This study investigated present situation and possibility of novels that the North Korean refugee became the subject, through Kim Yu- gyeong’s 「choung chun youn ga」. Kim Yu-gyeong’s 「choung chun youn ga」(Youth Sonata) has signifi- cance for showing diversity of North Korean refugee consciousness and model of them. ‘Seon-hwa’, ‘Bok-nyeo’ and ‘Gyeong-ok’ in Youth Sonata are those who joined Hanawon(Settlement Support Center for North Korean Refugees), and they share the group consciousness of North Korean refugees in South Korea after they settled in South Korea. ‘Seon-hwa’ shows ambivalent emotions of the North Korean refugee’s hidden side metaphorically, rather than expressing in the raw the pain and anger caused by the North Korean regime and the escape process from North Korea. ‘Bok-nyeo’ strongly reveals self-esteem as the North Korean refugee and casts critical eyes on the South Korean society at the same time. ‘Gyeong-ok’ shows nakedly the desire of capital that has been a taboo in the North Korean refugees’ description. However, in that the North Korean refugees in this novel can not objectively see the recolonization process under capitalism, it lacks something. Also, 「choung chun youn ga」(Youth Sonata) takes on the North Korean novel character in nomenclature of novel’s title or creation methodology and shows desire of re-territorialization that dreams of inter-Korean reconciliation and union. Above all, unlike the other testimony description, it is very important in starting to show various and complicated consciousness of the North Korean refugee group through the novel speaker.
