ABSTRACT

The purpose of this paper is to prepare a logic that can explain Lee Sang-hwa’s entire poetry. His poetry was often distinguished between the decadent sentimentalism period and the realism period. The early Lee Sang-wha was perceived as a weak poet and the later as a protest poet. However, this dichotomous framework is ineffective. It is desirable to understand Lee Sang-hwa's emotional-oriented attitude as an opportunity for self-realization. The most ultimate ideal for Lee Sang-hwa is the vitality of nature, The vitality that Lee Sang-hwa sought in the categories of individuality, society, and times represents the path of self-consciousness based on the truth of nature. Overall, it amounts to the project of romanticism. Society and communities are part of a phase in which they operate in this process of renewal. Lee Sang-hwa represents an absolute ego that has moved toward the completion of the world about the internal and external aspects surrounding him.
