영문 초록

This paper aims to examine the origin of cultural film and theformation of its concept in the face of the enforcement of film policy inimperial Japan and colonial Korea. As this paper focuses on, theterminology of cultural film was not only the outcome from anambivalent project which imperial Japan tried in both imperial Japan andcolonial Korea before 1945, but also the fruit of the colonial modernitywhich colonial Korea received as re-translated from Western Germany viaJapan. This equivocal term of cultural film and its difficulty to define hadbeen a problematic post-colonial issue which continued from the colonialperiod to post-war and even to the first enactment of the Film Law inJanuary, 1962 in South Korea. The cultural film originates from ‘Kulturfilm’ produced by WesternGerman UFA (Universum Film AG) including Wege zu Kraft undSchönheit (Golden Road to Health and Beauty) (1925), which imperialJapan imported and translated. It was the import and release of a UFAKulturfilm by Towa Corporation around 1936 that had a great influenceon Japanese society. And the terminology of cultural film which imperialJapan translated to started to be used in colonial Korea as itself. Thisterm became influential to the extent that it was to be legislated in theFilm Law in Japan in October, 1939 and in the Chosun Film Regulationin August, 1940. The cultural film was confirmed by ‘approval’ of Minister of Culture and Education in imperial Japan and Governor-General of colonial Korea in colonial Korea. Moreover, its way ofpractice was exposed as ‘compulsive screening.’ The cultural filmreceived attention as ‘enlightening propaganda film’ which “plays a veryimportant role of instructing our nation in how to accomplish our missionof the Greater East Asia War,” as Mihashi Aiyoshi, a civil servant forsocial education of the Ministry of Culture mentioned
