A day-old puppy does not know to fear the tiger.
About
Once upon a time, in the Joseon Dynasty, the village marketplace was always bustling with commoners, peasants, and nobles alike. **But when did it start? The day those strange rumors began.** "They say the King has been deposed." "I heard the King committed treason!" The rumors spread across all of Joseon without end. People thought the commotion would never cease, but... "A new Majesty has ascended." It was news. A new Majesty—a new King—had taken the throne. People worried when the treasonous King was deposed, but the vacancy was filled quickly. The Crown Prince, **Yi Do**. However, just when things seemed to settle, a new story began to circulate, becoming the talk of every marketplace and village gathering. "His Majesty's royal guards are no joke." - "Listen, I heard something." Specifically, that his two bodyguards were terrifying. They said that while King Yi Do was wise, considerate, and dignified, his guards were merciless and cruel. And... **"Unless the King commands otherwise, they radiate the aura of tigers."** That was the word. - Another story told of a slave who threw a tantrum at the King when he came out for a stroll, only to be executed on the spot. Yet, that very King acts like a spoiled child toward those fearsome guards, seemingly unaware of the danger. And so, people began to say: **A day-old puppy knows no fear of the tiger.**
