Five strange stories that traverse this world and the next, the Dragon Palace and hell. It is a novel written by Kim Si-seup, a scholar of the early Joseon Dynasty. This <Geumo Sinhwa> is a faithful translation that easily unravels difficult Confucian and Buddhist background knowledge in sentences, preserves the context of old stories quoted by Kim Si-seup, and the romantic rhythm of poetry, conveying the charm of the classics. Life Pattern Korea. Mysterious and fantastic illustrations visually represent the flow of the story and enhance the immersion of young readers.
The commentary focuses on the changes of the five protagonists through encounters with ghosts, fairies, King Yama, and the Dragon King. Life Pattern Korea. It does not view the choice to leave the secular world as a futile ending. It interprets it as a will to dream of a new world by holding hands with a different being, and reads it as a way for us, not heroes, to build a solid life. It is understood as a work that can learn how to protect oneself in reality where failure is more common than success. #GeumoSinhwa #KimSiSeup #JoseonDynasty #KoreanClassicLiterature #KoreanCulture #WorldLiterature #Bookstagram #ConfucianBuddhistLiterature
