Learn about Korean culture through traditional folktales!
Korean Folktales for Language Learners presents 36 traditional folktales drawn from Korea's rich storytelling tradition.
The stories—which gradually increase in complexity as the book progresses—include:
- The Tiger with the Frozen Tail: A wily rabbit persuades a hungry tiger to break a hole in the ice of a frozen river to catch fish with his tail. When the hole freezes, the tiger is trapped.
- The Shepherd and the Fairy: The Heavenly Jade Emperor's daughter falls in love with a shepherd boy who plays beautiful music. She wants to marry him, but her angry father turns her into a goldfish.
- The Money in the Cauldron: When a burglar breaks into the home of a poor scholar, he finds there is nothing to steal. The burglar feels sorry for him and leaves money behind.
This entertaining anthology presents these classic stories in engaging English retellings, offering listeners an enjoyable introduction to Korean folklore and storytelling traditions. The print edition also includes the original Korean texts, vocabulary lists, exercises, audio recordings and other resources for students of the language.
