Korean myths are a living and evolving part of society, in both the North and South. With the export of Korean film across the globe, K-pop, fashion, K-dramas, literature and comics there is a growing desire to understand the folklore and mythical underpinnings of contemporary Korean Culture. Insu and Bella Fenkl bring together a wealth of knowledge of both the new and the old, the traditional and the modern to guide the reader through this fascinating history and help understand the people, their traditions and culture. From the Changsega (‘Song of Creation’) sung by shamans, to the gods, goddesses and monsters who inhabit the cosmos, including the god Mireuk, creator of the world, and the giant Grandma Mago, who was able to create mountains from the mud on her skirt, these myths have been disseminated for centuries and continue to resonate in popular culture today.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 196mmItem Length: 129mmItem Weight: 470gAuthor: Heinz Insu Fenkl, Bella Myŏng-wŏl Dalton-FenklGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Language & Reference, HistoryBook Series: MythsRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
