This week, on Myths and Legends, there are three stories from Korean folklore.

On the first, we'll see that it's awesome to listen to stories, but not so awesome to murder them.

On the other hand, you'll see what happens when a nobleman's lunchbox becomes a portapoddy,

and how not being able to tell the difference between a cow and a human might be deadly for your whole family.

The creature this week is a giant bird whose very bad at its job.

This is Myths and Legends, Episode 235. Goap's story.

This is a podcast where we tell stories from mythology and folklore. Some are incredibly

popular stories you might think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories that

might be new to you, but are definitely worth listening. As I said at the top of the episode,

there are three stories from Korean folklore this week. They aren't really related to anything

historical, so no need for a ton of backstory. We'll just jump right in with the kid who likes

stories. As all kids do, it just kind of matters what you do with the stories after you hear them.

What's he doing? The dad asked. The mom smiled, oh you know, that's a story back.

Story back. Yeah, you know how we, a super rich family of merchants, only have one child

and do it on him, telling him stories and stuff, the mom said. The dad nodded.

Well, I just got him a bag, and whenever he hears a new story, he saves it and puts it in the bag.

Oh, that's cute. Yeah, I guess he is always asking people to tell him a story when he meets them.

The dad said. Then, huh. But really though, what is he filling up that bag with? It's

actually looking kind of full. The mom looked to the small bag at her seven year old side that was

already puffing up like a balloon. The boy was pressing something down into the bag.

Wow, yeah, really putting those seams to work. The mother said, yeah, what is he putting in that bag?

She looked to her husband. I mean, though, as a counterpoint, he's quiet. Probably not hurting anybody.
