책소개
포스트지구화시대 동아시아는 기억과 정체성을 둘러싼 갈등이 끊임없이 드러나는 정치적 공간이다. 식민, 냉전, 지구화가 중첩된 시간 속에서 다양한 문제들이 맞물리며 새로운 질서를 만들어가고 있다. 이 책은 역사부정과 혐오가 단순한 정치적 술책이 아니라, 사람들의 감정을 조직하고 순환시키는 정동적 힘임을 보여준다. 일본군 ‘위안부’ 문제에서부터 제노사이드 부정, 성폭력 부정주의, 탈북여성 서사, 가난 혐오, 혐중 정서, 반동성애·반트랜스 담론까지, 피해자의 목소리를 지우고 공감과 분노를 선별하는 정동적 기제를 폭넓게 탐색한다. 역사부정과 혐오가 학계, 미디어, 사회운동을 순환하며 글로벌한 정동 네트워크를 형성하는 방식과, 이에 맞서는 대안적 정동 정치의 가능성을 함께 조명한다.

총 9편의 글로 구성된 책은, 동아시아에서 역사부정과 혐오가 어떻게 생성되고 유통되는지, 그리고 그것에 대응하며 새로운 감정의 회로를 만드는 다양한 실천과 사례를 다룬다. 이 과정에서 독자는 피해자의 경험을 지우는 정동과 그에 맞서는 대항적 정동의 구조를 함께 읽게 된다. 이 책은 동아시아의 역사·문화·정치적 현장에 대한 깊은 이해와 동시에, 혐오와 부정의 회로를 전복하고 보다 공적이고 감수성 있는 정동 정치를 모색하는 시도를 담고 있다.

웨스트텍사스대 한민화 교수 “조선학교, 정치 아닌 삶의 공간으로 바라봐야”
Posted by JNCTV | Jul 28, 2026 | 정치

웨스트텍사스대 한민화 교수 “조선학교, 정치 아닌 삶의 공간으로 바라봐야”
-수세대에 걸쳐 언어와 민족 정체성을 지켜온 세계적으로도 드문 사례
-단순한 교육기관 넘어 디아스포라 공동체의 역사와 문화를 잇는 중요한 공간

“조선학교는 정치적 프레임으로만 바라볼 대상이 아니라, 아이들이 성장하고 정체성을 형성하는 삶의 공간입니다.”

재일동포 3세이자 조선학교 졸업생인 한민화 웨스트텍사스대학교 신문방송학과 조교수는 미동부 시각 7월 25일 저녁 7시에 열린 온라인 강연에서 조선학교를 둘러싼 한국 사회의 인식 변화를 역사적 맥락에서 분석하며 “이념적 프레임을 넘어 조선학교를 있는 그대로 이해하려는 노력이 필요하다”고 강조했다.

‘한국 사회가 본 조선학교, 조선학교가 본 한국 사회’를 주제로 열린 이번 강연은 ‘우리학교와 함께하는 동포모임’이 주최했으며, 한국어와 영어 동시통역으로 진행됐다. 강연에는 미주 지역을 비롯한 각국 동포들이 온라인으로 참석해 조선학교와 재일동포 사회의 역사와 현실에 대한 이해를 함께 나눴다.

김미라 씨의 사회로 시작된 강연회에서는 이용식 운영위원장이 환영사를 전했다. 이어 한민화 교수의 강연이 진행됐으며, 한 교수는 자신의 삶을 소개하며 조선학교를 졸업한 뒤 처음 한국을 방문했던 경험을 회고했다. 그는 “일본에서는 ‘재일조선인’으로, 한국에서는 또 다른 ‘동족적 타자(co-ethnic Other)’로 인식되는 경험을 했다”며 “이러한 경험이 정체성과 소속감에 대해 연구하게 된 계기가 됐다”고 말했다.

그는 한국 사회의 조선학교 인식이 시대에 따라 크게 변화해 왔다고 설명했다. 해방 직후에는 민족주의적 관점이 강했지만 이후 냉전과 반공주의의 영향으로 조선학교는 북한과 연결된 대상으로 인식됐고, 1990년대 후반 이후에는 문화 개방과 민주화, 다문화 담론이 확산되면서 생활세계와 교육공동체로 바라보려는 연구가 등장했다고 분석했다.

