The book I want to introduce is Hong Kil Dong.
It tells the story of Hong Kil Dong, an illegitimate son of a nobleman and a maid, who becomes a hero and a king. He learns martial arts and etiquette, but he is not accepted by his father and society. He leaves his home and leads a band of outlaws who fight against the corrupt and powerful. He also has magical skills that help him escape from the king’s pursuit. He finally flies away to a foreign land where he builds his own kingdom.
I enjoyed reading this book because it is exciting and imaginative. It also shows the social problems and conflicts of Joseon era, such as class discrimination, corruption, and oppression. I admire Hong Kil Dong’s courage and justice, but I also feel sorry for his pain and loneliness.
It is clear that this book is to be a masterpiece of Korean literature. (This book is clear to be a masterpiece of Korean literature.) It is not only entertaining, but also meaningful and inspiring.
It is important for us to read this book and learn from it.
