Korean and Chinese contemporary literature develops parallel along each track. In the study of this paper, it has found that compare on Korean-Chinese classical literary works has been deeply studied, but comparative study on contemporary literature has hardly seen. Especially, the study on Korean-Chinese marital love novels has even been little. Thus the study on Korean-Chinese contemporary literature, as a weak study field, has become the most potential and valuable researching aspect in the overall Korean-Chinese researching system. That means a comparative study on the Korean and Chinese contemporary literature, especially on the contemporary female writers'works, is worth doing because of its importance and far-reaching influence.Based above understanding, this paper makes the representative contemporary female writers Liang Guizi and Chi Li, whose marital love novels as the main studying object so that marital love theme can be probed profoundly, and ordinary people's morality, philosophy and values will be analyzed. For the sake of discovering the best connection in the marital love life, its historical root should be explored, including feudal code, marital system, and physiological difference between the male and the female, as well as a rational analysis of their relationship. By the study of the text, the paper has discovered the similarity and the difference of Korean-Chinese marriage and love, and then reveals its deeper connotation and internal cause. . Furthermore, it provides a mutual understanding stage for dealing with the cultural relationship between Korean and China, Korean nationality and Han nationality.The paper includes seven chapters, which makes historical criticism in Marxist aesthetics, and parallel compare in comparative literature as its main researching methodology.Chapter One, Introduction, contains studying object, situation, methodology, purpose and significance.Chapter Two,cultural background comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li marital love novels, consists of social development extent contrast and family self-identity sense contrast.Chapter Three, creating path comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li, involves literary dream contrast, life condition contrast, and creating trace and its feature contrast as well.Chapter Four, figure image comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li marital love novels, covers male character image contrast:dominance——androcentrism image, betraying——degradation. male image, and flyback——heroism image; female character image contrast:tolerance——traditional female image, rebellion wrathful female image, and compromise——wisdom female image; and figure image feature comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li marital love novels.Chapter Five, "marriage, love, annoyance" theme comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li marital love novels comprises:extramarital affair; love falling away from marriage, sexual liberation; spiritual and moral horizon breakthrough, no love; the best track to maintain marriage, trouble; marital love melody.Chapter Six, narrating art comparison between Liang Guizi and Chi Li marital love novels, is made up of unique narrative perspective,text structure contrast and artistic means of new factual writing, and Chapter Seven, Conclusion as well.This paper aims to answer the following questions:how the cultural background of marital love in Korean and China has evolved; how the female fight against the male androcentrism while demanding self-liberation; how the female find their position under paternity; as to the manner of managing marriage and love, what similarities and differences are for the female and the male in Korean and China; what the female and the male should do to live a happy and harmonious life. Exploring the conceptual and historical roots, my proposals are:no matter Korean or China, male or female, in the one world, one dream earth, should develop from equal negotiation together based on seeking common ground while putting aside differences. So that Korean and Chinese people can think about marital view, love view, worth view and happy view deeply from the national perspective or the universal perspective; and can further push the ideology and culture communication between two countries.In this paper, Liang Guizi and Chi Li are both eminent writers in Korean-Chinese literary field in the 1980s. During that period, their social background is similar:the fast economy growth speed, the establishment of the modernization industrial system, modern city development and materialistic concept expansion. Under the same social background, both female writers treat common people as the main studying object in each works, and put emphasis on marital love as the theme of their novels to probe into the contradiction between the male and the female. Two writers, both edified by Confucianism and effected by western literary review, are much similar to the understanding of marriage and love, despite of their different nationality, grown-up environment and creating track. And these two writers'theme reflected from their works is:to guide the male and the female to be in a comfortable and happy state in each marriage and love by the instructions of marital love management; to analyze whether the campaign between androcentrism and feminism is beneficial for permanent and stable marriage or not; to make the female find out the best connection between marriage and love while gaining self-liberation and identifying with the male.The study indicates that Korean culture and Chinese culture in the history both belongs to "East Asia Han cultural circle", and has been under the edification.of Confucianism. Both merged gradually and recognized mutually during the process of communication in the thousands of years. Especially in the process of study, through the analysis of the male image and the female image in the marital love life, the study on Korean-Chinese contemporary marital love has been more integrate, credible, and truthful. In conclusion, readers can know about more literary essence, and can make much deeper sense of Korean and Chinese contemporary literature development by the study on the female writers.
