This writing is focusing on analyzing two pieces of movie manufactured in liberation period. <Eve of Independence> and <Garden of Rose of Sharon> were manufactured by fitting to the time of founding of govern-ment of the Republic of Korea in 1948 as movie works which have not been studied on a full scale in the meantime. Through these two works, we can guess the form of Korea and the Republic of Korea that movie tried to reproduce after liberation. <Eve of Independence> treats the event to happen with a shedlike warehouse in Kyoungsung on the eve of founding of government of the Republic of Korea in 1948 for a background as silent movie and film drama. Here, social old evil to be represented as Mr. Min is settled as the subject to have to expose in the formation of new Republic of Korea to have to be composed of younger generations. Shedlike warehouse symbolizes the gloomy actuality of Korea. Then, social evil of bad profiteer and smuggler etc. to go in and out this ware-house frequnetly is managed imaginatively through the death of Mr. Min on the eve of founding of government of the Republic of Korea. And, movie is created, so that one may meet the bright morning of founding of new government, by putting up 4 righteous and clean and neat young-sters. In addition, <Garden of Rose of Sharon> shows new imagination in connection with the formation of the Republic of Korea as a movie which recorded the form of Hawaii Diaspora. Movie suggests which con-tents is filled as the new form of the Republic of Korea by getting out of wretched actuality of Korea of the day indirectly, by showing the modern-ized life and rich benefit of Hawaii immigrants documentarily. Two movies are idealizing the form of newly emerging Republic of Korea optimistically. Then, this shows suspicion to eliminate historical efforts groped for establishing new nation phase of the Republic of Korea in confusion and trouble for 3 years after liberation hastily and recognize history with severance. It can be said that this originated from trauma for historical mistake of Choi, In Kyoo and Ann, Cheol Young.
