AB - Regarding the stories of Avalokitasvara(Guanyin, Gwaneum), which is evenly distributed in various areas of the Buddhist region, there are Malangfu of China and Bodukgaksi of Korea. These two stories have one thing in common: they save the world with beauty. However, studies comparing the two stories are very rare, and this paper is presumed in the first attempt. A separate research of the two stories is also rare, so it is worthy to study. This thesis considered the stories as a theme of Buddhism, ‘以色設緣’. First, it is considered as a Buddhist Legendary Novels(ChuanQi) of by the Malangfu and Bodukgaksi in form. Second, the theme of ‘以色設緣’ is based on the Buddhist scriptures and has regional characteristics in contents. The beauty has attraction and accessibility to achieve its goal of preaching dependent origination(pratityasamutpāda, 緣起). Third, later Bodukgaksi is combined with Malangfu and it has to be complemented by the excavation of materials. I also cautiously raise the opinion that the bride of Bodukgaksi is the wife of Boduk, which is also expected to be complemented by follow-up studies. The stories of Avalokitasvara(Guanyin, Gwaneum) continue throughout the region, because they have the same cultural theme. This thesis demonstrated it with Buddhist theme of ‘以色設緣’. It also revealed the origin and influence of Malanfu, Bodukgaksi, and ‘以色設緣’, and deepened the study on the development of the epic story. In addition, I hope this paper call the public’s attention and reproduce the stories of Avalokitasvara(Guanyin, Gwaneum) as a cultural code.
