 HEUNG-BU AND NOL-BUOnce upon a time, there lived two brothers whose names were Heung-Bu and Nol-Bu.  Nol-Bu was the elder brother who was very mean and greedy. When their parents left a large sum of money to the brothers, the greedy Nol-Bu seized all of the inheritance by force and shared nothing with Heung-Bu.
Although Heung-Bu suffered from poverty, he was always kind to everyone. One day, Heung-Bu found a wounded swallow. He took care of this swallow during the winter time. The following spring, the swallow brought a pumpkin seed to Heung-Bu for thanks. It grew into a giant pumpkin and Heung-Bu's family decided to make pumpkin soup because they were very hungry. When they cut it open, there was a lot of treasure inside. Nol-Bu and his wife were very jealous of that. So, they caught a swallow, broke the leg intentionally and demanded the pumpkin seed.
This story teaches us about the importance of brotherly love and kindness even to the small animal. |
So the swallow gave them one. 
But instead of treasure, monsters were inside. They jumped out of the pumpkin and hit Nol-Bu and his wife. They also took all their money and so the couple became very poor. Kind Heung-Bu shared his fortune with Nol-Bu who regretted his behavior and became a really good person.
