Hello, The time for Lanny news is back!

Have you ever heard of Dangun myth?
It’s the founding myth of Korea,
In the past, tigers and bears sought a god called Hwanwoong to become humans.
So Hwanwoong taught them that if you go into a cave for 21 days and eat garlic and mugwort without seeing the light, you will become human.

Tiger couldn’t stand and ran away,
Meanwhile, Bear endured to the end and became a human woman, and married Hwanung and have a son named Dangun who is meant to be a founder of Korea.

I hope everyone knows about this, right? Because it often appears in Korean history time.
It’s all?

No, actually, there is a cafe made with this story as a motif, so I’m going to introduce it to you

It’s a cafe called Ungnyeo’s Temple,
It’s really the hip place in Insa-dong recently.
Let’s take a picture!
Don’t you wanna come?
