A tiger wanders aimlessly through the streets of South Korea, its eyes full of sadness and loneliness. No one on the street could see her, except the little girl, who regarded her as a cute big cat.
The tiger did not hurt the little girl, she was just a soul who could not find a way home, and only innocent children could see her.
The owner of the Druna Hotel, Full Moon, took pity on this lonely soul and took her in.
Tigers were transported from the north to South Korea to be given as pets by the president of the Chamber of Commerce. The tiger is homesick, does not eat or drink and dies alone. After her death, she was made into a specimen for people to visit, which made it impossible for the tiger's undead to leave, so they kept wandering the world in search of a way home.
The undead enter the president's dream every night and pounce on the president and shatter the glass. The president is tormented by nightmares, and often feels lonely and sad for no reason, and is in great pain.
Full Moon took this opportunity to ask the president to give her landscape paintings in her home. Finally, the full moon guides the tiger into the painting, returns to the hometown that the tiger misses, and gets a rest in peace.
The touching story comes from the Korean drama "Druna Hotel", which unfolds a series of soul ferry stories with the theme of saving the obsessive "ghost guests". "The Soul of a Tiger" is one of the stories.
The story is very touching, a large number of fans gave high scores, originally thought that this is a completely fictional story, in fact, the tiger in the play has a real prototype.
In 1999, the Battle of Yeonpyeong broke out between the two Koreas, losing several ships and killing more than 100 people. In order to ease the tense atmosphere between the two sides, the leaders of the TWO Koreas and the DPRK have made efforts to express goodwill to each other. Against this backdrop, North Korea donated a tiger to Seoul National University Park, the last Siberian tiger to be captured on the Korean Peninsula, named "Wolf Forest."
The tiger is the god of the people of the Korean Peninsula, and the worship of the tiger has a long history, and even the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games chose the tiger as an auspicious object. And the badge of the Korean Football Association is the Taiji Tiger. As a gift for inter-Korean exchanges, there is nothing more suitable than a tiger.
But Wolf Grove was unsatisfied in Korea, had no partner, and died of depression and melancholy all day. "Druna Hotel" borrows this tiger to express the continuous blood and kinship of the Korean Peninsula.
In the play, the owner of the Druna Hotel, Full Moon, was a Goguryeo remnant of the Silla period before his death, and was punished by the gods for being framed and killed, and his flesh was bound by the moon-age tree in the Druna Hotel, and he spent 1300 years in the human world in a state of immortality.
The full moon is bound to the same fate as the tiger, so the full moon decides to save the tiger's soul. The chairman gave the full moon landscape painting, and the mountain in the painting is actually Changbai Mountain, which is also the "Baekdu Mountain" in the north Korean mouth. Wolf Grove was arrested at Mount Baekdusan. Therefore, the full moon can make the tiger wolf forest return to his hometown of Baekdu Mountain.
The Druna Hotel also has a prototype, which is located in the Modern History Museum of Mokpo City. It is a venue built by the Japanese consulate and a building that contains ethnic hatred.
"Druna Hotel" uses elements of real events to show people that the division of human boundaries is cruel, and it has caused the separation and suffering of countless beings. Peace is a dream that cannot be attained by mankind.
The TV series expresses a faint sadness over the current situation of the split between the DPRK and the ROK. Ferrying the soul of the wolf forest is an expression of hope for the future of the two places.
Let's look at the lonely tiger soul again.
