Nihal Lele ，

I never knew Korean Mythology existed， so I was really eager to read this book。 After reading， I found out that Matt Clayton had gathered almost all the major myths， legends， and folktales to create an entertaining and informative book。Even though the book had all the myths， it didn't have the Korean Gods。 I know that Korean Gods are there， especially when some Korean heroes were 'Son of heaven'。 I guess Korean Gods should have been included。 Nevertheless， it was a good and interesting book。 And I never knew Korean Mythology existed， so I was really eager to read this book。 After reading， I found out that Matt Clayton had gathered almost all the major myths， legends， and folktales to create an entertaining and informative book。Even though the book had all the myths， it didn't have the Korean Gods。 I know that Korean Gods are there， especially when some Korean heroes were 'Son of heaven'。 I guess Korean Gods should have been included。 Nevertheless， it was a good and interesting book。 And I learn many facts which I didn't know before。 。。。more

This book was really interesting to me being that I have never really learned much about Korean Myths。 I enjoyed the fact that these stories were similar to ones I have heard before which got me to thinking。 Did someone take these myths as their own and use them for their own advantage。 Specifically Cinderella and a princess and a frog scenario。 Either way， these stories are still interesting of how one originally started or was meant to be and how over time have been tweaked。 It is still amazin This book was really interesting to me being that I have never really learned much about Korean Myths。 I enjoyed the fact that these stories were similar to ones I have heard before which got me to thinking。 Did someone take these myths as their own and use them for their own advantage。 Specifically Cinderella and a princess and a frog scenario。 Either way， these stories are still interesting of how one originally started or was meant to be and how over time have been tweaked。 It is still amazing to me as to how no matter who told the story or stories， everyone's still relates in little bits and pieces。 Especially with the foundation myths of the kingdoms and a 1，908 year old king。 Overall， this book was an awesome read。 I enjoyed learning the reason as to why dogs and cats hate each other。 That particular story made me laugh。 I also loved the closing section of the mythical beings。 With that being said， go find this book and read it！ Hopefully you will enjoy it too！ 。。。more
