Abstract

In this paper, using Lee sang’s Korean poetry as the text, the characteristics of auxiliary verbs appearing in poetry were examined, and the relationship between auxiliary verbs and the formation of Lee sang’s poetry was examined. In Lee sang’s Korean poetry works, ‘see’ is reflected in the speaker’s feelings of alienation and the speaker’s desire to keep a psychological distance from the situation they are facing. ‘See’ plays a role in strengthening the psychology of separating oneself from the situation the speaker is facing and trying to keep a distance. ‘Throw away’ is the auxiliary verb with the second highest frequency of appearance in Lee sang’s poetry. The auxiliary verb ‘throw away’ is the meaning of inconvenience, and the meaning of relief. The auxiliary verb ‘throw away’ that creates the meaning of inconvenience reveals the time of irreversibility. In the negative context of the auxiliary verb ‘throw away’, the speaker’s feelings of solitude are denied or blocked. The third case is when ‘throw away’ is used as a double auxiliary verb composed of ‘throw away’ + ‘want’, the meaning of relief is not realized.
