Architecture is a product of numerous influences, as shown in the apprenticeships of Kim, Jung-Up and Kim, Swoo-Geun with Le Corbusier’s influences. Therefore, its identity is need to be re-defined based on such complex relationships. The rhetorical images of ‘the Map of Misreading’, as the core of the poetic identification proposed by Harold Bloom’s ‘the Theory of Influence’, provide an efficient way of explaining the relations between architectural apprenticeships and identities. This research is to re-build a new methodology of architectural criticism based on it. The diachronic transformations of the architecture of Seung, Hyo-Sang also had very characteristic ‘revisionary ratios’ about his precursor Kim, Swoo-Geun. As an antithetic stance of his precursor’s final phase, his early days works pursued continuously geometric abstraction and objective images of the architecture of Adolf Loos. However, his recent works are showing the obvious symptoms of regression to his origins. Finally, the architectural identity should be re-conceptualized as a complexity, based on inter-textuality from complex influences. This new architectural identity can be reflected into the modern obsessive identity.
