초록

The article will try to understand how we conceive the image of a Christian in Korea through analyzing a certain character shown in the short story entitled "Choi Sunduck Full of Holy Spirit." In the story, Choi is compared, with parodies, to Jesus Christ. Thus, as the Gospels are recording His life, the story tells us how Choi has grown up, and how much God's Love has changed her life, and how she decided to devote herself to the God in order to save a man named Adam. The Gospels and the story are very similar in terms of the organization of various chapters and of the employment of archaic writing styles.
Through parodies, the story dares to deny the greatness of the great powers and, at the same time, to destroy the existing order in the minds of human beings, which is supposed to be unchangeable. Parody has two different strategies. One is to copy the original, and the other is to fight against the original idea. Therefore, in reading this parodic story, readers will be, on the one hand, pleased to read the Bible from a different point of view, and, on the other hand, opposed to the parodic idea because it is a sort of blasphemy. Christians may feel very uncomfortable regarding the author's attitude. However, what I want to clarify is that the author is not really bitter against Christianity. Choi is pure and very sensitive to the holy spirit. Therefore readers will be rather fascinated by the deep faith and loyalty that Choi shows in the course of her life. Some may conclude that the author has tactically aimed at this effect but, in my opinion, this sort of text may sometimes give fresh feelings to the readers even if the author himself has never tried to do that.
This article will be one of the best examples in helping readers think about the true meaning of Christianity. For example, we may organize a forum in which student readers full of ideas will discuss on the characters and, in doing that, they may find some clues in analyzing the text from different angles. We christians who are always hesitating between here and eternity will have a great chance to think about ourselves in reading "Choi Sunduck Fulll of Holy Spirit."
