In this paper, I did a comparative study of the adopted daughters in the “The tale of Genji” and “The Cloud Dream of the Nine”. The two works are different in many respects. However, both countries are highly influenced by Chinese culture, and there are many similarities in that they were created at the time the original letters were invented. Among the similarities, this paper examined the legal system of adoption and examined the meaning and process of the work of adopted daughter. A review of the legal system found that both adopted parents and biological parents were legally treated equally, even if they were actually discriminated. In addition, the case of the daughter was not legally constrained to adopt. It was confirmed that the laws of the Joseon Dynasty were more patriarchal than the laws of the Heian period. These social system differences also emerge in the process of adopting daughter. However, the function of the adopted daughter in the work has in common that the purpose is to give the protagonist absolute power as a result.
