The Korean spiritual prototype hidden in the Princess Bari myth shows compromise, harmony, and tolerance rather than confrontation and conflict found in other myths. The spiritual prototype of "Bari" is found in the real lives of the adopted children who are sent overseas as well as "Daejangkeum", a protagonist in a famous Korean drama. A number of previous studies, mostly done by mass media experts, focuses on the current situation of Korean cultural industries, cultural contents of each genre, market trend, and cultural policies. A humanistic research method is needed to help produce cultural industries and contents with artistic value, keeping pace with the development of digital technologies. An accumulation of humanistic researches would help revitalize various cultural industries. For example, aesthetic imagination and originality is employed to alter narrative structures. To make an animated cartoon about the Princes Bari Myth, one is expected to discover the unique and distinct features of Korean myths by comparing them with those in myths of other cultures.
