‘Fusion’ is one of the most important issue in this society. Since the consistent professionalism after the modern era, communication of each field of society has been severed. The severance causes isolation. Fusion was suggested to overcome such limit, because it is a combination of different fields which is creative. The certain area that we can clearly see the trend of fusion in literature is ‘SF(Science Fiction)’. It pursuits combination of scientific imagination and art. Therefore, this study is to research possibility as creating method for new value with reflection of our contemporary change, focusing on the meaning of fusion implied in SF. SF was formed with modern civilization and has been developed with science. In the initial stage, the knowledge of natural science was mainly used. Since ‘New Wave’ in 1960s, social science has been introduced. Also, since ‘Cyber Punk’ in 1980s, cultural science was aggressively demanded. Likewise, in the field of SF, natural, social and cultural sciences has exchanged equally and created new value. Based on the above, I reviewed the possibility of Korean SF which agrees with the Fusion era. First, as an example of the fusion, Kim Tak-Hwan, a story-teller and Jeong Jae-Seung, a physicist created The Blind Watchmaker by cooperation. During the creation, the participation of scientist guarantees the objectivity of idea which is evaluated positively. Second, as an example of social science fusion, there is Tower by Bae Myeong-Hun. This work is focused on relationships that people make in a life background in the future, rather than just a future. Therefore, this is an allegory which alludes to future society by the present. Third, there is an example of Private Life of a Nation by Lee Eung-Jun for cultural science. This work shows two Korea's reunification, the virtual history, with ‘historical research methodology’. Through this set, the artist tells us that South and North Koreas did not consider each other seriously.
