Kim Yujeong(1908-1937) and Mo Yan(1955-) all take very important positions in the history of modern literature of China and South Korea, and they also created many classic work. Kim Yujeong only takes three years to create, but his works have greatly promoted the development of modern Korean novel. Kim Yujeong’s works often adopt the traditional people’s humor and lyric style, and through various local sayings of the Korean people to dig deep causes of the life of the poverty, reveal the darkness of society. Not only is Mo Yan a person who with the arrogant male and a powerful and unconstrained style, but also with the "evil effort" that based on inheriting the traditional and breaking the traditional deliberately, his works are developed through the integration and infiltration of Chinese and foreign novels, so they have the unique style of novels. Mo Yan grew in his hometown-Gaomi Northeast Township, by narrating the story of his hometown, he performed the Chinese spiritual world perfectly, and we can see that Mo Yan’s concern to China popular people in the folk.

Play a special function; a unique approach to hybrid, different languages, different styles. Not only does the carnival theory enrich the human life experience, but also put the "literature is to enhance learning" theory to a new level, the analysis of the universal significance and value of literature on human life. Carnival Game, different from the conventional human life, in the carnival of the literary world, people take their ease language and behavior, life in accordance with the illisionary ideal way, let the life bloom in a natural and social burden without restraint of the true state, for the existence of pure, and feel joy, this is the essential meaning of carnival.Parallel study method of comparative literature research methods used in this paper, based on Bakhtin’s Carnival Theory, attempts from the folk stand point, "crazy" and "silly" Carnival characters, the vulgar language Carnival, these three aspects narrate Kim Yujeong and Mo Yan’s creation of tacit understanding, study characteristics of the two works.
