Historical legends

Jeju Island is a "myth island". According to legend, three immortals gushed out of the ground, named Liang, Gao and Fu respectively. One day, they found a wooden box floating from the East China Sea. After opening it, there was another stone box, and an angel wearing a red belt and purple clothes came to open it, and three virgins in Tsing Yi appeared.

The emissary claimed to be a Japanese emissary. These three women were Japanese princesses who came to marry three immortals with the seeds of cattle, horses and grains. So the three immortals married the three women, and then they built a village and began to live for a long time. The famous scenic spot "Samsung Cave" in Jeju is a historical relic of this myth.
