Many people have already mentioned the works of the Video Art. This is the age, video image is not a particular thing. We should not follow easily those things having been studied by a lot of people again. However, nowadays after he passed away, they voice their opinions that we should reanalyze his works properly. Therefore, it may be not new to make video image a subject of discussion. However, this study intends to look into the works of Paik Nam June once again from a new aspect that no preceding researchers did not pay much attention. It will be the main theme of this study to try to discover the expansion of nature and educational effects through technology by analyzing his works from another aspect as one person who lives in the age that video image is no more special.

This paper critically examines the evolution of Nam June Paik's self-contradictory art philosophy. While the existing literature tends to slight it, Paik's works of arts remain fraught with contradictions: Paik has proved prima facie avant-garde an artist; however, as the scale and form of his works have developed, the prophetic, path-breaking philosophical underpinnings of his arts evolved to become more conformist. The present paper aims to shed light on the understudied and underappreciated side of Paik's accomplishments in order to come to a fuller understanding and appreciation of his arts and his legacy.
