This thesis is Kim Guyong's Poetry in 1950. Kim Guyong's work shows complex motif not only theme bases on 1950's Korean society like as war, prostitution, starvation but also existential problem like imprisonment division of subject. Accordingly, Kim Guyong's Poetry can't estimate division into two parts called "Modernism and Realism"
This discussion can be divided three parts. First, his works in 1950 are prose poem. His prose poem characterize fragmentary description. On his prose poem, a dead thing or emotion put a subject of sentence. This trait means that the subject like human being in his poem can't control world. The other is superior being which dominates and forms the subject.
Second, in poem subject is skeptical about identity. Especially, mirror image and shadow image symbolize duplicity of self and deconstruction of self. This poem shows that self don't exist fixed substance.
Third, A prose which is composed fantastic narrative represent aesthetic modernity supremely. These poem are expressed intermixture between poem and narrative.
