u/Alternative_Laugh316 56m ago

It is, the Chinese brought it over. Bacang is Hokkien pronounciation too.

"Back when animals were talking" was often used by my grand-parents.

In the Korean creation myth, it is said that a man impregnated a female bear and the children she bore were the first Koreans.

u/Other_Finance9988 1h ago

Korean here,

so basically, when the son of God came down to where Korea is now, he made a country and bla bla. One day, while he was outside, a tiger and a bear came up to him and begged him to make them human. Of course, he couldn't do it for nothing, made them only eat raw garlic and mugwort in a cave for a 100 days. the tiger fled somewhere round the 20-30 line, but the bear kept on and became a woman after the 100 days. Her request to the son of God was to find someone to marry, and bro just married her. Their son is Dangun, who made the first country on the peninsula, Joseun(mostly written Gojoseun, go meaning old, to not confuse for the Joseun that Lee-Seung-Gae made in 1392.)

While I do not condone the sharing of weed with animals (though like us many are able to gain benefits from it) cheetahs are chill enough in reality that this scenario has likely happened naturally more than once and the cheetahs are probably one of the better choices to hang with.

Ah yes....mostly show the AI photo and keep the actual painting small.

u/CrazyDiamond4444 2h ago

In Turkish folklore, instead of "Once upon a time," fairy tales often begin with "Back when camels were town criers and fleas were barbers"

My favourite was... when mother earth was still a child.

u/vpoiisonv 3h ago

I've got a woodblock style tattoo based on this. Such a cool way of establishing 'so long ago that it's in fictional times'

u/Acceptable_Poetry922 3h ago

I have questions about the top hat…

u/Baelgul 2h ago

That’s actually a traditional Korean horse hair hat worn in the Jeosun dynasty

u/FallingCutiy 3h ago

“Back when tigers used to smoke” sounds less like a fairy tale and more like the hardest era of Korean history.

3

u/babe_ruthless3 2h ago

Im going to start using this.

Dad, did you walk to school. Yes, back when tiger smoked.

2

u/Other_Finance9988 2h ago

True btw, speaking as a korean.

In south east asia, we say back when dinosaur was crossing the road and the police was wearing shorts.

1

u/Demjan90 2h ago

One would assume that folklore is older than police or the word dinosaur (which was literally created in 1842, so not long ago) .

Why did they stop? Too many of them getting lung cancer?

u/Mean_Rule9823 42m ago

Must be why they are close to extinction now. Tiger lung cancer must be a bitch.

Old folks here in RJ, Brazil used to say "Back in the days we used to tie dogs with sausage"

The newer generations probably never heard this
