AB - China implemented Reform and opening-up policy in 1978. Since then, economic development has accelerated with the introduction of Socialist market economy system in 1992. As China rose to the position of G2 in 2010, it became a rich country comparable to the United States. This development in China is an unprecedented achievement in the history of the world economy. However, behind this success, there have also been a number of side effects. Social polarization has occurred due to income inequality. And now, the polarization phenomenon has intensified, raising complaints from Chinese people. The Chinese leadership is implementing various balanced development policies to overcome the polarization phenomenon. But it still hasn't narrowed the gap between rich and poor. Literature also reflects these changes in China’s times and the atmosphere of society. Representative works include Yu Hua(余華)’s novels “Brothers (兄弟)” and “The Seventh Day(第七天)”. “Brothers” was written from the time of the Cultural Revolution and is now showing the mad appearance of Chinese society. “The Seventh Day” uses various events and accidents in Chinese society as the subject of the story. These two novels clearly reveal the gap between the rich and the poor and the inequality that has deepened with the rapid growth of the Chinese economy since the implementation of the socialist market economy system. This paper examined the history of economic development in China, which was built according to the ideology of a socialist country. In particular, we reviewed the process of entering the ‘socialist market economy’ system. And we looked at the Social polarization phenomenon, the biggest problem in Chinese society. In addition, through Yu Hua’s Brothers and The Seventh Day, we looked into the other side of society created by the idea of mammonism and inequality. Finally, through the novel, we examined how mammonism and inequality affect human dignity.
