Michael Bohn 반장군 Sec. 2 week 5/week 6

빨간 부채, 파란부채.

A long time ago, there was a grandpa charcoal maker. He was poor but lived comfortably with his wife. One day in the mountains he saw two fans, one was red and one was blue. When he opened the red fan his nose started to grow. Then, he opened the blue fan and his nose began to shrink back to normal. He was so shocked and excited, and he went home to show his wife and the grandma was very amused by the grandpa's trick. The grandpa put the fans in a chest and was thinking of ways he could make money from them. When the birthday of a rich noble came around in a nearby town he saw his chance. The grandpa took the fans and snuck into the birthday party. He started waving the red fan at the noble and the nose began to grow. the noble was scared and the grandpa said it was a disease and he knows how to fix it, because he has fixed it before. The noble said if this is true I will give you as much money as you want, so the grandpa laid the noble down. As he was waving the blue fan he said a lot of random words and the nose went down and the noble was thankful. The grandpa lived well after receiving all the money from the noble, but one day he wanted to find out how long a nose could actually grow. He started waving the red fan until his nose reached the heavens and the king of heaven was mad that humans are so greedy they even want to reach the heavens so he tied the nose to a tree. The grandpa didn't know that his nose was tied to a tree so as he waved the blue fan he started getting pulled up. On his way up the king of the heavens untied the nose from the tree and drop the grandpa to his death.


은혜 갚은 까치. (Part 1)

Sunbi was going to take a history test in Seoul so he said to himself to be careful because of the dangerous animals he might run into on the way. He checked his bow and arrow to make sure it was working fine. On the way he heard a magpie crying and when he went to check what it was he say a snake trying to eat the magpie's babies. He shot an arrow and hit the snake perfectly killing it and checked if the babies were ok. The magpie was so happy it flew around Sunbi's head because it was thankful. Sunbi told it to be careful from now on and went on his way. It was getting late and he was cold and hungry when he saw a light coming from the difference and was wondering why there was a house out there. He decided to go inside and ask if he could spend the night. When he asked around if there was anyone there he didn't see anyone but there was a woman. She said it was ok for him to spend the night. She fed him dinner and he asked her why she lived out here by herself and she said that her husband had recently passed away. That night he had trouble falling asleep.
