After the country's independence, he settled in Yanji, China and wrote a variety of works—including Haerangang-a malhara (해란강아 말하라, Let the Haeran River Speak) published in 1954, 20 segiui sinhwa (20세기의 신화, Myth of the 20th Century) in 1967, and Gyeokjeong sidae (격정시대, The Era of Passion) in 1986—to the point of being called "the father of the Korean Chinese literature." His works describe a specific reality, always maintain a positive attitude as well as a sense of humor, and pursues an international solidarity of the people.
