There once lived a woman in an isolated house set far in a Valley. This
woman had a son, Hae-Soon, and a daughter, Dal-Soon. One day, as she was leaving
to go to the town market, she said to her children, “Hae-Soon, Dai-Soon, lock
the door when I leave. A tiger may come down from the mountain, so don’t open
the door until I come back.”
Tigers appeared frequently in that valley, and the mother was afraid that
A tiger might eat her children. After she qave the children strict instructions,
She went over the hill to town.
The two children waited for their mother to return. After it got dark,
somebody knocked on the door.
“Who is it ?” ask Hae-Soon.
“Hae-Soon, Dal-Soon, it’s your mother. Open the door.”
“Is it you, Mother ?”
Dal-Soon was so glad to hear her mother’s voice that she was about to
Unlock the door. Hae-Soon, however, did not think it really sounded like his
Mother’s voice. He stopped Dal-Soon from opening the door and said, “You say
You are our moher, but your voice is different from our mother’s.”
Then the person outside replied, "What do you mean my voice is different ?
It is only because I am hoarse from shouting, 'Buy mountain vegetables ! Buy
mountain vegetables !' so loundly in the market."
Dal-Soon asked, "If you are really our mother, let us see your eyes
through this hole in the door."
A big, red eye peered into the room through the hole. It was not their
mother 's eye. A tiger, knowing. That there were only children in the house, had
come to eat them.
"Why are your eyes so red? Our mother has very beautiful eyes," Hae-Soon asked.
Then the tiger outside the door said, "children ! My eyes turned red
because of the ground red peper I bought in the market."
Then Dal-Soon said, "If you are really our mother, show us your hand."
The tiger put his paws inside the door. They were covered in yellow fur.
"Our mother's hand are soft and white," Dal-Soon said. "Why are yours
yellow like this?"
"It's only because I worked in the garden at my old home in town," the
tiger lied slyly.
The innocent children believed the tiger and opened the door. The tiger
looked like their mother because he was wearing her clothes and had her towel
tied around his head. He has eaten their mother in the mountains and taken her
clothes.
"You waited a long time for me, and you look hungry," said the tiger as
he went into the kitchen. "Wait a minute, and I'll prepare your supper."
Having deceived the children, he was deciding which one to eat first. The
children, however, saw the tiger's long tail sticking out from under its skirt
"Heavens ! It's a tiger !" they cried.
