In the studying process of poetry text, Analysing and extracting the meaning of symbol is a very Important to understand consciousness of a poet. A study on symbol can be dealt with in various ways. This paper, particularly, pays attention to animal symbol because poetic language about animal appears frequently. In addition, the poetic language offers clues to understand poet's consciousness. A study that detects the unique system on animal symbol and reserchs relationship between symbol's ways and consciousness in Yu's earlier works is very useful basic work in that it can prove his poet's essence, the change of consciousness accroding to creation times and the aggregate harmony as an aim. This paper can confirm the system of animal symbol based on Cheongmasicho, Sangmyouniseo. First, 'KKamaki'(crow) represents an enclosed self who stands alone in dark reality. 'KKamaki' contains the negative notion that the human has granted, including images such as black color, dark times, space in an enclosed space on the earth. Yu Chi-Hwan experiencing enclosed self in gloomy reality spece combines heaviness, gloom of darkness with KKamaki's essential attributes. Through this he reveals his conscious world, Especially, He sees himself as KKamaki, leanding him to self-torture of poet. Second, the 'Barkjie(bat)', 'Tarjoo(ostriches)', 'Hark(crane)' in the mixed context of the dark and light reflects the contradictions of human beings. Yu Chi-Hwan's conern toword the nature of human linked the contradictory nature of human beings. His consciousness is materialized in poetry through the controdictory way to identify himself with animals and empathy. The structural contradiction of animals caused by innate property, contradictory nature and attitude of existence which stays in darkness of the earth, heading heavenly light, play a major role to release being's contradictoriness. In addition, Yu Chi-Hwan recognizes light as more vivid world of consciousness. He has an intention to understand being's contradictoriness by placing animals in the middle of dark and light. Third, the 'Hwanggeumsarza(Golden Lion)', Byeongaari(chick)', 'sorigae(Kite)' is transcendental existence in the intense light world. 'Hwanggeumsarza' and 'Byeongaari' with a transcendental power and absolute value and 'sorigae' as Him who tries to esscapr human world. A poet connects the vicious Hwanggeumsarza staring the sun with 'Byeongaari' having same color with gold and the sun, thus creates new meaning as transcendental being. In the light of the sun is transcendence done. Thus Yu Chi-Hwan selects the penetration and immanence of light. In particular, when singing transcendence, he shows tough tone of men as speaking ways. In short, the system of animal symbol in Yu's earlier works is his conscious system to aware existence. In the system of darkness, light and their mixing, his consciousness moves dynamically, In other words, Yu's conscious path, from the darkness to light, earth to heaven, enclosed to open self, is known through the variety of symbol system of animal. And his hylomorphic techniques as well as thoughts is a great system. Therefore, there are enough possibilities to reinterprete Yu Chi-Hwan's poetry world through studying the system of animal symbol.
