  The Golden Thread

  In a small village nestled between green mountains and a winding river, there lived a young woman named Mi-sook. From her earliest years, Mi-sook had shown an extraordinary talent for needlework. Her fingers moved with such precision and grace that the village elders said she must have been blessed by the spirits of her ancestral seamstresses.

  Mi-sook lived with her elderly grandmother in a modest hanok house at the edge of the village. Their home was recognizable by the colorful scraps of fabric that always hung drying on lines outside—remnants of Mi-sook’s latest projects. Though they were poor in material wealth, the two women were rich in affection for each other and in the respect of their neighbors.
