Abstract

The starting point of this study is an examination of the vital role of terrestrial broadcasting in Korean society, where ethnic minorities have increasingly become visible. Korean terrestrial broadcasters' mandate emphasises the broadcaster's responsibility to represent and reflect the range of public opinion and experiences beyond class, age, ethnicity and ideological orientation. The main purpose of this study is to visually examine the means through which terrestrial broadcasting generates discourses of We-ness and Otherness at times of change in the Korean society. The study focuses on prime-time broadcasting news programmes' visual representations of migrants and ethnic minorities.

신자유주의 경제의 확산으로 인해 전세계 인구 이동의 흐름은 급격히 변화해왔으며, 단일민족 국가라 믿어왔던 한국 역시 이러한 흐름으로부터 자유로울 수 없었다. 전형적인 노동력 수출국이었던 한국은 이제 노동력을 수입하는 주요 국가이며, 이주민들로 인해 사회적 지형은 지난 십 수년간 급격히 변화해왔다. 그러나 이에 대한 미디어의 재현은 지극히 제한적이고 정형화되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 주목적은 한국사회의 시대적 변화 속에서 지상파 방송사들이 뉴스 콘텐츠를 통해 이주민들을 재현하는 양식을 영상담론을 통해 분석하는 것이다. 연구결과 지상파 방송뉴스에 재현된 이주민들은 특정한 영상재현 방식으로 담론화되며, 이는 한국인들과의 이항대립을 이루어 그들에 대한 스테레오타입을 확대재생산하는 메커니즘으로 작용한다는 것을 밝혀냈다.
