Ryangban-jeon and Rabbit's Adventure were the works made with reception of Korean classics. Han, Jin adapted Park, Ji-won's Yangban-jeon, however, the nature of the figures are highly contradictory and development of events or results are also different. Yangban appearing in Yangban-jeon is incompetent but not evil, the wife of Yangban is a snob but a partly positive figure who strictly scolds Yangban class. The humble millionaire is also a figure of goodwill who can't receive the misconduct of absurdity of Yangban class as his own behavior pattern. The county headman is also a positive figure who afforded a clue of situation improvement with exposing the problems of Yangban class. However, Yangban and his wife and county headman in Ryangban-jeon are the negative figures who suppresses, exploits and does violence toward the ruled class. Han, Jin wanted to emphasize the superiority of their communist ideology or regime changing a large number of Yangban-jeon, charging the falsehood and pretense of the ruling class, and showing the happy ending of the ruled class. Han, Jin showed that their present situation is better than the irrational old world through satire and humor of the classics. It is a kind of wise thing. Rabbit's Adventure is a work felicitously showing the Kareiskys' situation through a little expanded aesthetics of humor and satire. Song of the white rabbit taken to the Sea God's Palace, song of Geobugi[turtle] rescued by rabbit he took just before being killed by mountain animals, last song of the white rabbit survived through his own quick wits is the part outweighed with inside themes, the writer's emphasis is also concentrated on this song. The two songs of white rabbit show the emotion of nostalgia as diaspora, song of Geobugi is a good example showed Han, Jin's situation felicitously. The Geobugi's miserable situation if he returns into the ocean, he would be killed by Dragon King coincides with Han, Jin's situation if he returns to his fatherland, North Korea, he would be killed by Kim, Il-Sung. The Geobugi's lamentation that he wants to live on the earth, however he has no friends also exactly represents Han, Jin's innermost feelings wondering from place to place abroad. Therefore, the work Rabbit's Adventure is not a simple dramatization from the Korean classical novel Tokki-jeon, but a successful work that he broadened the aesthetics and theme comparing to original work with exposing the writer's situation settled down in Kazakhstan between his fatherland and USSR.
