A woodcutter outwits the horrible tiger by making him believe that he is the woodcutter s older brother who used to be a human. The tiger shows his dutifulness to his human mother by bringing gifts to her backyard and later follows her into death. This is a story that demonstrates the spirit of the Korean people: replete with courage and boundless wit. It also tells us that filial piety, or loyalty and duty to our parents, is a prime virtue which can be felt by all - even a once-wicked tiger!
