초록

The Korean poetic history has been heavily fond of the aesthetic and artistic avant-garde. As a result, it can fall into the danger of getting unrealistic and escapist. For the literary sense of balance, examination concerning the political avant-garde led by Kim Chiha is necessary as he has brought into focus the concrete living aspects and history of Korea. In this respect, this study aims to highlight the place of poet Kim Chiha as the central political avant-garde pole through the analysis of his life and poetic texts.
In particular, his damsi or narrative poem 'Ojeok (Five Thieves)' brought about one of the greatest writing troubles in the Korean literary history. Owing to the poem, he has been imprisoned, released, under house arrest, and had both a life and a death sentence. As a leader in the struggle against the President Park's regime, he was once in the list of Amnesty International. He even developed new literary forms parodying traditional poetic forms for the revitalization of people's rights and the instillment of people's resistance with democratic desires. Thanks to him, people's art was reborn in music, fine art, and dance.
In addition, his daeseol or big story (as opposed to soseol or short story) is a harmonized parody of traditional Korean pansori, folk ballads, mask drama, and popular songs. It shows such formal avant-garde elements as the humorous representation of repetition and exaggeration, the function of three-dimensional speakers, the partial independence away from organic totality, the overall negation of the established literature and resulting renewal, and the pieces of reality composed of allegory, collage, parody, and kitsch.
What's more, his free poems in later years reveal surrealism. For example, the life philosophy of Donghak or Eastern Studies is portrayed as the fantastic unconscious flow of sudden and ambiguous images. Judging from P. Bűrger's 5 characteristics of avant-garde poems, his poetry is fully faithful and qualified. He even showed some thoughts and forms of native postmodernism.
In conclusion, poet Kim Chiha was unlike most postwar poets who failed to face the reality and adopted the lyrics of escapism and foreign word play. He deserves the title of the central pole in the political avant-garde in the Korean poetic history. He has devoted himself to the anti-dictatorship struggle by reviving traditional folk art as people's consciousness fitting the age.