한 교수는 특히 다큐멘터리 영화 ‘우리학교’를 조선학교를 바라보는 인식 전환의 계기로 평가했다. 그는 “이 영화는 정치적 논쟁보다 학생들의 일상과 학교생활을 보여주며 조선학교를 ‘생활세계’로 이해하도록 했다”며 “가시성(Visibility)을 높이고, 재일동포들의 실제 삶을 한국 사회에 소개하는 중요한 역할을 했다”고 설명했다.

또한 그는 조선학교 교육의 특징으로 공동체 의식과 민족 언어교육, 역사교육을 꼽았다. 학생 간 경쟁보다 협력을 강조하고, 한국어와 민족 정체성을 함께 배우는 교육이 오랜 기간 이어져 왔다고 소개했다.

강연에서는 한류가 재일동포 사회에 미친 영향도 언급됐다. 한 교수는 “한류는 재일동포와 한국 사회를 연결하는 계기가 됐으며, 한국인의 존재를 일본 사회에서 보다 가시적으로 만들었다”면서도 “대중문화의 확산만으로 역사적 이해가 깊어진 것은 아니며 여전히 재일동포 사회에 대한 이해는 부족하다”고 말했다.

질의응답에서는 조선학교를 둘러싼 한국 사회의 이념적 인식과 재일동포 정체성 문제가 집중적으로 논의됐다.

한 교수는 “조선학교 학생들은 한국, 일본, 조선적 등 다양한 배경을 가지고 있지만 학교 안에서는 자연스럽게 공동체를 이루며 살아간다”며 “외부에서 만들어진 정치적 프레임보다 학생들의 실제 삶과 경험을 이해하는 것이 중요하다”고 말했다. 이어 “재일동포 사회도 스스로의 경험을 바탕으로 정체성을 새롭게 재구성하고, 한국 사회 역시 조선학교를 정치적 대상이 아닌 사람과 사람의 만남이라는 관점에서 바라봐야 한다”고 강조했다.

한 교수는 강연을 마무리하며 “수 세대에 걸쳐 언어와 민족 정체성을 지켜온 재일동포 사회는 세계적으로도 드문 사례”라며 “조선학교는 단순한 교육기관을 넘어 디아스포라 공동체의 역사와 문화를 이어가는 중요한 공간으로 이해될 필요가 있다”고 말했다.

Even today, Japan consistently has many young women who willingly get into the porn industry. Some of them have very high-level academic backgrounds and wealthy parents. In Japan, why do even those girls get into the porn industry?

Obviously we can't ask all of them why, but let's ask this woman this time to get some idea of the reasons.

Soooo basically she went into the industry because she wanted to rebel, to break free from the strict standards her parents set.

This is actually very common. But the people who done it simply aren't as open as they do it in Japan.

Parents not letting their kids do anything other then studying really stunts their growth as a person. Kids need to be kids and have other interests other then studying. They don't have to be good at the interest, just have to participate with people outside of their school circle. Obedient children also don't make great employees. Great factory workers. Escaping to porn or anything that doesn't require studying is not unusual around the world. Especially when there is 0 mental health services for these kids to deal with their issues properly.

This is the picture of an extremely repressed, broken individual. She clearly didn't choose this path because of a legitimate desired to do this but rather because of the lack of a proper upbringing. It's clear that she was never given any autonomy in her life up to that point and therefore she decided to rebel by doing the most audacious thing allowed by society.

This is what happens when parents too strictly enforce their own views and opinions on how their child should live their life. The kids grow up having poor relationships with family and don't learn how to interact with other people in their life. Sometimes they also lack the ability to make their own choices because the parents take too much control, and that is terrible! Adults have to make so many important decisions all the time, not teaching a child how to do so can have such devastating effects

I feel very sad for this woman. She put herself in an environment that is exactly what caused her to be broken in the first place. She didn’t know what love was, so she joins the corn industry where there is no love. She felt used and taken advantage of, so she joins the corn industry where her body is being used and taken advantage of. It’s just sort of ironic? contradicting? It just feels like self sabotage. I feel sad for her. It’s like she is digging herself deeper into a hole. There was obviously unhealed trauma that she had which led her to resort to s** work. Moreover, due to how stigmatized mental illness is in Japan, she probably didn’t even feel like there was a way to heal.

