영화 ＜천당의 밤과 안개＞가 중국을 응시하는 방식에 대한 고찰

초록

This writing investigated how aesthetic form contains life and existence of a thing pictured based on ethical view and cultural imagination through a film Night and fog in Zona. To this end, first of all, the author looked into why Korean film critic and director Jung Sung-il chose Chinese documentary filmmaker Wang Bing and explored process of making film by Wang Bing. And through films made by Wang Bing in pursuit of cinema verite, the thesis studied what cultural implications Chinese contemporary reality and daily lives of Chinese ordinary people have. In addition, the author discussed what ethical vision the ‘performative documentary’ Night and fog in Zona suggests in encountering unfamiliar other persons in the global era. It can be said that Night and fog in Zona is a film that provides ethical vision about meeting with the others through emotion between a director and a thing pictured. This is because we can reflect how we should set distance between I and the others, what kind of ethical imagination should be driven to feel non-visible existence of the others. This reflection is based on esthetics of waiting to contain times of characters shown on the films, and attitude towards film where Jung Sung-il deeply saw a thing pictured as it was, but he did not depend on a structure to see a thing pictured.
