History Of South Korean Tiger

The tiger has long been associated with the Korean people and culture. It appears not only in Korean foundation mythology but also in folklore and is a popular subject in Korean art forms such as painting and sculpture. Hodori, a stylized tiger representing the Korean people, was the mascot of the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.

The myth of Dangun, the legendary founding father of Gojoseon, as told in the Samguk Yusa, or the Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms, is an ancient historical record about the tiger. A bear and a tiger, according to legend, honestly wish to become humans. By following the commandments to eat only mugwort and garlic for 100 days in the cave, the bear transformed into a woman. The tiger, however, could not carry the ordeal and fled, failing to realize its wish.
