About This Item
Woodcutter outwits a horrible tiger by making him believe that he is the woodcutter's older brother who used to be a human. The tiger shows his dutifulness to his human mother by bringing gifts in her backyard and later follows to die after her death.
The story Woodcutter and Tiger Brother shows us the spirit of Korean people filled with courage and wit. It also tells us that "filial piety", or faithfulness to one's parents, is the prime virtue of Korean people in which human beings and even a tiger believed in their spirits.
