<b> Story of Hey You A Tangun fairy tale for children please read... or listen carefully if read aloud! <b> [silly picture of silly girl] Young girl with silly name came from a village far away! Her name was so silly and hard to say that everyone just call her, "That girl" and "Hey you!" Hey You was not a very bright girl, but she was veeeeeeeeeery stubborn! More stubborn than goat! <b> [drawing of silly girl with big red face] So one day Hey you was tired of everyone making fun of her name. Her face turned veeery red and veeery puffy like a pouting puffer fish, only tomato colored! She told everyone, "I will be successful, more than all of you!" And shook her fist at them with a great big "Grr!" Turning heel she ran for the hills as fast as she could! Vowing not to return until she was better than each and every one of them! So That Girl made her way to the far woods and picked a spot on the grassy floor, then started to dig! And dig! And digdigdig! She dug for three nights and three days, feeling very silly she left the village without any tools! But she was too stubborn to go back! Her hands turning raw from digging, but Hey you was too determined to stop! <b> [drawing of big shiny object in silly girl's hand] Finally when she was about to give up, she saw a glimmer from the dirt. She reached down and found a gold rock in her hand, very shiny! She cheered with glee, but then realized if there's one, there must be more! Hey You turned veeeery greedy! That Girl dug deeper down and found more gold rocks! But still stubborn like goat, she did not stop there! More and more gold in the dirt came up, and she made a small mountain nextto her. Until there were so many she realized she could not carry them home! Hey You's hard head and greedy heart would not stop there! She said, "Nay! I shan't part now, I will find a way to carry them all home later!" <b> [picture of the woods and sunrise with ridiculous <b> mountain of gold competing with it to the sky] <b> [sun is shocked] A while later, there was so much gold that it could make a king look poor! The hole Hey you dug was so deep and so frightening, that it was a pit of black abyss! Digdigdig. Diggity dig! <b> [a worried looking rock drawing] <b> [biiiig frown on rock] Hey You suddenly felt a big rock in the way of her digging and said, "Nay rock! I shan't stop now! I will find a way around you!" She dug around the rock that silently tried to warn her what lay beneath, but she would not listen! Next thing she knew, Hey You fell through the earth itself, having dug all the way to the other side in her tenacious task! <b> [small drawing of Hey You falling through Earth] "Yeeeeeeeeee!" Was the last thing anyone heard of Hey You as she fell through the earth and out the other end! Great lesson in not doing things to prove to others, but because you enjoy doing them! Greater lesson in not being stubborn or greedy, but stop and be wise. Good to teach Tangunites! Or you may fall through the earth too, which is very bad. Very bad! Whatever happened to That Girl's gold, you ask? I hear old rumor that poor man hungry and stumbling through woods looking for berries, found giant mountain of riches! <b> [happy poor man with kind eyes in illustration] Poor man was very wise though, very kind! He took the gold back and shared with his poor village, who became wealthy enough to become great big city. Then great big kingdom! Then the poor man became great king! <b> [drawing of happy King Yuri] King of Koguryo! The End! -Kuururu | |
