Park Yeon-suk et al.: Collection of Japanese Folktales: Otogizoshi

The work on Otto Gizozosyung is a rather complex and fascinating topic of Autogizo's reading fragments. There are stories of the affection of a man and woman in the background of a noble society, of priests who emerged from the influence of a well-known Buddhist in times of great war, and of the true story of the cultural and intellectual rise of the glory of the merchant who was at that time associated with the masochy of the small head of the deceased. There is also the story of a happy ending, where, among other things, people get ahead and get rich and rich, married to their masters, as though they were in trouble because of other physical defects, economic poverty, and poor parents. On the other hand, unlike the days of a young man in the glory of his life, there are stories of a prostitute dying and dying at the end of her life, and of a pathological story where he learns to be rich and deaf, and then he tries to get a share of it, and he laughs. The stories of these common people are a difficult replay of life’s facets, and they are valuable works that can read the Japanese low-level philosophy of life and living and culture of their ancient ancestors.
