This paper focuses on the Kimun of Kwon Sub and Yoo Kyung-jong in the late Choson dynasty. I tried to analyze the backgrounds and characteristics of their writings, named Mongki(夢記) and Uiwonji(意園誌). These two articles are about imagined space, and drawings about these articles followed up. So that there are enough reasons to arouse researchers’ interests. Both Kwon Sub and Yoo Kyung-jong were marginalized intellectuals, while they belonged to different faction. And they lived comfortably as they were well off both economically and culturally. Kwon managed several number of manor, and Yoo was one of famous book collector at that time. And they received the benefits of senior scholars. Therefore, they could realize the worth of literature and arts from their early life, and they enjoyed their privileges. They wrote their desires what they couldn’t achieve in their real life through writings. They could solve their realistic limit by writing articles. This attitude is totally different from earlier writings.
