This article examines satirical discourse in the prose of Kim Yujeon from a linguistic and discourse-analytical perspective. Unlike traditional literary approaches, the study focuses on how satire is constructed through language structures, pragmatic strategies, and discourse mechanisms. The research analyzes linguistic means of irony, evaluative modality, lexical repetition, colloquial register, metaphorization, and pragmatic implicature. Special attention is paid to how satirical meaning emerges through interaction between explicit and implicit levels of utterance. The study demonstrates that satirical discourse in Kim Yujeon’s prose functions as a complex linguistic system of evaluation, where meaning is produced through contextual inference and pragmatic contradiction. The findings show that satire operates as a discourse strategy that encodes social criticism through linguistic ambiguity, evaluative markers, and interactional positioning. The article contributes to discourse linguistics by revealing how satirical meaning is structurally embedded in language use rather than solely in literary form.
