문화 콘텐츠로서의 태권도

Abstract

The culture of the 21st century is transformed into capitalism and globalization, forming a culture as commodity value, focusing not only on legitimacy but also on the product value of culture. Taekwondo is also experiencing not only legitimacy but also demonstration and performance for the public. In other words, there are various opportunities to indirectly participate in the past with direct participation and sweat training. In recent years, Taekwondo is being performed in practice, as well as various cultural contents such as literature, movies, media, games, and performances. For this study, the review of books on Taekwondo and martial art was first carried out, followed by a research on soup opera, films, animations, novel and webtoon for Taekwondo people that employ topics related to Taekwondo. Taekwondo in cultural contents is expanding with films such as ‘Best of best’, ‘Almost loves’ and ‘The Kick’, as well as animations such as ‘Robert Tae Kwon V’ and ‘Tae Kwon kid Kang, Tae-Poong’ as well as ‘Kick’ and ‘San Francisco Hwaranggwan’. In the future, Taekwondo will be expanded as its cultural contents, and its role as a part of culture and promotion of health of modern people will increase as well as the meaning of battle which is the basic purpose of martial arts.
