This paper analyzed the placeness of actual experience and poetic experience by applying the method of place analysis as 'represent space' newly created by the poetic imagination of Park Yong-Rae and sought to reveal the consciousness of the space. Park Yong-Rae's 'represent space' is the personal record rooted in the body by being sensually experienced on a physical basis, which works as a 'mental prototype' and faces the fundamental scene. In addition, the representative space in which the poet's subjective emotions and imaginations are projected revolves into a unique poetic representation space and forms a place identity. The experience of the poetry of Park Yong-Rae is a clear characteristic. The places of poetic material were expressed in his text such as Baekje Historical Site, Buyeo, Gongju, Seohae, Odaesan, Hallasan, Honamsun, Baekgang, Nonsan, Gunsanhang, Chawunsan, Busosan, Gyeryongsan, Gyeongju, etc. However, the overal images represented in 『SSaraknun』,『Gangajipul』,『Bakbal-eui KKotdae, Goong』,『Mun Bada』 converged into the image of hometown aiming for comfort and serenity, which the actual place experience and the object of consciousness which the poet intended were shown different.
The relationship of ‘represent space’ and ‘placeness’ in Park Yong-Rae's poetry can be explained by the representation space of Henry Leppev's, which is newly processed by poet's imagination. According to Basslur, this 'represent space' is transformed by the imagination of the poet and newly created. It has more meaning than the actual place, and ultimately it is the ‘place of memory’ that enables sympathizing sense of prototype. That is, the image processed by the imagination implies the perception of the reality that the poet has about the object, and the image is refracted and deformed to create a new meaning. The poetic imagination is not a representation of a mere external simulation or memory, but a mental activity that is newly transformed and created. Therefore, Park Yong-Rae's 'space' is not an abstract but an inner world created aesthetically by reflecting the poet's subjective mind.
First, it is the analysis of the local space. The color imagination of the poet showed projecting subjective mind harmonizing the lyric world to the color through the sense, and revealed the consciousness of the sensory experience. In addition, there was a community life of family and village people depicted with Pungmul, Chambit, Eullebit, Dorikke, Gomusin, Kkotsin, Namaksin, Sangduggun Yoryung, Hamjibak, Hwaetdae, Jing etc.'Pungryu food' was internalized by the experience of the place, and Park Yong-Rae gave it placeness to determine the temperament and the condition of certain local people.
Second, the declining space was analyzed that was devastated by modernization and industrialization. Park Yong-Rae described the phenomenon of vegetation dying, as well as feral grasses (「Gangajipul」). On the other hand, the negative aspects of modernization and industrialization was represented, in which the fish that were eyelashes of life (「Hwangsan catfish」) and the river which was the stem of life became polluted.. Especially, the 'alienated space' was identified as a poet who voluntarily opted for alienation without adapting to the urban environment and social system. Then, the image that appeared in Baekje 's space appeared as a space to recognize the origin of self-existence and to reflect self-identity.
Third, the inner space representation of the poet 's self-consciousness is a representation of the inner space of self loss and the recovery of self-loss with one body and two faces. In addition, Park Yong-Rae suffered psychological trauma caused by the impact of Hongrae sister's death, and pursued the place by sublimating loneliness into solitude space to overcome it. The vital plants and flowers embodied as sisters are beautiful and pure images, faithfully preserving the memories of happy dreams and appearing as a beautiful garden and haven to lead to tranquility. Also, Park Yong-Rae’s‘represent space’faces hometown loss and Hongrae sister’s death in the process of modernization. His past place experience is recorded in his body, so wherever he goes, it calls his hometown which is a fundamental scene. Therefore, Park Yong-Rae's 'represent space' was an inevitable act to escape the life of an unstable reality, and it was an inner place as a place of new life.
