This paper discusses some researches of Chinese scholars on rural construction and examines the possibility of Korea Saemaul Undong as a paradigm for China’s rural constructing movement in the future as some scholars have proposed. The paper argues that an up to down social movement like Korea Saemaul Undong cannot solve the rural problems that China now faces with. This point of view is developed by comments on Saemaul Undong from three dimensions: the economical and political background, the way of its start-up, and the dynamics of its evolution.
