- Abstract
- A thriller is one of the representative genres actively flowed in mainstream literature. The thriller narrative induces consumer to absorption through the feelings of suspense and thrilling. Moreover it expresses the social anger by dealing with the problems of violence, evil, truth, justice and so on. Actually recent novels applied thriller narrative are making attempts to combine features of genre narrative and social subjects. In this way, thriller narrative changes more complicatedly and opens the vision of reality distinguished from the mode of realistic representation.
Ghosts by Kang Hee-Jin and The Bleaching by Chang Kang-Myong include the consecutive murder/suicide incidents. These novels transformed the anger and frustration diffused in the consumption capitalism society and the post-IMF generation into criminal avenges. A by Ha Seong-Ran and Ash and Red by Pyeon Hye-Young changed the narrative structure of thriller more flexibly and expanded the width of meaning they made. Also they bring out the problems sharply about family system, the alternative community, the mode of operation of law-violence, the system of bio-politics etc. Besides they treat also contradiction and duplicity which are being tied in the problems. These novels suggest the possibility of literary adoption of popular genre narrative beyond the tactics of commercialism and storytelling.
