A Flower Tree (Korean: 꽃나무) is a poem written by the Korean author Yi Sang and published in the magazine <Catholic Youth (가톨닉靑年)> in July 1933. It is one of the representative works in surrealist and introspective literature from the 1930s. The poem explores themes of self-identity, the desire for self-fulfillment, and the frustration of unattainable ideals.^[1]
