Abstract

The modern juvenile magazines put a reader’s contribution system into effect to expand the class of readers and to satisfy the reader's creative desires. Among them, Sinsonyun put this system into effect most actively. In the early, Sinsonyun limited a eligibility rule as a subscriber only and a certain kind of literary work. In process of time the rule was gradually improved, thus anyone and any kind of work could be allowed to submit. In this way more and more readers contributed literary work actively. And Sinsonyun gave lessons to the readers how to write through the judge’s comments and critique. The reader’s work was charged with juvenile mind tendency in the 1920’s and classist tendency in the 1930’s. It was deeply related with change of character of Sinsonyun.

Also they helped to grow as an writer. The reader’s contribution system in Sinsonyun made a great contribution towards systematic formation and reproduction systematic creation in modern juvenile literature.
