Abstract

This article introduces the special forum on representations and transnational reception of Squid Game. The purpose of the forum is to draw together two groups of scholars into dialogue. The first are Korea experts in communication and cognate fields, who consider the politics of representation in the show against the backdrop of neoliberal capitalist precarity, and the second are scholars of audience reception, who point to the ways Squid Game’s overseas reception is marked by power—hegemonic power that reifies dominant ideological meanings at the site of reception and resistive power for marginalized groups at the site of reception, who produce Squid Game-related paratexts to imagine inter-racial, affective connection.

本文介绍了关于鱿鱼游戏的表述与跨国接受的专题论坛。论坛的目的是吸引两组学者进行对话。第一类是传播学和相关领域的韩国专家,他们在新自由主义资本主义不稳定的背景下考虑节目中的代表性政治;第二类是观众接受的学者,他们指出《鱿鱼游戏》的海外接受方式以权力霸权的力量为标志,这种力量在接受现场将主导的意识形态意义物化,在接受现场对边缘群体的抵抗力量。他们制作了《鱿鱼游戏》相关的文本来想象种族间的情感联系。
