The purpose of this thesis is to analyze Choi In-hoon’s “Literature and Ideology” and examine the imagination of Civilization Genetic Information (DNA)’ and the aspects of the evolutionary art theory that Choi In-hoon tried to structure and theorize. Choi In-hoon is actively using the theory of evolution to understand human beings and civilization. With the genetic Information (DNA)’ at the center, Choi In-hoon says that ‘civilization’ is another homeostasis, and the genetic information of civilization is the symbol of (DNA)’. In Hoon Choi's view, humans experience two evolutionary processes: the first is biological evolution, and the second is civilized evolution. Each evolution has DNA and (DNA)’, and humans and civilizations as individual beings evolve by repeating phylogeny. In the process, Inhoon Choi is attempting to establish a core of evolutionary art theory in “Literature and Ideology”. “Literature and Ideology” shows the origin of Choi In-hoon’s art theory at the core, and also suggests the possibilities and limitations of the biological understanding of Choi In-hoon’s literature. Through this study, I was able to reconsider the status of literature as convergence knowledge in the 21st century by understanding the interactions between literature, art, and biology.
