The purpose of this paper was on integrating into poems the problem of 'individual subjectivism', the frequently emerging agendum in poem collections by Poet Kim Soo-young, in other words, common and epic dialects and the word of "I" as the confession word, in an effort to discuss whether the subject of poems by Kim Soo-young was dealt with in the aspect of 'modern individual'. From the perspective of ethnicity and individual subjectivism-based Korean history, 'individual' and 'individual subjectivism' seems to have gradually been at ebb in the face of the words of 'liberty' and 'individual' pandemic throughout early the 1950s. The end of the 1960s led to a change of liberal democracy to ethnic nationalism. The erosion of the concept, 'liberty' and the emphasis of the concept, 'ethnicity' impelled 'liberty' to advance into political one, not autonomous individual ethical concept. Appearing in poem collection by Kim Soo-young, "I" appear to have been associated with poetic traits of intellectual self-awareness, integrity and consciousness based on direct and real experiences. But, strictly speaking, the word of "I" written by confession style was depicted as the word not as 'modern individual' but as 'ethnic and collective subjectivism'. As to family, typical private and privacy domain, Poet Kim Soo-young was not so much focused on modern individual tastes and autonomous consumption rights, but he mirrored the absolute distaste of western materialism, giving insight into nationalism -oriented modern subjectivism. In this manner, ethnic subjectivism-based modernist attempted to engage in the worldand make the world objectivize, in light of "I" and "You", looking at the history and era through the view of right and sound world, as part of a bid to hold ethnic subjectivism at the stage of cultural transition in complex era. In the respect, the word of 'individual' by Kim Soo-young can be referred to as the meaning of ethnic and collective subjectivism-based individual, rather than 'non-nationalism liberal individual'.
