New women in Korea and Turkey who set up both traditional Confucian and Islamic order were compared with each other on the subject of marriage and love which cope with traditional moral values. Their discourse about sexuality has to be understood in collusion with the formation of the subject of Modernization. We can recognize that those women really tried to re-make modernization itself and the image of men with the androcentric ideology in Islamic and Confucian culture. It is very significant to compare how the New Women in Korea under the Japanese colony and Alafranga women in the period of the Independence War of Turkey coped with patriarchal system. This is also meaningful because they were subject of the discourse colonization and modernity. The appearance of New Women and Alafrange women has to be understood in collision with modernity. Their thought about marriage romantic love and sexuality was an expression of individual desire as a subject of modernization for the duration of the forming of modernized women (society). These women could be eliminated from the androcentric society or women of debauchee. It could be happened in the background of nationalism power. Their thought and style of marriage and love played a big role in the move towards Modernization as a subject and also their discourse on sexuality took an important role in elevating women`s status so that their existence could be re-illuminated. At the same time the reason of their failure has to be discovered in the relation of nationalism power in modernization project.
