A parody, in contemporary usage, is a work created to mock, comment on,or poke fun at an original work, its subject, author, style, or some other target, by means of humorous, satiric or ironic imitation. Parody gives us a new way to look at the original work and the world. We look at the many parodies in every day life. But there contains many copyright issues. Especially in Korean Copyright system there is no express exception for parody like French, Spanish, Belgian Law, and no general fair use clause like U.S. copyright law. This gives us many troubles to accept the parody within copyright system and to make it a legitimate work. And there are economic rights and moral rights in the Korean copyright system, so-called dual system unlike german copyright system. This also gives us trouble. In Korea many scholars consider that parody is a derivative work. But some consider it as a independent work, even though depending on the underlying work. This paper researches some copyright cases: Walt Disney Productions v. Air Pirates case, Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. case, Suntrust Bank v. Houghton Miffin Co. case, ‘Alcolix’ case, Photo-montage distortion case,etc. Until now in Korea we can manage the parody copyright isssue with the application of the citation clause(§28: It shall be permissible to make quotations from a work already being made public provided that they are within a reasonable limit for news reporting, criticism, education and research, etc. and compatible with fair practice). In a sense it has the same effect as the fair use clause of U.S.A. But it has a limitation. It restricts only the economic right and can't solve the moral right issue. And when cited the other's work, we must indicate the part of quotation. In parody it's nearly impossible to indicate the part of quotation. So this paper proposes that as a general clause we introduce the fair use clause into Copyright Act and the amendment of the Article 5 of Copyright Act. That's as follows: The parodic work is not regarded as the derivative work. The reason is as follows : A parody is almost always quasi-revolutionary in concept. So in the view of such a parodic nature, we regard the parodic work as a independent work even though parodist use the underlying work.
