[KoreaUrbanLegend] Jangsanbeom

Image
  Jangsanbeom is a cryptid resembling a tiger that is said to appear in the mountains of Jangsan in Busan, South Korea. Similar to America’s Slender Man or Japan’s Kunekune, this creature has gained notoriety through internet communities. With a sleek design and spiritual abilities, Jangsanbeom is a creation based on the experiences of modern individuals who have lost their way in the forest. Initially, it gained attention from two reports of unidentified creatures combined in a post on a site called "Jambangi." This led to nearly 40 sightings and speculative discussions on the occult board of the website "Sredik," prompting various explorations and research. Jangsanbeom is described as having crimson skin and luxurious, long fur, resembling a tiger’s skeletal structure. Its fur is so beautiful and long that it often leads people to perceive Jangsanbeom as human rather than a tiger. Although it walks on four legs, its fur evokes the image of human hair. The creature...

 On January 23, 1971, a hijacking incident occurred when a Korean Air Fokker F27, with 55 passengers and 5 crew members aboard, was hijacked while en route from Sokcho to Gimpo.

Kim Sang-tae, holding bombs, threatened the pilots to change the plane's course toward North Korea. The pilots pretended to comply with the hijacker’s demands, but in reality, they were waiting for emergency intervention from the South Korean Air Force. Two F-5 fighter jets were dispatched to intercept the aircraft. In the meantime, the cabin crew, incl...

[WorldUrbanLegend] The Spider Bite

  The legend of spider bites or red spots is a modern urban legend that emerged in Britain during the 1970s. This legend tells the story of a young woman from a cold northern region, such as the UK or New York City, who goes on vacation to a warm southern place, like Mexico. While sunbathing on the beach, she is bitten on the cheek by a spider. The bite swells, and she hurriedly returns home for treatment. She asks the doctor to drain the pus, but during the draining process, hundreds of small spiders emerge, shocking her into a state of hysteria. The spider bite legend appeared as a modern legend in Europe during the 1970s but reflects earlier forms of the "boosome serpent" story type. The term "boosome serpent" originates from Nathaniel Hawthorne's 1843 short story "The Egoist, or the Boosome Serpent," and it is used to generalize legends where a creature enters a human body and sometimes breeds within it. In boosome serpent legends, the creature typ...
