Abstract

Until now Kim Dong In as the historical novelist has been estimated as the pro-Japanese oriented writer for the sake of full-length novel at that time's newspapers. In considering the Dangun suppression level of the period of Japanese colonial rule, however, Kim Dong In's whereabouts which were thoroughly seen through the journal of an unofficial historical story where the 「The Heritage of the Three States」, that is the precedent of Dangun, was publicly released and circulated present counter reasons that were not intended to be included into the colonial rule theory in itself. In comparison with the Choi Nam Sun calling Dangun's attention at the domain of verse who entered the group 'The chosun history compilation committee' which strongly angered Japan's Dangun obliteration policy in 1928, after that, no more called Dangun's attention, Kim Dong In although novelizing Dangun belately in 1930's had been continued that works after the liberation of the Japanese colonial rule. But, the historical novel through an unofficial historical story including Kim Dong In's relevant novels could not be found the consciousness to wipe out the opinion <Dangun=Susanou> which had been taken advantage of the Japan-Chosun conformity theory in the period of Japanese colonial rule. That only in the level of emphazing the Chosun's everlasting history through the Dangun and after liberating the Japanese colonial rule is showing the situation of presenting the image distinctly. Hereby the remainder of work is how to see the dangerousness which is intended to include the myth of Dangun into the history through the novel although 「The Heritage of the Three States」, that is the precedent of Dangun. This is obivous that the opinion <Dangun=Susanou> is derivated from the precedent 「The Chronical Heritage of Japan」 on the opposite side of the Korean people's Nationalism creation through the myth of Dangun. The interesting fact in connection with this content is that on the one hand, the Dangun, having been widespreadly considered as the heteronymous same phantom of the Susanou inside of the Japan-Chosun conformity theory, was located in the level of the translation release and just mention by the the journal of an unofficial historical story which were relevantly free from the Japanese censorship in the colonized Chosun, on the other hand, in the colonial Japan, the Susanou was all the more released by the newspaper as the image of doubting the Imperialism. This enables us to reconsider the myth, the history, and the function of literature in the theory of colonial rule pattern.
