through an examination of language, foreignness and traumatic haunting. The novel seeks to make a unique creative contribution to the small body of literature in English representing the diverse and traumatic experiences of Korean “Comfort Women” and the tumultuous history of the Korean peninsula. Exegesis: Writing at the Intersection of Trauma and Haunting: Narrative Representations of Korean “Comfort Women” in English An examination of narrative representations of the traumatic experiences of Korean “Comfort Women” that explores a new way of reading and writing about literatures on the subject. Chapter One provides an historical context examining events and their forgetting. Chapter Two presents shamanic performance as a seemingly eruptive and counter-hegemonic force that transcends the familiar confines of ritual to enact a communal memory and provide a means of engagement with historical trauma and its ghosts. And Chapter Three asks how Nora Okja Keller’s Comfort Woman and Chang-rae Lee’s A Gesture Life exemplify the unsettling power of writing at this intersection of trauma and haunting.
