This article analyses the North Korean TV drama Hannah's Echo (Hanna-ui Meari, 2002), which was produced following the signing of the North-South Joint Declaration on June 15, 2000. This series dramatizes the lives of Gang Gyu-chan, chairperson of the Jeju Island branch of the Workers’ Party of South Korea, and his wife Go Jin-hui, director of the women’s division of the party. In the early 1990s, Go Jin-hui’s legacy was revived in North Korean novels and television drama to reinforce North Korea’s ideology of self-reliance and bolster public confidence in achieving autonomous reunification. This paper analyses how Hannah's Echo contributed to the construction of North Korean unification discourse, focusing on the representation of female heroines in North Korean popular media.
