Korean creation narratives

  • ... that according to one Korean creation narrative, there was a time when noodles grew on shrubs and rice cakes grew on leaves? Source: Kim Heonsun 1994, Hanguk-ui changse sinhwa, p. 383, quoting the primary source Sunsan-chugwon: "국수나무에는 국수 열고 이래 떡갈 잎에 떡이 열고 火食으로 아니먹기 때문에" ("noodles grew on lace shrubs and rice cakes grew on the leaves of oaks and people did not eat cooked food")
  • Reviewed: My second DYK, no QPQ needed
  • Comment: The inline citation technically doesn't appear at the end of the sentence itself within the article. But the article directly quotes the entire paragraph of the primary source in which the sentence appears with <blockquote>, and the inline citation at the end of the quoted paragraph includes the original Korean-language text for the entire paragraph (this sentence included).

  • This is an impressive new article and a newly promoted GA. It is new enough and long enough, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. No QPQ is needed here. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:28, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
