Kim, Yong-Hwan is a one of the South Korean major cartoonists between 1940s and 1960s. Kim, Yong-Hwan drew a variety of genres from children's cartoon to current-affair cartoon. Furthermore, Kim, Yong-Hwan took the lead in publishing cartoon magazine and newspaper after the Independence, and has been highly appreciated as a pioneer of Korean cartoon. Kim, Yong-Hwan created many works in the fields of illustrations, Oriental painting, history painting, caricature, etc. After going study for painting to Japan, Kim, Yong-Hwan made his debut as an illustrator called Kita Koji in Japan. However, not much is known about his works in Japan, only there is a simple data about his Japan period and some pieces of illustration during Japan years. In this paper, I examined in detail about Kim, Yong-Hwan's work activity in Japan which has been little known in Korea for a long time. I studied on illustrations in magazines and books which he drew in the name of Kita Koji, on the basis of the data of the National Diet Library of Japan. I could know that Kim, Yong-Hwan worked actively in a diversity of publishers and magazines. In addition, I could realize that many magazines in which Kim, Yong-Hwan drew illustrations were very popular ones. This demonstrates that Kim, Yong-Hwan was much recognized in Japan for his talent. However, a large number of Kim, Yong-Hwan's illustrations were published from late 1930s to mid-1940s. This period was the years that Japan concentrated all her energy for World War II. All the publishing were severely censored during this period. A majority of publishing in this period supported Japanese militarism, and glorified Japan's war policy. Kim, Yong-Hwan's illustrations were no exception, too. It was really sorry about his activity during his Japan period. This essay means a lot to a field of cartoon studies in terms of a collection of materials during Kim, Yong-Hwan's Japan period. Besides, I think that henceforth, this paper can contribute to a follow-up study on Kim, Yong-Hwan' work and his broad background.

As manga is a genre characterized by combined use of letters and pictures, visual expression, that is style, is one of the most important representative elements, even beyond the structuring of the story. Shojo Manga (lit. Young girl's Manga) in particular is distinguished by visual style clearly differentiated from other manga genres. Shojo Manga uses a variety of unique techniques that cannot be found in other manga genres. The use of starry eyes in the depiction of the characters, taller than life characters, and the creative use of frames which disregard the traditional square shape are some examples. Therefore, the question arises of by whom and when such visual characteristics in Shojo Manga were created. This paper will analyze the figure of Nakahara Junichi (1913-1983), illustrator of Shojo magazines active between the 1930's and 1950's, and who as it has been stated in previous research, influenced the splendorous illustrations of Shojo Manga. Therefore, I will look for the commonalities and differences between Shojo Manga and Nakahara's oeuvre, shedding light on the origins of Shojo Manga and attempting to theorize the relationship existing between them.

애니메이션 편성시간대를 6시대에서 4시30분대로 옮기려는 KBS의 시도가 업계의 거센 반발에 직면해 일단 무산되기는 했지만, 애니메이션 방영시간의 안정적인 확보를 위해서는 현행 방송법을 개정해야 한다는 목소리가 높아지고 있다. 이를 위해 애니메이션 제작자협회 · 애니메이션예술인협회 · 만화애니메이션학회 · 출판만화협회 · 우리만화연대 · 만화가협회 등 6개 관련 단체와 만화가 등 애니메이션 업계는‘방송용 애니메이션 발전전략 촉구 및 개정을 위한 범 만화 · 애니메이션계 공동대책위원회’를 발족, 애니메이션 발전을 위한 대책 강구에 나서고 있다. 공대위는 지난해 11월 초에는 방송 애니메이션 총량제를 강화한 방송법 개정안의 연내 통과와 방송사의 애니메이션 편성 정책 시정을 촉구하는 집회도 열며 총력전을 벌이고 있다. 하지만 지난해내 입법화를 기대했던 애니총량제는 방송법 개정 지연으로 불투명해진데다 최근 들어 중국 · 일본 정부가 강도 높은 애니메이션 육성책을 추진하고 있을 뿐 아니라 제4차 일본 문화개방도 이어지고 있어 국내 애니 업계의 위기감은 더욱 거세지고 있다. 신성장산업인 애니메이션 산업 활성화를 위해서는 애니총량제 등의 법 · 제도적 장치가 마련돼지 않으면 국내 애니메이션 산업은 더욱 깊은 수렁으로 빠질 것이라 게 업계의 공통된 시각이다.
