Abstract

This article is an analysis of the birth-myth of King Suro. It is based on the premise of Analytical Psychology that a myth is the product of human psyche and the projection of collective unconsciousness. In this study, mythologem, the key motif in myth, and the development of mythological contents were regarded to correspond to archetypal images and libidinal transformation processes. Symbolic meanings of myth were explored through the hermeneutic method with amplification of symbols and comparisons among similar stories. And meanings of the mythical symbols were interpreted as an intra-psychic phenomena. The purpose of myth analysis in Analytical Psychology is to understand the phenomena that occur inside of human psyche. To comprehend mythical symbols could be one way to get insights into the abyssal unconsciousness, which is called "Object Psyche, i.e. the Other in me"; therefore we can get help in restoring the psychic totality and equilibrium through walking out of one-sidedness of the conscious. Finally the implications and limitations of this study were discussed and further suggestions were made.
