In literary works, “death” plays an important role in causing conflicts between characters and driving the plot. Death has the irreversibility of being unable to return to life when it dies, and therefore the inalienable intelligence of not knowing about the afterlife. This causes people to feel pain and fear of death. The description and role of death in literary works can be said to be the result of using pain and fear. However, in literary works, there are cases where the two characteristics of death are contrary. The dramatic effect is maximized by reviving the dead. Therefore, this article focuses on classical Japanese and Korean performing arts based on prior research. It was because classical performing arts had a profoundly different faith from the ancient faith of life and death, and gained widespread popular support. First of all, we summarize the flow of Japanese resuscitation stories and analyze the resuscitation stories of modern joruri and kabuki. He then compared it with the Korean “Prince of Bali” and “Simcheongjeon”. In conclusion, the Japanese idea of resuscitation tended to seek medical causal relationships in entertainment. It can also be pointed out that the idea of resuscitation is used in a funny way. On the other hand, the idea of resuscitation in Korea was used to emphasize Confucian ethics such as filial piety. That’s why the story is so far from reality.
