우리는 김영관이 월드 와이드 웹에 올려놓은 이 른바 <웹소설>을 찾을 수 있다(http:/membersiWoridne/yengdm/). 그는[버 노인들], [무목적시대],[원시인],[야만의 풍습],[생존포로],[황색도시],[해 ]과 같은 7편의 작품들 제목이 하일라이트된 자신의 홈페이지를 가지고 론 이 작품들은 다지털화한 픽션들로서, (디지털) 하이퍼픽션은 아니다. 이에 인쇄해서 읽는 것이 오히려 더 편한 상태인 것이다.

1997, 정형철, “하이퍼픽션이란 무엇인가 [What is Hyperfiction?]”, in 오늘의 문예비평 [Today's Literary Criticism], volume 26, page 45:

We can find the so-called <web fiction> that Kim Yeonggwan uploaded to the World Wide Web (http:/membersiWoridne/yengdm/). He has his own home page where the titles of seven works are highlighted, such as [Old Burying Men], [The Age of Aimlessness], [Cavemen], [Barbaric Customs], [Surviving Prisoners], [Yellow City], [Sea], which are digitalized fiction, not (digital) hyperfiction. Therefore, it is more convenient to print them out and read them.
