This article examines how Kim Yong Ik’s fiction organizes identity, memory, and diaspora through a spatial poetics that shifts around his 1975 naturalization as a U.S. citizen. Reading early homeland texts—“Till the Candle Blew Out,” The Happy Days, “From Here You Can See the Moon,” “The Smuggler’s Boat”—alongside later U.S.-inflected works—“They Won’t Crack It Open,” “Translation President,” “American Love Song,” “The Sheep, Jimmy and I”—I argue that Kim’s writing moves from topophilic mappings of Tongyeong to liminal, often topophobic American and Americanized spaces in Korea. Drawing on Tally’s literary cartography, Bachelard’s poetics of inhabited/felicitous space, Westphal’s geocritical emphasis on geocentered, boundary-crossing reading, and lifespan writing research this study treats naturalization as a crucial hinge that reconfigures Kim’s available genres of place and movement. In the pre-1975 corpus, Tongyeong appears as lieu de mémoire and stabilizing home-space; in the post-1975 corpus, bus depots, camptowns, modernized bustling cities, and suburban interiors become contested thresholds where diasporic selves are negotiated “in between.” By tracing how Kim’s plots function as maps that sequence thresholds, edges, and returns, this article shows that spatial form is central to his representation of diasporic consciousness and offers a spatial reading of his work that connects Korean American literary concerns with the perspectives of literary geography and geocriticism.
