Hong Chun-Kyong When the kingodm fell, mountains and streams looked different;
How many times has the moon over the river waxed and waned since then?
Around Falling-Petals Rock, flowers still bloom;
The stormy wind from that day has never died away.

stork daddy According to Sung-Il Lee Hong Chun Kyong was a courtier of the mid-Choson Dynasty. On the day of the fall of the Paekje Kingdom, hundreds of court ladies jumped into the White Horse River from a rock known as Falling-Petals Rock, preferring death to the humiliation to be inflicted on them by the invading armies. 040501
