This study is about literature of Gosan Yn Sun-do(孤山 尹善道) and his life that haunted Gang-ho(江湖) natures and political realities repeatedly, Especially, it considers what aspect of cognition he had about two realities, Gang-ho(江湖) and the Imperial Court(朝廷) and how it throws image on his works. And through these, it is examined what his viewpoint of literature is. First of all, through a memorial to the Throne that put him in first political trial, we can know that he was so strict that he didn't compromise with political realities and at the same time, he has a strong political inclination hidden behind his character. These two aspects are reflected on his works as his confrontation will and his agony between the two realities two realities. And through analysing the contents of <金鎖洞記> tt recollect landscapes of 金鎖洞 where Yun Sun-do mostly stayed, it can be found that his total viewpoints of nature is complacency. This complacency including the satisfaction of Gang-ho life and his ethics is intactly reflected on his works. Finally, it is clearly revealed that he tried to embody the principle of nature and ethics in his literary works and his reference to the literary as well.
