In this essay I inquired into the therapeutic properties of Korean shaman myths. They brought considerable changes on my life. I could realize my own mental problems and adjust them while I was writing about shaman myths. I trust in the therapeutic power of Korean shaman myths. I think the therapeutic power of shaman myths originate in the literary characteristics as follows : (1) Shaman myths reflect one`s life in archetypical mode. (2) They disclose one`s hidden mental problems straightforwardly. (3) They sublimate the problems by the manner of affirmation and tolerance. (4) They exercise continuous influence over one`s spirit. I believe they could be applied to literary therapy variously and effectually.
