Activity 1: Examine it!

Directions: Read the short Korean story entitled, The Vanity of the Rat. Then, answer the questions that follow.
The Vanity of the Rat

A long time ago, there was a rat couple who had a daughter. They had no other children so they gave her
everything. The time came when their daughter is ready for marriage so they wanted the best spouse for her. They
looked for a rat that could best fit for her daughter but to no avail. One day, the father said that the sun would be a
good husband for his daughter because it is the most powerful and bright. They asked the sun if he could marry their
daughter. The sun felt honored but refused because he said that the cloud is more powerful since the sun is powerless
with it. They climbed up a mountain to see the cloud. They asked the same thing, in which the cloud also refused
because the wind is more powerful since the cloud goes wherever he blows. They found the wind in a grove of trees
and asked to marry their daughter. Likewise, the wind also refused because he can blow everything but the stone.
They head to the stone and still asked the same question. The stone refused. The reason is although the wind cannot
move him, the rats and moles could since they can burrow under the stone’s feet and the latter fall over. In the end,
their daughter married a rat.
