Features of Han Yu’s works:

1. In terms of subject selection:

Han Yu’s poems are good at capturing and expressing The image is full of abnormalities, majestic and rich in imagination. He likes to describe the wonders of nature and the wonders of the human world. Even among common themes, Han Yu likes to be original and unexpectedly discover things that have never been written by others. For example, "Pheasant with Arrows" grasps the images of pheasants, arrows and generals from the dynamics, and the painting is done in one go.

2. Writing techniques:

Han Yu is good at using the hand of imagination to capture and express a variety of images, with majestic momentum and rich imagination. For example, the concept of "Luhun Mountain Fire" is even more unique. It was originally a forest fire, but Han Yu described it as a fire god entertaining guests. The scene was extremely spectacular. The imagination of Korean poetry is even richer, and the metaphors and examples are very unique.

3. In terms of word selection and sentence making:

Han Yu advocated "getting rid of statements" when writing poems, and emphasized careful consideration of words when writing poems. He not only likes to use ancient words and idioms, but also likes to use colloquial expressions, striving to create something new. This is first reflected in the fact that many of Han Yu's poems are roughly the same as prose in content and form.

In these poems, Han Yu not only made a lot of comments, but also deviated from the track of poetry in form. For example, the poem "Nanshan" uses the extravagant parallelism technique of Han Fu to describe the changes in the scenery of Zhongnan Mountain in four seasons and the various shapes of the mountains. This is one of this expression.
