This article focuses on the Conflict between Biological siblings in Korean classical long novels. This interest is caused by two reasons below. First, there are not so many works dealing with this problem among Korean classical long novels although it could be common in reality. Second, it is possible to examine issues of noble famile in the 18th century of Chosun by researching the conflict between biological siblings. <Yuhyogongsunhaengrok柳孝公善行錄>, <Myungjugibong明珠奇逢>, <Hyunmongssangryonggi現夢雙龍記> are selected for this study. These works represent the Conflict of brothers, sisters and brother and sister. Antagonists are described to inborn villains by narrator but there are other reasons of their vicious actions caused by parents and family. Parents show favoritism and family suppresses their desire. This means that those parents, especially patriarchs failed in moral culture and home management(修身齊家), and family ideology controled individuals. Therefore those villains were created by surroundings of that period. As a result, the noble family is confronted with problems such as conflicts among family members and structural inconsistency of the order of family, although the family was idealized superficially. Those novels show the reality and troubles of Chosun society in 18th century through the conflict between Biological siblings, which was represented by familism.
