Song sun(1493~1582) is one of the most famous writers in the 16C in Chosun dynasty. He lived all his life as an politician and poet. Song sun, born at Bongsan, Damyang in Chunnam, was especially instrumental in developing korean poetry. He is said to have written over 30 poems and korean poetry such as Myungangjeongga, which is Gasa and he is also credited with more than 500 Hansi. With these writings, he is frequently called the greates of korean poets. Our ancestors admired NATURE much more than any other nation. This is why most of their works are focused on natural poetry. Natural poetry made a start with the foundations from the poetry of Corye. This nature became the object of poetry in Chosun dynasty. From "Ganghosasiga" written by Mang sasung, nature came to be the stage of poetry. Thus, korean could find a true natural beauty in Chosun dynasty and many natural poems appeared in the world of poetry. But this nature is not the same to anyone. People have an apparently different point of view on nature. In the East, people were under the control of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Consequently it is natural that people who had a different thinking and philosophy had different sights on nature. In Buddhism, they thought nature as forest itself. In Taoism, they understood nature as a motionless one. and they regarded nature as an object which is considered to be looked at far in the distance in confucianism. Confucian often called it "Gangho" poems. The earlier natural poems of Song sun were not yet in harmony with Gangho, since he was still sttached to the reality. They became identical with nature in the late period. In this paper, we investigate the character and quality of Song sun's natural poems, that is, wide varieties of natural poems. It deals with the form of natural poems, the meaning of nature, the identification with nature and the view point on nature.
