Jeong Woo-rak: The power of contradiction

Water is the source of all things, so it is not bound by time and space. Korean literature, which appears as a major subject throughout the entire history of literature, and in the course of the Old Testament and Korean literature and the classics and modern literature. Life without water is unimaginable, so writers naturally have to water their work. This book dealt with the imagination of water in Korean literature. The writer notes the paradox of the water image in Korean literature and sees it as a ‘contrary unity by the grand conglomerate.’. The theory is that they compete and cooperate because they are different. But the fact that it is invulnerable is ‘ grand representation. ’. This is in agreement with the traditional sexual term 'division.'. The work is highlighted with a perception of the quay that goes back to its source, and as it flows into the sea, it meets with a variety of reality and becomes a fountain. But the individual as a ‘ fountain ’ again includes the universal of ‘ this, ’ maintaining a ‘ contradictory unity. ’. This is a colorful fact in Korean literature. In Korean literature, water comes consistently in terms of the personal affairs of the subject, representing the entire life - style of human birth, life, death and rebirth: mildness and ‘ violence, ’ ‘ break ’ and ‘ duration, ’ 'tone,' 'want,' ‘ desire, ’ ’ ‘ iconocrat, ’ and'realism.'.
