This is an ancient story, as old as human greed and the wit to subvert it. #korean #folklore #wit #humor open.substack.com/pub/huckkahn...

Now more than ever.

Love. Is. Love. 🌈✨

Today, I've brought a Korean folktale about fart. A formidable one. #folklore #folktale #mythology open.substack.com/pub/huckkahn...

How many did you already know? No. 6 was the only one I already knew.

1. Breaking News: Donald Trump has signed an executive order targeting trans youth and teachers in schools who teach for them. It goes after "social transition" and threatens arrests. I will go through line by line, as I have the last 3 nights. Find the EO here: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Finally watched Solo Leveling. It's everything I wanted SAO to be. Rad as hell.

This is a dire time, folks. However, if we haven’t drifted away too far from the horror of the past, the solution shall also be still in our reach, maybe disguised in some funny folklore from the past. #folklore #Korean #fearnot #writingcommunity open.substack.com/pub/huckkahn...

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Do you like Korean food? I have some stories to serve with the dishes. The first story is about some poisonous plants we enjoy daily! #korean #bibimbop #folklore #history #wiritingcommunity huckkahng.substack.com/p/the-bi-bim...

Attended my first meeting of BIPOC writers. Such an amazing conversation! #writingcommunity #bipoc #awcs

I attended a workshop for writers called “Networking Sucks”. It was really good, everyone was so eager and considerate, and I was the one who left first quite silently… 😭 #writingcommunity #introvert

I noticed some of you are looking for good #recipes for your #fantasy world. Well, I thought I could help as I know some tales about #Korean #cuisine. Since our worlds are made of words, what could be better than menus with special #stories? Would you be interested? Please comment. #writingcommunity

What's the point of being rich if you can't afford to do the right thing.

I got accepted to SFWA! Super excited to join a community of fantasy/sci-fi folks. I got in through translating a bunch of novels, but I’m hoping to be recognized as a writer soon, starting with my guide to Korean myths and folklore. Here’s to more writing and learning ahead! #WritingCommunity #SFWA

Hooray for #BluePitHype ! Thrilled to join an event like this for the first time. Can’t wait to connect with you all! I’m a fantasy writer in love with mythology and history. Currently, I’m working on a non-fiction book to ignite writers’ inspiration with the flintlock of Korean myths and folklore!

Gee! That's a Nay Story Interested in a hunter's very long one night stand in the mountain? Check out this Korean folklore with a pinch of humor. #folklore #myths #Korean #fantasy #WritingCommunity open.substack.com/pub/huckkahn...

Day 2 of #BluePitHype Sorry I'm late but I wanted to share this picture. I'm writing a non-fiction dealing with Korean folklore and myths (surprised that there are many Chinese and Japanese myths available but not many Korean). Korean ones are... hilarious like this tiger smoking a pipe.

This is a Po Soo, traditional hunter and frequent star in Korean folkore, in his full gear. They used old-fashioned flintlocks, whose range was only 60 yards but had no problem hunting tigers. They also wore snowshoes, which you can see dangling from his back. #folklore #WritingCommunity #fantasy
