ABSTRACT

The main goal of this paper is to examine in terms of work theory that Singyehujeon was created through the epic variation of Kimhakgongjeon. To this end, the plots and narrative characteristics of Kimhakgongjeon and Singyehujeon, and the principle of the narrative and the correlation between the two works were reviewed. Based on this, the value of the two works and the significance of literary history were pointed out. First, Kimhakgongjeon and Singyehujeon have homogeneity in major plots, but the distinction between the two works has expanded by using auxiliary plots in Singyehujeon. If the former is a single plot that secures the narrative portion through the enlargement of the scene, the latter is a multiple plot that satisfies the narrative portion through pixel borrowing. If the former blocked the variation at the inflection point of the narrative to become a single plot, the latter proceeded with the variation at the inflection point to have the editorial narrative character of the plural plot. Second, through the narrative principles of Kimhakgongjeon and Singyehujeon, the problem of the precedence of creation was confirmed. Kimhakgongjeon is a Korean novel based on the existing narrative. Therefore, the circular narrative worked with centripetal force, so the expansion of the narrative did not occur. On the other hand, Singyehujeon borrowed various existing pixels with the addition of an auxiliary plot, and centrifugal force worked importantly. Therefore, it is understood that Singyehujeon, which adds a commercial character, was created in the simple narrative Kimhakgongjeon. Third, the value of the two works and the significance of literary history are noteworthy. When the two works were built, new-style novels appeared and were competing with classical novels. Then, a modern novel that surpassed these two appeared and tried to find a new way out. It is a group of novel works based on Chuno-narrative that can confirm such changes in detail. In other words, they include “Kimhakgongjeon," which is woven into a single plot using traditional narratives, ”Singyehujeon," which changed it from a commercial purpose to a stratified plot, and "Tangeumdae," which was recreated by changing the novel technique based on them. Therefore, it can be seen that they are a useful group of works to track the flow of Korean novel history. In this regard, it is worth noting their novel value and the significance of novel history.