Japanese American here, her laugh didn't seem sincere at times; the Japanese phrase would be that her eyes aren't laughing. Maybe she's nervous, not to mean she's camera shy (obviously), but to be speaking about her personal life in such a frank way. I'd feel devastated as a parent, but that's probably how she wanted her parents to feel too.

Kind of wild to think that a virgin guy denying sex could lead to a woman choosing to become an AV actress. You really never know how your actions and words can steer a person's life, or how they affect our own.

Edit: I'm not implying that anyone owes anyone anything, or that he's strange or somehow delusional to turn her advances down, or that he forced her hand into AV somehow. Though let's not forget that he's the one that said "will you let me f*ck you" (that's the nuance in Japanese; ヤラせてくれる？ / Yarasete kureru?), which is why Nobita was surprised by his words in the interview; quite an edgy guy that doesn't want to be edged.

It was a combination of things: the virgin denied her advances, she got curious about AV from him (which she "lost" to), and she despised her parents so she didn't have brakes to stop her.

Most women, even if curious, would stop at the last step. No amount of money or education can save you from an unloving family (which Japan, and Asia in general, has plenty of; family members don't say "I love you" or hug).

I have very negative opinions about all boys' and girls' schools. When a child goes through puberty and their childhood, it's essential to learn how to understand and better communicate with people of the same and opposite sex. All my friends who were girls and guys changed so much in a bad way when they spent some years in them.

It's no wonder she had such a hard time finding a decent guy, as well as keeping a relationship. Parents often push their kids to ignore everything except academic life, but then have the audacity to act surprised when you can't get married, or even get along with the opposite sex. It's much harder to develop healthy standards as well for relationships. I really can't blame her for not having too much interest in dating when the men around her treated her in such a way.

Harsh parenting, difficult childhood, boring schooling, and a society that wants to devour your flesh. Young girls like her are so vulnerable, while there are so many weirdos our there. She is literally abused by the society she lives in. Now, a broken soul, she just drifts through life with the "F it" attitude. What a waste. Is there no real, good man that could love her and bring her happiness? I feel so sorry for her 😔

This is just one in so many cases. Japan has a problem.

Quite simple as to why - in the short term, it's easier.

Easy money or validation in the short term with little prospect long term. but the folk of these last two generations, so far, have never been taught; for ALL their 'education' the importance of long term planning and so in turn are being set up to fail.

Education and aspirations are one thing, intelligence and prospective are another.

I have the same question as you Nobita: Whyyy???? I always knew because they get lured by hosts clubs and go into debt. This video was nice and different- really sad she had to go to a strict all-girls school with no idea how to interact with boys. and also sadly she has low-self-esteem after lots of unsuccessful dating. I can see all the pieces coming together as she told her story - lack of love and attention and society system that caused this. thank you so much for covering

thanks for these in-depth videos nobita! although i believe people should be allowed to choose whatever they want to do (regardless of social pressure), it's pretty clear her whole childhood, family experiences, etc, led her to this field. especially if your childhood is strict/everything is decided and expected of you, being so sheltered makes you gravitate towards what's "taboo" or "weird" from those expectations. i have personal experience with that. my parents were VERY strict, and it just led me to seek out what was "forbidden." you just want out because the strictness is too much. im sure she's way happier doing this than a job her family expected, but i feel therapy will help her out the most. its not a bad thing that she works in that industry, but i hope she can be genuinely happy.

Usually wealthy parents don't make good choices for their children, causing trauma, which later lead these children to make terrible decisions such like getting into the sex industry.

And you can identify this by these children's relationship with their parents and family. If they have a distant and strained relationship, then there was a huge disconnect, abuse, neglected, and trauma.

She sunconsiciosly tried to compansate lack of parental love and attention from unhealthy exteme and weird kind of people which led her to be more dissapointed and being exploited. Eventually she seeks attention from random people on internet in order compansate lack of parental and later sincere love and care of friend or partner.

What I've noticed from this comment section is that women working in the porn industry STILL are viewed as incapable of having agency, and all of their decisions are assumed to be direct consequences of either trauma or abuse.

Watching a movie and thinking "wow those actors are so cool, I want to be just like that!" an incredibly normal reaction that anyone would have. That applies to porn too.

