Abstract

This article tries to extract the origin of the vagueness of the field of design in museum display. Here the author picks up the exhibition "Seoul Style 2002" as a case of this analysis. The author tries to extract the origin of the vagueness by means of analyzing the discourse about the misreading by the visitor. The psychoanalytic theory is tried to refer to the discourse analysis. According to the results of the analysis; (1) The field of design is extended all over the object of the display. (2) While the field of the researcher symbolizes the portion of the object of display, the field of design isolates the same portion. (3) Therefore the origin of the vagueness of the field of design is in the psychoanalytic structure of this exhibition.
