Kim Myeong-sun, a pioneering Korean female writer
김명순, 국내 최초 여성 작가
Her literary pieces as one of the first prominent modern writers in Korean literature blazed a trail for the birth of female authors.
Diverging from the mainstream literary society, Kim Myeong-sun’s unique voice in her pieces shed light on people who were oppressed on the basis of their gender and social status. She refused to back down from the patriarchal system that stigmatized her as a rape victim and the daughter of a gisaeng and concubine. Rather, she held up the pen to fight against such stereotypes. Here, she was resolute that no one but her would dictate her life as she weaved her diverse narratives. Indeed, Kim Myeong-sun spoke the truth, starting with Mysterious Girl about a young lady whose obscure past stirs up mystery, Seonrae about self-reflection and growth, When Looking Back, where a woman’s desire for free love clashes with the oppressive social system, Tan-sil and Ju-yeong, an autobiographical story on the struggles of a rape victim, and her poems on nostalgia. Such authentic voice of hers was reborn in the edited Korean pieces and first-ever translated English works.
한국 문학에서 첫 근대 작가 중 하나로 손꼽히는 김명순의 문학 작품은 이후 수많은 여성 작가의 탄생을 열어 주었다.
주류 문학사에서 벗어난 김명순의 작품에서 우러나오는 고유한 목소리는 젠더와 신분에 따른 억압을 받아 왔던 여러 사람들의 처지를 조명하였다. 김명순은 기생과 첩의 딸이라는 혈연과 성추행 피해자로서 가부장적 제도로부터 받은 오명에 굽히지 않고 펜을 들어 사회의 고정관념에 맞서 투쟁하였다. 다양한 이야기를 펼치면서 자신의 삶은 자기만의 지휘 아래 이어 나갈 것이라는 꿋꿋한 의지를 품었다. 김명순은 어린 소녀의 가려진 과거의 미스터리에 대한 「의심의 소녀」, 자기 성찰과 성장에 대한 「선례」, 자유 연애의 갈망과 억압적 사회 제도와의 충돌이 어우러진 「돌아다볼 때」, 강간 피해자의 시련에 대한 자전적 소설 「탄실이와 주영이」와 향수의 감정을 다룬 시를 통해 진실을 말하였다. 이러한 김명순의 진정한 목소리는 이번 편역과 첫 영문 번역 작품에서 재탄생되었다.

L'œuvre littéraire de Kim Myung-soon, l'un des premiers écrivains modernes de la littérature coréenne, a ouvert la voie à la naissance de nombreux écrivains féminins.
La voix unique du travail de Kim Myung-soon, qui s'est éloignée de l'histoire de la littérature courante, a mis en lumière la situation de plusieurs personnes qui ont été opprimées par le sexe et le statut. Kim Myung-soon a lutté contre les stéréotypes de la société en soulevant son stylo sans céder à la stigmatisation qu'elle a reçue du système patriarcal en tant que victime de ses liens de parenté et de harcèlement sexuel. Au fil de diverses histoires, il avait la ferme volonté de continuer sa vie sous sa propre direction. Kim Myung-soon a dit la vérité à travers "La fille du doute" sur les mystères du passé cachés de la jeune fille, "Le Précepte de l'auto-réflexion et de l'épanouissement", "Quand on regarde en arrière", un roman autobiographique sur les épreuves des victimes de viol. Cette véritable voix de Kim Myung-soon est née dans cette traduction et la première traduction anglaise.

Kim Myeong-sun, une écrivaine coréenne pionnière
Kim Myung-soon, la première école du pays
Ses œuvres littéraires, l'un des premiers écrivains modernes éminents de la littérature coréenne, ont ouvert la voie à la naissance d'auteurs féminins.
S'écartant de la société littéraire dominante, la voix unique de Kim Myeong-sun dans ses pièces éclaire les personnes opprimées en raison de leur sexe et de leur statut social. Elle a refusé de renoncer au système patriarcal qui la stigmatisait en tant que victime de viol et fille d'un gisaeng et d'une concubine. Elle a plutôt braqué la plume pour lutter contre de tels stéréotypes. Ici, elle était déterminée à ce que personne d'autre qu'elle ne dicte sa vie alors qu'elle tisserait ses divers récits. En effet, Kim Myeong-sun a dit la vérité, en commençant par Mysterious Girl à propos d'une jeune femme dont le passé obscur suscite le mystère, Seonrae à propos de l'auto-réflexion et de la croissance, When Looking Back, où le désir d'une femme d'amour libre s'affronte avec le système social oppressif, Tan-sil et Ju-yeong, une histoire autobiographique sur les luttes d'une victime de viol, et ses poèmes sur la nostalgie. Sa voix authentique renaît dans les œuvres coréennes éditées et les premières traductions anglaises.

“Okay, where was the gentleman coming from?” As the mother of a lass was quite farsighted, she said, “He pressed his eyes against the pitch-black thing at the second floor of the towering house, looking…….” The foreman tilted his head once again. After a long time, as if he had at last resolved the mystery of many years, he said, “I get it. Beom-nae is baby Gahee, the birth-child of director Cho’s wife who committed suicide in spring.” As if everyone heard something terrifying, their eyes widened. Letting out a deep sigh, the village foreman cried out, “Pitiful child!”

“You have a lot you could eat in the living room. Tell your mother to give them to you” and appeased Tan-sil. Yet, Tan-sil shook her head and smiling sweetly, she said, “I’m scared of mom.” Her father inevitably pulled out the money from the pouch, gave it to the servant boy so that San-wol wouldn’t know and told him to buy something for Tan-sil. As the wealth of Kim Hyeong-woo’s house grew and San-wol’s squandering increased, the bond between Tan-sil and her mother became gradually thinner. That was because the more Tan-sil made high achievement in her school academics, the more she received the lesson that the prosperity of the world was futile, that serving as someone’s concubine was good for nothing, and that gisaeng was like the devil.

“Okusan, Okusan (Japanese word respectfully referring to Madam)” and lowered their heads. Only having heard of such, the merchants looked down on her even more for being a Japanese woman that lived with a Joseon man, but after meeting her, they ended up bowing to her. Also, in the beginning, when the Joseon students who came to Tokyo to study abroad only heard of such, they said, “What would be distinguished about a woman married to a good-for-nothing Gil Cham-ryeong?” and after carelessly gossiping about her, as their friends complimented her so much, they were driven to visit Gil Cham-ryeong’s house and upon coming back, they chimed together in praising her to the skies, “A woman is of use when she’s a Japanese. Eh, what are they Joseon women? They’re in such a foul state and besides, how stiff they are”

To me, Seonrae is the only one that is beautiful. It is just that Seonrae is the only woman with vigor. Through the things of this world that inexhaustibly flow and through every flowing tune, I envision only Seonrae. Everyone, it is when a person forgets all of one’s selfish interests and desires that with fairness in mind, one could beautifully compliment even one’s enemy to no end. Seonnyeo, which is a common name in the vicinity of Pyeongan seems to have been rolled and modified to Seonrae for it to sound good to call in Japanese.
