The Demonstration through the Candle Light(CLD) is the Korean special Phenomenon. The CLD means the Grief for death of Middle-school girl pupils who were murdered by the American Soldiers who are staying in South Korea. The CLD`s subject is not about intellectualist(elite) but about netizens who are not interested in the social problems and the national spirits. But the latter leads the CLD that corresponds to a large scale of the political demonstration. Moreover they claim the Korean-American equal relation, independent relation, and war-opposition. What brings this phenomenon? What is the internal driving force that makes them carry out the CLD? Netizen has the two fold Self and futhermore multiple Self. The former has a concern not only about atomic individual but also relational individual. The relational individual lives in the community. Therefore s/he bears the group identity(collective homogeneity) in mind. The group identity results from the national consciousness and the national self-respect. To be sure, the national consciousness takes the form of unconscious identity and collective unconsciousness. Korea is anxious to keep his national self-respect. But netizen is also anxious to keep his legal rights and intelienable rights. Collective unconsciousness and legal rights are important points.
