Peach blossom (Tao-yuan) is commonly depicted as a utopia that is isolated from the politics. This peach blossom imagery develops from Tao Yuan Ming's portrayal of a peach blossom in his famous poetry "The Peach Colony" ("Tao Hua Yuan Shi with Ji"). However, a utopia isolated from the politics is not the only cultural connotation that the peach blossom imagery suggests. In addition, the literary works comprising of the peach blossom imagery is not exclusively created by ancient Chinese poets, but also frequently seen in ancient Korean's compositions. Based on the above concerns, this paper directs its focus on the literary pieces comprising of the peach blossom imagery, and analyzes how ancient Chinese and Korean poets illustrate the peach blossom with an elaboration on the landscape, the upheaval and the retiracy, all of which are based on Tao Yuan Ming's portrayal. On the other hand, other than being influenced by Tao Yuan Ming, a noticeable amount of literary works went beyond the mere acceptance of Tao Yuan Ming's portrayal, and this is evident in two situations.
