ABSTRACT

The comparative study of Okwonjaehapkiyeon and Wanwolhoemaengyeon Han, Gil-yeon Okwon and Wanwol have very similar structure, but have many different points that give shape to this structure. Especially these two works show serious differences in the political troubles. First of all, two works show many differences in the point of the basis of family. In Okwon the family can't achieve influence, but in Wanwol the family wield power by the blood relations and so on. In Okwon the hero's family has the only son through three generations, but in Wanwol the family build up the most huge family among river novels. In the next place, ups and downs of political life come up in according to the different basis of family. Thirdly, two works have deep difference in the point of background of age and setting up of antagonistic family. Okwon describes up the political inferiors in origin with shabby and miserable family, but Wanwol figures up the political superiors in origin with the upper classes and prosperous family. Trough these comparison the discussion was possible that one of these two works was created in cope with another work, namely counterwork of another work.
