How do we understand Wintry days of Kim Jeong-hui? According to The pine tree of Wintry days and The Allegory of the artist given to it, Wintry days can be understood in three ways. First is the Li sang-juk's unchanging integrity in four season constancy. Second is the Kim Jeong-hui's stiffening spirit lived in exile in Jeju Island and kept his chin up in the difficult circumstances and pressures. Third is the friendship with whom Kim Jeong-hui and Li sang-jeok could join, and the expectation and hope for the future due to it. This thesis is to look at them in relation to the style of painting, Three friends of winter, The supine Pine, Two pine trees. Especially, to analyze closely the close relationship between Wintry days and Two pine trees has not been mentioned so far. Two pine trees in front of a thatched cottage with a bleak atmosphere is to symbolize the expectation and hope forward Great wealth and abundance that Kim Jeong-hui and Li sang-jeok will share their life and overcome with the hard and difficult circumstances. Such attempts for Wintry days will provide a new understanding of Wintry days.
