The purpose of this paper is to study on the various aspects of a creative method about dream modes (夢遊樣式) which was created in the transition period to modern era. This study concentrates on analyzing the creative methods of Manhamongyurok (晩河夢遊錄) which was written by Kwang-su Kim in 1907 because it presented urgent matters and handling measures in the period very well. A writer used the dream modes to discuss about a modernization and a national sovereignty. There are three creative methods in Manhamongyurok. Firstly, it passes on the dream modes on the previous generation. Therefore, a dreammotive controls an epic elements in an unique structure. But it had certain characteristic of evolving the epic as doing a journey around the dreamworld. And novel's heroine fleshed out the issue of a modernization and the preservation of a national sovereignty through discussing them with characters in the dreamworld. Secondly, it takes both the aspects of short dream and the creative custom of full-length dream novels. From this reason, the writer was describing his work as combining a traditional confucianism discussion and a modern-enlightenment discussion. Lastly, novel's heroine gave his opinions in every space. Thus, the opinions were integrated into one by making various enlightenment discussions in each space into the scenes. As mentioned above, although it is a fact that Manhamongyurok inherits the traditional culture of classical novels, it is taken for granted that it is the main work in the changes of the dream modes.
