초록

The movie 'Burden' deals with racial hatred based on a true story. It is a movie that shows how a young man who belonged to the KKK group overcame racial hatred. This paper examines the characteristics and formation process of disgust through the movie "Burden," and analyzes how disgust is maintained and conveyed. Furthermore, it is looking for ways to move beyond feelings of disgust to the value of social solidarity. First of all, disgust is a social phenomenon. Second, at the personal level, the cause of disgust is not the object of hatred, but the subject that hates it. Third, at the social level, disgust appears as a result of a negative response to the anxiety produced by 'pluralization'. Disgust can be said to be an attempt to reveal one's identity through a sense of superiority over others. Fourth, disgust works through the history and customs of the past. Fifth, the overcoming of disgust begins with the cracks of a fixed frame of perception. Communicating with others and sharing experiences becomes an opportunity to transcend a habitual frame of perception and a fixed self. Sixth, the genesis of a new value requires 'the recognition of the other'. Social solidarity can be realized when we can confirm that we needs each other to realize a common goal. For this, we need an attitude of acknowledging the other. The life of Burden, the movie's protagonist, illustrates this process well in relation to disgust.
