Abstract
현재 진행되고 있는 북-미 협상에서 미국이 북한에 지급할 보상의 개념과 그를 지칭하는 용어는 비교적 뚜렷하게 구분되는 세 단계를 거치면서 정립된다. 제3기에 해당하는 2018년 6월 이후 용어는 ‘security guarantee’, 객체는 DPRK로 공식화되는 것을 협상 당사국 및 관련국 고위인사들의 발언에서 확인할 수 있다. 그렇다면 한국 언론은 그동안 협상 당사자들이 사용한 이 용어를 어떻게 보도했는가? 원발언에 없는 ‘체제’라는 개념을 임의로 덧붙인 보도가 많다는 점에 주목해 24개 주요 중앙지, 경제지, 방송사의 보도 패턴을 분석했으며, 특히 제3기 외국 고위인사들의 ‘security guarantee’라는 발언을 인용해 보도한 기사들을 자세히 살펴본다. 또한, 외신 보도와 비교해 인용의 정확성을 상대적으로 평가한다.
What is it that the United States is supposed to provide to the DPRK in the context of the ongoing negotiations on denuclearization? A thorough review of the statements of the important policymakers involved in the negotiation process reveals that the concept, as well as the term that refers to it, has developed in three relatively clearly demarcated stages over the past two years. In the third stage, which corresponds to the period after June 2018, virtually all the parties involved in the negotiations settled on the term “security guarantee” with the DPRK as the object. How, then, have the South Korean news media reported this term? This article reveals how it systematically distorted a key term in the ongoing negotiations by systematically inserting the term “regime” as the object “security guarantee”. Particular attention will be paid to critically analyzing patterns of news reportage that cite the term “security guarantee” included in the statements of key foreign officials during the third stage.
