Social Injustice in 1930s and 1970s Korean Literature
Throughout the twentieth century Korean society has struggled with the instability of a large social divide. Recognizing the struggles caused by this divide, Korean writers have called attention to it in an attempt to effect social change. In this paper the works of Kang Kyong-ae from 1934 and Cho Se-hui from 1975 to 1978 will be examined for their reflection on the state and prognosis of Korean society.
