다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper deals with plot of novels written by Kim You Jung. And this paper focuses on open ending of Kim You Jung`s novels. His novels`s open ending creates the effect of ambivalent irony, which is not simple contrast between intentions and results, but reveal contradiction of tenant farming in the Japanese colonial period. The situation of Kim You Jung`s characters of novels is getting worse when we compare ``end`` with ``beginning``. The characters of novels fall over themselves for improving their economic situation, but that situation would not improve absolutely. They were placed in extreme situation, and they do illegal acts, which is steal, gamble, prostitution for getting out from worst situation. But they always failed to escape from poverty because of the barrier of tenant farming in the Japanese colonial period. The women traveler in ‘The traveler of mountains’ gets merry with Duc-Dol, the son of pub, but she got merry already, and had husband. She stoles winter clothes of Duc-Dol, and returns to sickly, poor husband. And Eung-O in ‘The Manmubang’ stole rices that he have cultivated himself, but is not his possession. They violets the laws of Japanese colonialism. But they did those action not for themselves but for others. Therefor their illegal actions is objets of sympathy, not of condemn. The characters of another rural novels drove out Delbyengiee who is wanderer prostitute for family`s living. Even they sold wife, or tried to follow Delbyengiee. Of course they failed and backs to situation of ‘beginning``. Or they betray friends, plow over pea patch, injures himself for taking gold. These novels reveal the fact, that contradiction of tenant farming in the Japanese colonial period devastated not also their economic life but their inner world. The characters of urban novels of Kim You Jung are beggars, hostess of bar, unemployed person. They become lethargic or have a big crush elder women. They reveals ruined urban life, an trend of materialism, chronic poverty. Especially ‘The Blazing Sun’ is embodying the poor husband who is doing best to wife who is dying because of poorness. Likewise the ‘open ending’ of Kim You Jung`s novels show worsen aspects than ‘beginning’. The character of his novels try to get over their difficult position, but their attempt always fail. The open ending of These novels create ambivalent ironic effect. And ironic effect of these novels deconstruct existing morals and persue alternative morals for people class.
