In 1950s. the Korean War was ended and started the confusion and disorder within the country led many people to corruption and fighting for power. Many people read serial novels with concern of popularity and common custom in newspaper. In 1950s. Mrs. Jang Duck Jo wrote 5 Novels in `Daegu-Maeila Press. In general many seriel novels have exiting stories through newspapers, these are sexual love discription between men & women and patternised common love sense. I analysed these novels in the view of popular love pattern and love conclusion. One of them was called Jade and it was the story about a woman that was tempted by a rich man to become his mistress and live with him. But the lady fought the temptation and continued to live the life she desired, not the one that the man desired. She has a high standard of morality about self-control or Self-ideal. I called it a good self-recognition. Three of 5 novels, (The Women of Middle-30s years), (the Shape of Woman). and (The Current Flows Upriver), are the long storiesa bout women that have adulterous affairs but their fates are all different. One ends with the relationship being exposed, another ends with the woman dying and the third ends with the woman being involved in a gun accident. I called them sensual love. The final novel is called (The Evening Bell Cries) and is a love story of true love. This one tells of a man and woman in love and the man has an adulterous accident and becomes handicapped but the woman continues to love and take care of him. A story of this true kind of love called Agape Love. I called it mental love. These 5 novels of Mrs. Jang Duck Jo were shown the shape of love triangle after the Korean war. These were a true reflection of women`s lives having to live in adultery, a time of corruption and money yielding power, but also one that true agape love still existed. These novels appeared serielly with popular concern. As a result, Mrs. Jang Duck Jo was a writer of popular love story maker in 1950s.
