I found several intrinsic images that appeared repeatedly in Ju Hong Lee`s fairy tale works. These images were formed a kind of the big stream in the whole of his literary works. I divided these archetypal images into the image of fire, water, road, color. I gave the analysis into a trial his representative works that revealed well archetypal image - namely 「Ancient Goryo grandmother`s funeral」, 「Flatfish and globe-fish」, 「Green frog」, 「Echo」. 「Don`t cry yeoniya」. After all, I assert the next significant opinions through comparative analysis. First, generally we can find the four images of fire covering the whole work 「Ancient Goryo grandmother`s funeral」 - a)an aggressive image of fire that can destroy everything, b)a taboo image involving basic symbol that son`s house is on fire. c)the image of eternal reborn between a grandmother`s sacrifice and purified life, d)the evil image in great flames, e)the horizontal image of fire through flames descending from mountain. Second, the image of water is widely contained his two works 「Flatfish and globe-fish」, 「Green frog」. The image of water express the character of Anima that remind us of death and unrunning water plainly in his work 「Flatfish and globe-fish」. We can see that water hold the image of purification through 「Flatfish and globe-fish」`s vomitting of abdomen full of oil and been cake. In 「Green frog」, the image of creation is represented through unrunning water of the pound. Third, the image of road is showed his work 「Echo」. That image is contained of passing ceremony as his elder sister`s wedding and the wrench of parting. And that image is displayed the wandering Dolli`s course that roaming rough mountain with longing his elder sister. The image of road express the birth and parting between the elder sister`s leaving and birth of a calf. And then, We can find well the both Oedipus Complex and the pain of growth. Fourth, the image of color is revealed in 「Don`t cry yeoniya」. Its image in his works consist of red bottle, white bottle, blue bottle. The opening image is showed up a reformation of flesh in a moment when the girl scattered the drug of white bottle to the dead boy. The dead boy was vitalized when the girl scattered the drug of red bottle to him. The color of bottles represent the image of relevant to blood like revival and passion and disorder. Reincarnation was completed as the good images between death and rebirth when scattered the drug of blue bottle. As a result of considering four images, we can understand Ju Hong Lee`s literary works are connected an permanent paradise as circulation from death to birth and vitalization. I agree N·Frye`s opinion that basic intrinsic points of natural human being equal to the exchange of life and death through sacrifice, paradise, birth, revival from above Lee`s works. Accordingly, the four images are used to Ju Hong Lee`s fairy tales works as good samples. The situation of events and characters of his works serve well us universal sympathy and aesthetical value today.
