A Study on the Characteristic Aspects of Korean War Movies made in Turkey -Focus on Problems Associated with War Trauma-

The Korean War is part of the past, but it is also a continuance of the past and its effects still linger in today’s society. We must accept and recognize the importance of continuance, and put our heart and soul into many different fields so that this tragedy does not happen again. In this case, in the study of Korean War movies made in Turkey, a nation that participated in the Korean War, it is very important to recognize and ruminate, considering the Korean War situation. This paper attempted to awaken the social·personal pain and tragic family drama present in the 「Evening Sun」 and 「Bride Ezo」 melodrama films about Korean War that were made in Turkey. These films were about disabled veterans who had wounds and were still suffering the effects of the Korean War, along the sufferings of their families and loved ones after the war. The scenes in 「Evening Sun」 and 「Bride Ezo」associated with Korean War are brutal. The destructive scene does not come out in addition to the scene where the main character looks back on the battle. In the movies about the Korean War, they go on out of stage but the war is used as a fact that changes the future of the characters. 「Evening Sun」 is about war veteran Nazmi whose life was affected by the Korean War. He became disabled and he was afflicted with heart disease due to the trauma. This movie is based on the novel with the same title written by a famous Turkish novelist. It is almost the same as the novel but the only difference is the main character appears as a war veteran of the Korean War and the disabled veteran’s experiences after the war are the basic setting of the beginning and development of the movie. 「Bride Ezo」 has artistic value and popular appeal, so it has been remade three times with the same title. This movie is about one woman whose husband got sent to the Korean War and died. In other words, this material is about a woman who is a war veteran’s wife who got separated from her love because of the Korean War, and after she killed herself from experiencing trauma indirectly. If we take a broader view, it can be said that the film focuses on the tragedy of a family that has been shattered by the Korean War. The Korean War movies made by Turkish melodrama all have something in common: they are based on the love between men and women, war trauma and the aftereffects. We can see that war is not just a conflict between nations but also a tragedy involving individuals and families.
