Abstract

Chen Lang’s Xueyuemei and Sim Nung-Sook’s Oksugi are family novels that appeared in the late feudal society of China and South Korea. This article examines the background, creative mode and writer consciousness of the two works. In the part of written background, Xueyuemei and Oksugi embodies the development characteristics of family novels in the later feudal societies of China and South Korea. On the basis of genius and beauty novels, Chen Lang broke through its creative mode of simply depicting love between men and women. By adding other elements such as wars and heroes, he realized the innovation of creative mode, and at the same time achieved the purpose of showing his personal talents and ideals. Under the atmosphere of improved acceptance of novels in the late Joseon dynasty, Sim Nung-Sook also used the method of combining original works, depicting the love between men and women and the story of meritorious deeds in the works, and at the same time made personal desires replaced and satisfied. In the part of creative mode, both Xueyuemei and Oksugi completed the creation of works through the structure of “family debut, family unity and joint contribution”. The difference is that Oksugi adds the marriage between the Wang family and the Ren family, the connection between Jia Youxian and Lvye, and the conflicts between the wives and concubines caused by Mrs. Sheng in the last part of the work. In the content part, the two works are based on a large number of original novels, through combination, transformation and other methods to complete the creation of the “love + hero” model. It’s just that unlike Xueyuemei which all borrowed from Chinese works, Oksugi used Chinese and Korean classical novels while shaping the image of love and heroes, and finally made the works show a more complex fusion characteristic. In the part of writer’s consciousness, both Chen Lang and Sim Nung-Sook achieved the purpose of showing their talents and the substitute and satisfaction of life’s desires through the creation of novels. At the same time, Chen Lang, as a figure who has not obtained a formal official position, expressed the hope that the country should select talents based on talent rather than a single imperial examination by depicting the process of protagonists of various identities making contributions through recommendation and other methods. As a descendant of scholar-officials, Sim Nung-Sook projected his own family into the works, and realized his desire for life through the process of marriage between various scholar-officials, fighting against enemies together, and sharing prosperity and wealth.
