Abstract

Lee Hak-in was born in Taecheon in 1903 and continued his literary activities from 1923 to 1936. The newly discovered Lee Hak-in’s poetry Mugunghwa was first published in the first 24 years, but it seems likely to have been confiscated, so it could be said that the newly discovered Mugunghwa is a second edition.
 Poems contained in Mugunghwa, could be largely divided into two series. One of the poems is based on the historical sites and legends of the Joseon Dynasty. These poems reflect some of the nationalistic tendencies of him, but they focus on enumerating historical sites and describing historical facts and legends related to them. The other was poetry containing personal lyricism, including poems he called so-called love poetry. In these poems, Lee Hak-in showed his talent as a poet, but there were works that did not have enough poetic form.
 The poetry Mugunghwa was almost the only example published by a student in the early 1920s, and it is also meaningful as a dramatic example of how the literary passion of the young generation, who responded very actively and enthusiastically to the various literary systems that were being formed, produced some results.
