Abstract

Into the 1990s, there have been changes in perception of pop culture consumers by making a distinction between groups that are active, critical and creative. This study aims to establish a theoretical reasoning for conventions organized and participated voluntarily by fans, which has been especially noticeable in the American subculture for a long time, while investigating how fans and all the parties concerned interact at conventions then to expand the imaginary world. To this end, an analysis has been carried out on the conventions for the particular American TV series of Supernatural. The results show that the reason for this drama series maintaining such enduring vitality as if a living thing is attributable to the special bond of sympathy developed between fans and actors and the following interactions between them. Furthermore, in the aspect of cultural sociology, a piece of work can only be completed through unconstrained interpretation of the work and the resultant recreation by the creator and the receiver, which has been ascertained by this study.

90년대 들어서면서 대중문화 수용자를 능동성과 비판성 그리고 창조성을 갖춘 집단으로 보려는 인식의 변화가 일어났다. 본 연구는 오래전부터 미국의 장르 문화를 중심으로 결성된 팬들의 자발적 행사인 컨벤션에 대한 이론적 논의를 다루고, 컨벤션에서 팬들과 작품 관계자들이 어떻게 소통하고 작품의 세계를 확장해 나가는지를 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 구체적인 사례로 미국 드라마 <수퍼내추럴> 컨벤션을 분석한 결과, 드라마가 하나의 생명체처럼 지속적인 생명력을 유지할 수 있었던 이유는 팬과 배우들 간의 특별한 유대감과 공감, 그리고 상호작용에 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 문화사회학적 측면에서 하나의 작품은 생산자와 그것을 수용하는 사람의 자유로운 해석과 재창조를 통해 완결된다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다.
