Abstract

Translated by Emily Yoon Translator's Note hng Chiyong is known today as one of the greatest modernist poets in Korean history, but scholarship on his poetry began to flourish only after 1988, when South Korea lifted the ban on literature by writers who defected to North Korea. Chng was born in Okch'n, North Ch'ungch'ng Province, in 1902. He attended Hwimun High School in Seoul (1918-1922), where he started his literary activities by publishing the literary magazine Yoram and composing his first fiction and poetry. He studied English literature at Doshisha University in Kyoto (1923-1929); while at Doshisha, in 1926, he made his debut as a poet with nine poems including "K'ap'e P'rans" [Cafe France] in the inaugural issue of Hakcho. After graduating from Doshisha, he returned to Hwimun High School to teach English, where he taught until Korea's independence from the Japanese occupation in 1945. Then he taught English and Latin at Ewha Women's University and assumed the role of chief editor for the Kynghyang newspaper.
