This writing had research subject as Zhang Yang's movies titled <Getting Home(落葉歸根)>(2007) and <Full Circle (飛越老人 院)>(2012). Two pieces of movies are roughly distinguished from the existing movies in a sense of having commercially consumed a social issue, which is caused by migrant workers and aging, with the use of road-movie genre. This study was progressed a research with paying attention to this point. First, it considered the process that socially underprivileged people such as migrant workers proceed with being included in the mainstream narrative. It clarified that the combination of road movie and comedy is proceeding with solidifying position as one new trend while illuminating the process that migrant workers, who had been addressed realistically, are divided into a character of comedy and are again mixed with road movie. Second, a gap could be confirmed to be created between journey and reality shown in a movie due to the combination of road movie and comedy. And it examined how socially underprivileged people were commercially played a variation to be applied. At the same time, it could confirm that there is reality outside journey in a sense that therapy of being mobilized by family love is proposed as solution rather than complaining about and reflecting on reality with which socially underprivileged people are faced.
