ABSTRACT

To remain was to die in Korean War. Nevertheless, the trust on the nation and the wrong announcement released by government made people decide to remain in the dangerous region. But, at that time, nobody officially protested against the fact. Additionally, Dogangpa had to be cruel and violent to Janryupa for proving its evacuation to be right or proper choice, because ones who took the lead in punishing Janryupa was the people who had belonged to the Dogangpa which had decided to withdraw themselves, leaving many people in the battle fields. Therefore, it looks as if the confliction between them resulted in one-sided victory of Dogangpa. However, there are scenes that is possible to consciously or unconsciously make any different interpretations from the ostensible victory in the works of writers who was active at that time. They are important bases which can make us infer the situations at that time. While the record regarding a victory is allotment for ruling classes, a loss is for citizens. We can identify the fact in many literatures reflecting the essence of the age because they can sufficiently prove it with only their lives, without any records or data. Therefore, it is significant that we pay attention to the Janryupa's literacy evidences and interpret them, because it is to search for the historical truth through the voice of winners and losers as well as the dead and the living under the circumstances that only ask for the responsibilities for waging war, evading any responsibilities for the loss or damage due to the war.
