A Perception of the Chinese Culture : An Analysis of six Korean’s Travel Writing

In this paper travel writings are treated as a representation and appropriation of other culture by tourists. By analyzing six Korean’s travel writing it reveals that the Korean tourists showed the tendency to admit Chinese culture as an other culture and went so far as to demonstrate their sympathy to the Chinese and belief in the past and present of the Chinese history. And in an understanding of China their viewpoint was filled with the nationalistic emotionalism. Therefore, they remembered the activities of the Korean nationalists in China. But each tourist situation expresses a distinct range of the concerns with difference. What is evident is that the sexual differences is conducive to the heterogeneity of the Korean perception of China. Especially women paid attention to the seemingly trivial affairs such as everyday life of common people and the state of women in China.
