초록

In this paper, a children’s publication, 『Red Korean jacket』 was analyzed, which was published by Shinmungwan in 1912 as the foundation to discuss the formation of modern children’s literature. How the western modern children image was found was noticed and how those images were exposed in our modern history was examined.
Modern children were also finally ‘found’, as they came into modern times. Adults recognized that the child is not an immature existence but a pure existence and also thought they are the existence that should be ‘protected’. 『Red Korean jacket』 is a periodical which aimed at the children at those times. Generally, homogeneous levels of works are included and the active name calling is calls are done for modern children.
But this has the totally different characteristic in that the 『boy』 has called the boy as an object that would save the country. Examining the contents of 『Red Korean jacket』, things are found which can give interests to the children.
Great men or the old stories are completely reorganized and written for the levels of the children. Additionally, humors or quiz which appeared at the corners like ‘laughing’ or ‘one page of drawing’, ‘seeing doctor’ ‘next how?’ became good play things for the children. And, through the corners of ‘What is it?’ or ‘stories’, basic knowledge and the modern civilizations are introduced.
Besides, in ‘enlightening words’, right attitudes of the children are requested through the article.
『Red Korean jacket』 has the meaning in that it is the first newspaper which has aimed for the ‘modren children’. However, in the reason that it is the first trial, modern movement for the children didn’t have the complete system or contents in contents. But, if it is considered that the perfect thing does not exist from the start, it cannot be disregarded that the level is low even though the shape or the content has the insufficiency. And the fact that 『Red Korean jacket』 doesn’t show the active enlightenment movements compared with 『boy』 cannot be criticized as the retreat of enlightenment because its subjects’ ages become low and the level of works are intentionally lowered. On the other hand, those active efforts which try to meet the levels with the thoughts of the specific objects in mind can be seen as one part of the modern movements.
