The paper aims to analyze Oscar Wilde’s and Kim Dong-In’s aestheticism and their works, The Picture of Dorian Gray and Crazy Painter through Jacques Lacan’s Psychoanalytic theory of desire. Wilde is against Victorian vulgar materialism and moralism and Kim Dong-In is against Lee Kwang-Soo’s enlightenment by using the style of aestheticism. Main characters experience ‘the mirror stage’ in that they can’t percept the object as a human or subject who have personality and subjectivity. They are eager for their desire strongly in their society of restraint. In the case of The Picture of Dorian Gray, Dorian strongly desires youth and beauty. In the case of Crazy Painter, painter desires absolute beauty. However, as soon as they get ‘the object’ they desire, they are deprived and come to feel absence and lack. They also resist symbolic society by pursuing their intense and innocent desire in common. In the point of writers’ desire for pursuing absolute beauty in art, their intentions are similar. However, while Wilde divides real world and art’s world into a different one, Dong-In treats real world and art’s world as the same one. Furthermore, Wilde thinks that art’s world is not only superior to real world but also leads real world.
