This paper analyzes the postcolonial society of Taiwan and South Korea which were under the domination of the Cold War system and neo-colonialism, and takes the interaction between the experience of marginalized others and the formation of urban space as an intervening position. With the rise of neoliberalism in the 1970s and with the subsequent collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, capitalism seemed to have triumphed across the board. While Taiwan and South Korea are in the era of authoritarianism and the situation of new imperialism, the development of postcolonial cities is full of oppression and contradiction. Since the 1970s, both the cultural turn in geography and spatial turn in social science have gradually strengthened the construction of society and spatial meanings. Especially combined with the critical viewpoints of Marxism, it brings out the discussion on the relationship between capitalism and urban space, social process and the spatial form. Space intertwines daily life, becoming an element for people to describe, perceive, analyze and evaluate things, and also as an order to limit everything we have. It prompted me to think about the definition of the city, and how to define the urban issues in each era? This article takes the 1970s as a turning point in the development of postcolonial cities in Taiwan and South Korea, focusing on Huang Chun-ming’s “The Taste of Apple”, “I Love Mary” and Jo Se-hee’s “A Dwarf Launches a Little Ball” and analyzing how the authors describe the Other, and then reinterprets the perception and identity of urban space under the development of industrialization, looking for the social formation extended from the life field in the text and the textual punctures it refers to, and also focuses on the writing strategy of the interaction with characters’ mobility and space of physical and spiritual: treating the text as a mirror, the space behind the mirror reflects the visibility of the Other, allowing the Other to look at themselves again and reconstruct the subject where it is. |
