Abstract

"Jindalrae" had been between two different political groups - one was the group that realizes its unique situation as 'the Korean residents in Japan' in literature and the other considered itself only as the Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea (DPRK) and Jochongnyeon, the pro-Pyeongyang federation of Korean residents in Japan- which had led to conflict and argument until the discontinuance of the circle journal. Eventually, Osaka Poet Group was dissolved. Kin Si Jong, Joeng In and Yang Soek Il, who were the core members of "Jindalrae", cleared themselves of the political ideology that they had pursued in the early period and realized themselves more as Korean-japanese literary man through the argument of "Way of Being for Poem" and "Migrants' Memories". However, they could not stop the discontinuance of "Jindalrae" due to the suppression of Jochongnyeon and the decline of members. While surviving, "Jindalrae" developed from carbon-paper journal to typewritten and again printed one. Development wasn't confined to external change. Its contents were also enriched in quality. However, only professional literature group remained, so it gradually turned to a coterie magazine. The realistic consciousness as a Korean resident in Japan and enlightened awareness as a literary man grew proportionate to the fate of 'a circle'. The simple pleasure of writing a poem continued to develop into literary works of more poetic language, expanding to artistic expressions. That is, desiring for literary and artistic creation of poems, 'Osaka Poet Group' recognized that they were not a group of propaganda anymore, but perceived themselves as 'the field of creation' or 'the subjects of creation'. Here, the social status as 'Korean-Japanese' made it more complicate. Having gone a lot of internal conflicts and arguments centering on "Jindalrae", which led to the issue of their identity, the members of "Jindalrae" cast away their political stances, which was indiscriminate and fixed, and maintained that the peculiar situation of "being Korean-Japanese" could make a different method of literary creation from that of their homeland and it (the method) had to be asserted. After all, the literary expression group altered the existing method of poems in the realistic situations as Korean-Japanese and thus "Jindalrae" closed down in February in 1959. The group published a new magazine called 'Garion' and declared its new beginning of the literature of Korean-japanese.-
