This thesis considered physical phenomenology of olfactory image appeared in poems in 80’s as basis of awareness logic and then, aimed to discover the meaning by applying olfactory social‧cultural theory on the basis. Olfactory sense can be a code to diagnose not only an individual but also society and culture in Korean poem history responding to history and reality. Consciousness process of respective senses in physical phenomenology is similar but different mental characteristics are shown depending on which part of brain is stimulated by perceived sense. Generally, research from sensible viewpoint and research from olfactory viewpoint can sometimes be interpreted in common context between them but there is an aspect which can be explained from the olfactory viewpoint only. Social‧cultural phenomena in the 80’s as olfactory feature are summarized as follows; First, olfactory sense from olfactory image of poems in the 80’s was conscientized as political resistance and people’s smell. It becomes metaphor as ‘scent’ showing resistance between social classes, ‘blood smell’ and ‘stench’ showing resistance between sexual classes. It can be said that if people’s smell was olfactory metaphor criticizing new army group or capitalists in the 80’s, smell to resist female identity was olfactory metaphor prescribing female social status in the 80’s. Such olfactory metaphor indicated status and awareness of social weaker parties whose human rights were infringed by political circle and capitalists. Second, olfactory sense from olfactory image of poems in the 80’s was conscientized as industrialization and capitalism smell. It becomes metaphor as ‘wastewater’ criticizing olfactory ideology of industrialized society and as ‘fictional scent’ worrying materialization of human presence and existence. If smell due to industrialization was criticism of infringement and destruction of people, smell processed by materialization attribute was olfactory sense worrying materialization of human presence and existence. Such olfactory metaphor indicated that industrialization and material civilization changed people’s original physical phenomenon and mental phenomenon. It means that pursuit as social existence threats biological existence. Like above, such civilization smell which mattered people’s smell, industrialization, social phenomenon of capitalism making resistance between classes as metaphor is characteristic of olfactory sense in the 80’s. The fact that olfactory sense did not well appear from the cultural viewpoint is also its characteristic. This was because it concentrated on side effect owing to capitalism expansion rather than problem between social classes was the issue in the 80’s. It can be said that it showed how artificial pursuit of excessive sociological existence transformed biological existence and how it destroyed human spirit and body.
