This is a comparative cultural study on the cultural dimensions of the Korean original film and its Chinese remake film. This research is based on the cultural dimension study by Dutch organizing psychologist Geert Hofstede (1991). In this research I have tried to compare cultural dimensions that are shown implicitly in the original Korean film of "Blind" and its Chinese remake, entitled "The Witness", in terms of the narrative structures.

Analyzes of the research show that the audience can be divided into game fan and non - game fans, and how to reflect the expectation on both sides of the movie is an important factor in making the movie. Also, games of different styles and genres from other themes can not be created in the same way as remixing movies, but flexible diversity and management are needed. Unconditional scenarios of games or game switching of movies can not be popular among the public, and it is very important to analyze specific target audiences.

Today's media environment is becoming very complicated and the trend of media convergence is getting clearer. The convergence of media is the supreme hot issue. In this wave of convergence, there has also been a huge change between movies and electronic games. The remake boom between them showed a tremendous economic effect that can be achieved by exchanging two media of essentially different characteristics. As computer virtual reality technologies evolve, electronic games will provide a virtual world that can satisfy the demands of the visual, auditory, and tactile aspects very real to the public with the Internet. At that time, movies and other media will be thoroughly melted into the virtual world created by electronic games, and they will become an element of the virtual world as those media that exist in the truth world.

This study comparatively analyzed the cultural codes of Korea and Turkey represented in the Turkish film remaking the Korean original film. Although both films follow the narrative of resisting the tyranny of public power based on fatherly love, similarities and differences were revealed depending on the socio-cultural contexts of Korea and Turkey. First of all, Korea and Turkey valued familialism under the influence of Confucianism and Islam respectively. This was represented as a fatherly love, willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of his daughter. Meanwhile, in the Turkish version, there was a difference in the interpretation of the Islamic identity that encompasses the lives of Turkish people and the consequent human sinfulness and death. In the film, the prisoners repented of their personal sinfulness under Islamic doctrine, and sought salvation by activating the muslim brotherhood. This contrasts with the original work, which uses religion as a humor element that highlights the genre characteristics of comedy films, along with the social atmosphere in Korea that allows for the coexistence of various religions. In addition, Turkish one draws on the realistic issues of the military dictatorship of Turkey in the 1980s and the abolition of the death penalty for EU membership, bringing out a film narrative as a drama genre.

영화산업의 메카라 불리우는 헐리우드를 비롯한 세계 영화계는 극심한 소재의 고갈로 비슷비슷한 내용의 반복, 기존의 영화를 리메이크하여 제작하는 관행이 점차 커지고 있다. 이런 현상은 다른 영역의 콘텐츠를 영화로 재가공하는 'One Source Multi Use'의 확산을 가지고 왔는데, One Source Multi Use의 원천 소스로 가장 각광받고 있는 것이 만화다. 미국은 1930년대 초반부터 코믹스라는 장르의 만화산업이 발전하여 방대한 그래픽노블과 코믹스를 원천소스로 '슈퍼맨', '배트맨', '스파이더맨' 등의 시리즈를 내놓고 있다. 한국 역시 많은 수의 만화원작을 보유하고 있다. 이는 한국이 다른 나라와는 확연하게 차이가 나는 만화생산 및 소비시스템을 가지고 있는 것에 기인하는데 그것이 바로 만화가게로 일컬어지는 대본소 시스템이다. 대본소를 통한 만화의 보급은 가공할 만화의 생산을 주도했고 일간지를 통해 연재된 장편만화 역시 다른 나라에서는 찾아보기 힘든 시스템이다. 근래에 이르러 문화산업의 원천소스로 각광받는 만화는 스토리텔링을 근간으로 하기에 다양하게 다른 매체로 전이되고 재생산이 가능하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 단지 만화로서가 아닌 콘텐츠로 활용될 수 있는 만화원작의 필요조건이 무엇인지 분석하고자 한다.

Since the placement of the THAAD missiles has recently cooled the relationship between Korea and China, many Korea-China joint films and entertainment businesses have collapsed. To make matters worse, there is also many opinions for "Korea-China joint film useless" in China through the results of many Korea-China joint films. In my opinion, the causes of failures of the Korea-China joint films are the lack of understanding and experience of Korean filmmakers in the Chinese film industry. So, By examining the history of Chinese cinema in this paper, I want to establish the character formation of the Chinese film industry. And cause a criminal-thriller genre has to undergo more stringer censorship than any other genre, I will introduce the production process of remake of the Korean film . By introducing the censorship method of the Chinese film industry and the actual cases applied, I want to help understand the present status of Chinse film industry. Also, I intend to give some proposals to Korean filmmakers preparing a Korea-China joint film, and express my brief opinion for the development of the Korea-China joint film industry.
