The Golden Crown
In the foothills of Mount Seorak, nestled between ancient pine forests and terraced rice fields, there lay a small village called Hyanggol. The village was known for its skilled artisans and the beautiful jade-green stream that flowed through its center. The people of Hyanggol lived simple but contented lives, working hard during the day and gathering to share stories in the evenings.
Among the villagers was a boy named Joon-ho, the son of a poor farmer. Unlike the other children who dreamed of adventure or wealth, Joon-ho had always been fascinated by the old tales of Korean kings and queens. He would spend hours listening to the village elder, Harabeoji Kim, recount stories of wise rulers and their magnificent palaces in ancient Joseon.
