DanGun – The father of Korea

About 4,400 years ago,


there was a king in heaven.
He had a son, 환웅 .
환웅 always wanted to go to
a beautiful land.
The king sent his son to the land
with three men.
Their names were
Cloud, Rain and Wind.
환웅 went to the land
and the people welcomed him.
They were happy.
There was a bear and a tiger
that lived in a cave.
They wanted to be human.
환웅 gave them garlic and herb to eat
and told them to stay in the cave for
100 days.
They ate only garlic and herb,
and prayed everyday.
The tiger didn’t like it and he
left.
The bear cried but suffered for
100 days.
At last,
The bear became a woman.
Her name was 웅녀 .
환웅 and 웅녀 got married.
They had a son after 9 months.
He was 단군 and he founded 고조
선.
It was the birth of Korea.
