Brief introduction of flower girl

Hualang is a state-funded organization for the education of elite male youth in the ancient kingdom, Silla, Korea. Hua Lang is translated as "flower girl", "blooming youth" or "elite youth" (sometimes translated as a rather misleading "knight"), and they swear allegiance to the country, family and each other. Boys often meet in places with beautiful natural scenery, especially in sacred mountains and rivers. They paint their faces, sing and dance, and wear jewel shoes. The organization aims to prepare young men for their future roles in society. Most of the most important politicians and administrators in the state have been educated in Hualang.

Formed at least in the 6th century A.D., Hualang is composed of teenage boys who follow the ideal known as pungwolto or the "romantic way". At present, it is not clear what this means, but from Korean historical materials such as Samguk sagi and Samguk yusa, it is known that these boys follow religious and martial arts teachings, music, dance, ethics and a lot of nationalism, including contempt for death. Only sons of nobles are eligible to join, and the real purpose of this state-sponsored system is likely to enable the ruling class to select the most talented young people and designate them as future positions in the state machine.

members of hwarang follow the teachings of religion and martial arts, as well as the educational combination of music, dance, ethics and a lot of nationalism.

Like the wider South Korea, the religious part of education is a mixture of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and there may be shamanism elements that have been practiced for a long time on the peninsula. The Samguk Yusa added that the boy also studied five relationships, six arts, academic career in Three Gorges, and * * * service, which contained all the rules of moral behavior, and prepared six laws for students to be lifelong civil servants. At the beginning of the 7th century, the code of honor of sesok ogye, created by Buddhist monk Wangwang, best illustrates the strong connection between Hualang. The country's demand for them is:

to serve the king faithfully.

Serve parents faithfully.

Always show loyalty to your friends.

never retreat in the final battle.

never kill people unnecessarily.

People don't know the exact organization of Hualang except that the leader of a single group composed of hundreds of young people has the title of kukson or "National Fairy". He was selected from the strict social class of Silla Kingdom and the true bone or Jin Ge class of the bone grade system. The kukson is assisted by several Buddhist scholars and monks who may carry out the instructions. The patron of the group is Maitreya Buddha (the coming Buddha), also known as "friendly". In fact, members consider themselves the reincarnation of the Buddha. The flower lang is divided into subgroups with Buddhist-related names, such as the "Dragon Flower Tree Belt" (referring to the tree where Maitreya first arrived on the earth).

Apart from dancing and singing being important elements and pledging loyalty to other members, there is a lack of details about the initiation ceremony held by boys. Hua Lang's members and ideals are praised in Korean indigenous folk songs. In fact, many of them were written by team members. In this example, it was written by Tugo and titled Mo Chukchirang ka or "Ode to Knight Chukchi". In 692-72 AD, the author praised his master:

All sentient beings were sad

in the past spring;

Your once white and bright face

is about to cross a deep ditch.

I have to catch a glimpse of you

even for a great moment.

My burning heart can't rest at night

In the cavity of Ai Jie.

(Li, PH, 72)

Some of the most famous former members of Hua Lang are General Jin Yuxin, and his sons won SUL and Kwanchang, who gave him the courage to live against Baekje (Baekje in 66 CE) in World War I.. With the rise of Korean nationalism and the discovery of a manuscript named "Hwarang segi" in the 198s, people became interested in this topic again, and even launched a new TV series in South Korea in December 216, based on "Hua Lang" and "Carrying the title".
