AB - This study aims to analyze the aspect of psychological warfare that develops between characters in the Korean novel Wanwolhoemaengyeon and to derive its meaning. To this end, it specified its meaning by redefining the concept of psychological warfare and comparing with a war of nerves, as it suggested that the term psychological warfare, which has always been used in actual military strategy, be borrowed from full-scale literary studies. Moreover, to present a specific method of analysis by understanding the difference between psychological warfare and tactics, this study categorizes the elements that constitute psychological warfare in literary works into several items, including the characterization of characters and the personality of targets. Accordingly, as a result of analyzing the psychological warfare in the work, the developments of layered psychological warfare between characters were found in Wanwolhoemaengyeon ― in other words, “Jeong In-jung’s psychological warfare targeting Jeong Yeom” and “Yeo Won-hong’s psychological warfare targeting Jeong Seong-yeom”. These two psychological warfares were developed in the form of including Yeo Won-hong’s psychological warfare as a sub-tactic within Jeong In-jung’s psychological warfare. Through the way the two fathers treat their daughters which was revealed in the aspect of psychological warfare, it could find that the author of Wanwolhoemaengyeon constantly opposes the ideology of the time through the surrounding people and the surrounding narratives and shows narrative developments creating a crack in it, while helping to realize the importance of human nature. This study is meaningful in that it reveals the main driver of the work’s attraction by examining the narrative and the composition strategies of the Korean novel from the perspective of a character’s psychology.
