Thankyou for this! Was reading omniscient reader and there were dokkaebis in that story. Funny how the story paralleled it to real life dokkaebis on how easily they are tricked
Hello I'm south korean. I really love your video but there is one big error. The red skinned with horns is 'Oni', the monter in japanese myth. That is not dokkaebi. Actually dokkaebi don't hurt people, different with a monsters in japanese mythology like youkai.
While doing research on the subject, quite frankly it was confusing. I knew it was different than the Oni and was more like a ghost... but its representation was like an Oni even in Korean sources. Thanks for the info. I'll keep that in mind for a follow up!
This video will tell you about more other Korean mythical things. But, the translation of RU-vid subtitles will be bad. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xgpXPEM1Dmw.html
I'd also like to see more mythical creature videos! It's really hard for non-native Korean speakers to research them and this video was pretty enlightening! 천구와 삼족오에 대한 영상을 만드시면 좋겠습니다!
I find it truly deplorable.... I feel so sorry for the reality that the translation of Korean monster goblin (tokkabi) becomes Oni and the translation of Japanese monster Oni becomes a goblin (tokkabi)... [ドカビー (Dotkabi)] It would be great if we could separate it from 鬼 (Oni) by doing this... Also, I think the translation in English is the same. Scholars who study history by encountering Korean folklore say that they call blacksmiths who were active during the ancient Samhan period, and if they are blacksmiths, they call people with good hand skills. And most of the goblins are described as men who pop up in the soup, but my opinion is that the Korean word dokkabi should be translated as [Dexlaus Man Who Living At Forest] rather than [Goblin] in English-speaking countries. I think we (Korean people living in Korea) are like a runner... To hand over his or her own legacies in each hand to the next generation, each was running until the next runner was seen, narrowly and endlessly on the rocky track we were given. The next runner must be a person connected to his track, but our people living in the land of the Korean Peninsula are in a state of disarray due to the Japanese Empire. Because of the Japanese sabotage, we were delivering the wrong baton to us for a long time, and we managed to get it back thanks to the referee, the United Nations, but our baton was already covered with black stains from the Japanese hand. A lot of years were wasted immediately after liberation from the strange thing with horns to gradually become a dokkabi in the form of a handsome man. In the process of studying, getting to know, and understanding the original appearance of a goblin, I almost couldn't help but get angry. The Japanese settlement is... Even now, I feel that there are many people who think that the horns and colorful skin are goblins (tokkabi). Please remember that goblins are not just fantasies and visions. There is a very strict difference between Korean goblins (tokkabi) and Japanese goblins (tokkabi) in that the goblins (tokkabi) after the founding of the Joseon Dynasty did not have horns, and in Japan, they are called oni and are rare objects with horns. Oni is said to be a cruel creature who has a very violent temper and commits murder with a withdrawal, while Korean goblins (tokkabi) are said to like hanging out with people, are far more specialized in playing such as ssireum, and are said to be helpful when they see humans who are in trouble and can't help them. How can we compare these Korean goblins (tokkabi) by identifying them with those of Japan? I think it is right for us to once again work on the complete restoration of culture. There are still many stupid people who recognize that Korean goblins (tokkabi) and Japanese oni are there, and I think this is a shameful loophole in our heritage that must be corrected. Restoring the tainted culture is the job of our Korean people, but I think the wrong perception is still underneath the world. I hope it will be fixed from the beginning... Thank you if anyone has read the long post. There may be a lot of shortcomings because I used a translator, but I hope that the knowledge I know about parts of my country's occult will spread out to the world and then again to my own people... Thank you.
@@loonytricky There's no similar thing. Let Dokkebi be Dokkebi. Goblin is related evil being in western culture. On the other hand, Dokkebi is not an evil being. All it likes to do is to gamble or bet with human counter part in honest competition. Dokkebi hates blood and violence. How can this be translated to golbin?
