This study aims to illuminate the significance of the poetic vision of Kim, Soo-Young by focusing on his 'revolution' and 'freedom' representing his existential recognition. Existentialism is a way of life of the present existence in which humans constantly raise questions on themselves, others and history in the frame of the world. The revolution of Kim, Soo-young can be considered 'a will' of overcoming the wall of reality as well as the limit situation which are placed in front of the existential being. The true freedom can be obtained once one climbed over the wall of limit situation, and this performance of freedom is connected to the process of revolution.
Kim, Soo-Young emphasized that the newness and freedom of poetry which are exclusively based on reality are worthy of genuine meaning. The poetics constituting the base of his poetic creation corresponds to the poetics of newness, freedom and the whole body. In the first place, when the newness and freedom are fulfilled in the reality in sync with our history and times, they finally have poetic force. Since 'the desire for newness is the desire for freedom', a poet is inevitably supposed to a rebellious soul by nature who seeks for the reformation of reality. This rebellion refers to the rebellion as the essence of culture and its meaning encompasses the avant-garde features represented by a new work of writing. For this reason, regarding the true literature of newness, when it looks out on the interiority of the poet of his own, the internal freedom can be pursued, and when it is extroverted orienting towards the society and politics, it becomes an unavoidable threat to the existing orders of the society. However, when the internal freedom and external freedom coexist, a new literature can be born. In the second place, in the poetics of the whole body, if 'writing poetry' represents the form of poetry, 'discussing poetry' refers to the content of poetry. In other words, it means that the form of poetry as 'writing poetry-song-artistic value-ambiguity' and the content of poetry as 'discussing poetry-prose-reality-adventure' are integrated and push forward with the whole body.
The body appeared in the poetry of Kim, Soo-Young is not only the space of introspection in which allspheres of emotions-ration, individuals-world, history-future coexist, but also a place in which the human finitude called death is accepted and overcome. The body oppressed by everyday life is an existential main agent carrying isolation and pain. That body is the one that perceives the pain with the whole body or with every fiber of the body. When the contradiction of the reality emerges as the foregrounding, the pain feels more intense. It is because the ethical pain is added to the ontological limits when the reality becomes more concretized. Kim, Soo-young intended to overcome the reality with the whole body, by sublimating the experiences of the body obtained through war, prisoner's life and the April 19 Revolution, into the linguistic expression. His body is the one that experiences in the reality itself along with the period of time, and it is a place in which he sometimes resists to the reality and gains the energy of renewed generation through the resistance.
The metapoetry of Kim, Soo-Young starts with the question of 'What existence is a poet?' and his works explicitly showwhich role a poet plays and how a poet lives. Through his poetry, he describes poetic world, poets and his own poetic creation. This metapoetry originates from the poet's ethical awakening. This way, while writing poetry, the poet newly explores his own existence and undiscovered poetry. New poetry stems from the authenticity of the poet who has gone through the reality with the whole body, and this authenticity is plainly revealed through a piece of his poem as a product of intense self-introspection.
The revolution of Kim, Soo-Young is something that surmounts the limit situation of politics and society and builds the complete society. This revolution can obtain true freedom when it honestly accepts our history and tradition by climbing the wall. While the revolution of Kim, Soo-Young can be considered 'the relative revolution' in which the revolutions of ego and society ceaselessly repeat, the revolution that the poetry seeks corresponds to 'the complete revolution' in which the content and the form are the whole body. After the failure of the political revolution, he realized what the true revolution was. That is to say, it is breaking through all the walls of everyday life which is the limit situation of the existence. When this is implemented, the freedom can be finally enjoyed. This freedom affirmed the daily life in the form of love and silence and it could display a bigger force for the unknown revolution.
Kim, Soo-young suffered from the problems of dehumanization and existence caused by the unstableness and desperation of the reality by the historical and political chaos. However, in the middle of the chaos, the poet never stopped practicing self-introspection to the end regarding life and art. In his poetic world, there is an inevitable causality among body, metapoetry and revolution based on existence. This is because his poetic freedom has the implicit significance of existential themes of freedom and revolution. Kim, Soo-Young pursued 'the poetry of behavior', where poetry and life is fused, and not 'the tool of behavior'. His poetry and poetic creation mean not only the aspiration and effort for opening new possibilities, but also the fierce existential struggle for the fundamental outlook of the world.
