The purpose of this paper is to study the inner world of Yu Chi-Hwan reflected by all his poetry focusing on placeness. Understanding the placeness and the meaning prominently contained in Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry and establishing his unique inner world as well as its structure will be an important work for ascertaining his poem world. In order to achieve this purpose, place theory proposed by Edward Relph was quoted. The meanings described below was obtained by analyzing placeness of Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry which is divided broadly into placeness of Tongyeong symbol and placeness of Manchuria.
The first one is the placeness and the meaning of Tongyeong symbol. Yu Chi-Hwan often uses Tongyeong(hometown) as compact symbol of archetypal place. Once again, Tongyeong is symbolized by sea. The replaced place method that brings sea to mind from completely different places proves that the place identity for Tongyeong operates unconsciously in the inner side of the poet. The archetypal place which is accepted as real sense of place in the inner side of the poet works as criterion for judging self-identity according to whether he is placed inside sea or not.
Also, Tongyeong connotes hometown as birth place and appears as symbol of place showing desire for return to ideal world. The placeness of Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry is composed of binary oppositions as its basic structure and this is utilized as a poetic device to highlight the semantic content of ideal world. As being placed into deeper inside of sea, the method of using much bigger echo of inner self is taken, whereas the characteristic that poetical topics such as sadness, loneliness, futility and so on become weaker is apparent. The poet’s feeling enters more perfect inside, more excessive situation is shown. This is because the inner side of Yu Chi-Hwan tries to unify or equate it with place.
The second one is the placeness and the meaning of Manchuria symbol. In Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry Manchuria(place away from home) is typical place representing loss of place. Once again, Manchuria is symbolized by wilderness. The wilderness acts as a place cracking the life of stranger who cannot put down roots and causing anxiety. The poet likes to use a method substituting place image of wilderness with that of sea in order to reveal the meaning of wilderness. While sea is the place permeating unconsciously the inner side of Yu Chi-Hwan, wilderness shows the feature revealing its real intention through discrimination with Tongyeong.
Also, Manchuria is the place where the lack of existence is felt keenly as the place of escape. The fact that wilderness commands escape shows that Yu Chi-Hwan recognizes Manchuria as a repressive place or a prison. It can be said that the surface meaning of escape involves dash for hometown, whereas the deep meaning is power making him oriented towards existence by feeling keenly the lack of existence.
This study on the place has great significance and value in the view point of reinterpreting Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry. It may be added that approaching Yu Chi-Hwan’s poetry with various methods through interdisciplinary convergence is necessary.