This women was interested in the porn industry and went into it, and now she's happy about where she is. To her it's a satisfying job.

She's educated, had a job, had rich parents, had money. So the usual arguments of exploitation, desperation to put down people working in the porn industry doesn't apply to her. So people are nitpicking her expressions and speech to try and find a way to discredit her decision?. Its pathetic.

She's a well educated woman working a job she enjoys. It happens to be as a porn actress but that doesn't discredit her decision to stay in the industry.

I can't relate to a lot of the things she said, but one thing struck me was her curiosity. She mentioned dating someone outside of the university atmosphere. And then later on with the virgin "boyfriend" who was into AV/porn. And at the end of the interview, she said she wanted to be involved in other ways. It's very much like how mainstream actors and actresses eventually work their way up to becoming directors or screenwriters, or being a part of the studio productions overseeing new movie projects. I think that curiosity is a noble thing to have as a human being. To keep exploring and trying different things, to gain new experiences, and improve processes that have been established for so long.

The virgin guy did a correct call, it's better to fap than to be corrupted by someone like that. What if you catch the feelings and she is in a completely different mental space to you. If you are brave enough you can probably keep it casual, but this is not an easy thing to do with something so intimate because you need to consciously separate sex and love in your mind which is not healthy in the long run, and if you continue with casual after 5+ partners your own mental state starts to degrade, you will find it very difficult to truly love someone because that someone is more or less no different to others you had before (you don't value that new partner and that kills any possibility for love). Our ancestors weren't stupid when they invented marriage, strict social/gender norms and religion, without it the society will collaps in just a few generations.

This is just my opinion, you decide for yourself what is suitable for your life. Dont do this to yourself just to get back to your parents. Because you are the one hurting. If you have childhood trauma try to find areas where you are hurt to heal your inner child. If you want talk to them and tell then how you feel etc. If they listen or dont listen, not what you can control. You decide for yourself what you want for your life. If you dont want to be in toxic family. You dont let them influence you. You can leave to build the life you want. Unlearn and relearn life yourself. Dont be passive and wait for them to scold you etc. You can take initiative let them know you will decide for yourself etc especially when adult. This is taking responsibility to resolve what is in your heart. I know it might not be easy. But it is something you might want to do to heal. Or some people just leave their toxic family. But you decide for yourself what is suitable for you.

You have a good way to produce interviews.

I think this woman spent too much time with the wrong things, when she was young. This may happen to many. Some parents may have limited understanding for one of their kids that is a little bit different.

The parents thought a good school and diligent studying were the most important thing, but this was true only to some people, like her siblings.

For some people it needs much different experiences to understand the world, while the school can't help them to achieve deeper understanding of the self and the social environment. Experiences should be made in freedom and in a rich and very natural environment. It could be a farm and indigenous life, whatever.

If we want to help young women to be happier, we might suggest that they travel a lot to foreign countries, together with different friends, siblings, comrades, gaining experience about companions as well as of other cultures and other social norms and options.

Or, another idea if there is some talent, she might play with a rock band for a couple of years. Nowadays girl rock bands write their own songs, and have many female fans, and they do that also to escape "idol" lives, where they have to be obedient to super strict rules and most of them are simply getting exploited.

As a conclusion, also I think things have already changed a bit, since the days this woman was in school.

Perhaps she is ok with her situation, but for the bigger picture, we might watch the trendings and promote more options for young women so to get a wider education than what most schools are offering. They should enjoy social education that is not only based on norms, but on a paradigm of personal success with their particular own personalities. If the parents cannot do that, some social undertakings that are not that strictly regulated, might help them a leap forward, like playing together with other musicians, or doing some sports, especially team sports.

But probably there are also a number of good monks, that give lessons and preachings in a loving way. I think the secret is a good mixture of everything.

I think the reason behind why she didn't love any of her boyfriends, (and possibly it's the same the other way around, I'm pretty sure they where only interested in her appearance), it's because many people in Japan start dating without even really knowing the other person.

I'm sure not all of them, but I've heard enough stories about this kind of relationship to know a good amount are like this.

I think you should know the person at least for month, discover things about the thrm, their personalities, hobbies, upbringing, discover why they like you and viceversa (if you really like each other), etc.

