In this article, the linguo–cognitive interpretation of the

concept of “person (인간)” is analyzed on a broad scale through a

linguopoetic approach. The concept of person is explained as a

cognitive unit directly connected with human thinking, national

worldview, and cultural values, and several issues are identified in

understanding lexical – semantic, phraseological, and stylistic

means during linguo poetic analysis. The study scientifically

substantiates the necessity of analyzing the national–cultural

characteristics of the concept of person, its linguopoetic means of

expression, as well as its ethical and spiritual layers based on Uzbek

and Korean literary works. Such an approach demonstrates, from the

perspective of cognitive linguistics, the intrinsic connection

between language, thought, and culture in the concept of person.

The article conducts research using conceptual analysis,

comparative–linguopoetic, and cognitive–semantic methods. As a

result, the concept of person is interpreted as a central semantic unit

that represents an individualʼs personal and social essence, moral

values, and national identity. In Uzbek and Korean literary texts, this

concept is expressed through metaphorical and emotional means

characteristic of the national mentality, worldview, and system of

values. At the same time, the analysis of Korean literary works

enables students to extract the main ideas, understand different

semantic layers, and, when comparatively studying them with

Uzbek literary works, more deeply comprehend their semantic and

aesthetic dimensions.