Even then, it may not work out, but it's much better that way. I think it's wrong to skip all that.

Anyway, I think the root of the problem here was her parents, they shouldn't have pressured her so much, and they should have shown her a better path for her sake, not for what THEY want. Many parents have children because they want them to fully their own desires, like puppets, and they disregard their children desires completely, their confort, happiness and dreams, I hate that.

The child didn't choose any of that, they didn't even choose to be born in the first place.

Why? many women told me they work in sex industry because it's much easier to make money with their bodies than working on regular jobs. Nowadays, everybody has to work hard to earn a paycheck. From software engineers to nurses, all have to work hard for their money. That is why many young women choose to work in sex industry, using their bodies instead of hard labor.

Sex workers make money 10 times higher than regular workers. US currently have 2 millions sex workers; a lot of them are pretty wealthy.

The interviewee is a wonderful and strong-willed person (like many women in the industry), no trouble there.

What's upsetting is the rampant prejudice in the comments. Prudes try to paint her as a liar, gaslight her and say she'll never be happy, make rude speculations about her family etc., completely ignoring everything she says, JUST because they can't digest the idea.

A lot of people who live "right" by conservative bigots end up unhappy, loveless and doing a job they don't enjoy. Good on her for seeing that in her future and making a choice. It takes strength of character do to that.

Ironically close minded people who shame people for sex work, or whose "love" is just emotional blackmail are precisely the ones these kind of girls rebel against.

I think it is time that we addressed these sexual urges of the young children and not be awkward about it. Women like this one have zero encounter with romance, intimacy nor sex before a stranger approached them and introduced them to wide variety of sexual encounters. It is like corrupting a minor to smoke or take drugs or their first time winning their big take in the casino. It is all in the mind.

You people in the comments suck so much! She can do whatever she wants for living. But you guys assume all kinds of bad things about her. Why do you assume she has mental problems just because of her job, how narrow-minded can you be. I thought that by hearing her talk about this would help you empathize somewhat but no still the empty morality judgements. If you can think critically at all, you would realize you’re leaning too much on your prejudices, and not actually taking what she said into account and considering that sex workers are just normal people, like everyone else. Literally nothing suggests something is wrong with them, only your own bias. People are smart, they know have to be happy, to live well, and choose for themselves, they don’t need to be taught by you people. Normal people don’t care so much to judge this stuff like this because there’re things they may not understand but you guys do know everything huh?

You don’t have to respect her job choice because she’s not respecting herself either. By objectifying her body, she’s indirectly objectifying women and woman body. I’ll never respect anyone in that so-called “industry”.

Lack of love from parents seems to be the #1 (and maybe only) reason for a person to do this. Very sad. A waste of a perfectly good person.

one has to wonder if she was s/a by her parents for her to think degrading herself to this extent means nothing to her

Japan sounds so depressing. (I am not judging at all) No country is perfect.

But working in this kind of industry should be the last resort for anyone, it's also very unsafe—especially for a woman.

May God guide her to a right path to happiness ❤

idk what yo'll saying but even though her laugh seems fake in he stories i feel like its and way to just brush the awkwardness off as it now didnt affect her in any way. And i think she likes her job rn because growing up always had to follow what her parents told her to do be it be uni or job and finally when she chose what she liked and was interested even tho i agree that her family didnt love he lead to it she pretty much found what she wanted and seems to like it...

I was saying this to a friend. But you can tell how poor an economy is by how many women voluntarily enter the sex industry. It has been increasing in Japan and from the times I have been there it has become more public in it marketing of it in the red light areas. Going from maybe a sign or a girl in a cute outfit handing out flyers mostly covered and a big red 18. To now there are girls working the windows in bikinis. It is really sad. Nothing wrong with the sex industry just why people choose.

I totally understand your feelings at the start of the video, Why is a very good question..

I mean especially when you are capable of so much more, And you're capable of so much more..

Why would you want to reduce yourself to nothing?

All your self worth, All your value, Gone, Because you just threw it away.

Now belonging to all your viewers and whichever man chooses to use you.

And it sounds like it was difficult for her so I don't know why she would force herself.

Just mindless and stupid.

This distorted view of the world, relationships and her self worth has all stemmed from disrupted/insecure attachment from her parents. How terribly sad
