To win the war, the Dragon King of the East Sea ordered his son, Choribdongi,[1] to get Wang Janggun (King General), a giant born as the son of Cheonhwang Jeseok, one of the minor deities of the sky, and Jihwang Jeseok, one of the minor earth goddesses.
Finally, Choribdongi promised that if Wang Janggun came, he would be able to marry the daughter of the Dragon King.
[1] Choribdongi did make a water-free pathway underwater, and Wang Janggun met the Dragon King of the East Sea.
When he leaped in joy, Wang Janggun had to shoot the Dragon King of the West Sea's golden scale beneath his ear.
As he did so, Wang Janggun shot down the Dragon King of the West Sea with his bow and arrow.
Choribdongi whispered to Wang Janggun that his sister was carefully hidden inside an old writing box.
Wang Janggun said that he wanted the writing box, and because of his promise, the Dragon King of the East Sea had to give up his daughter.
One day, Wang Janggun hid behind a tree and observed the person cooking the meal.
This myth is similar to the Gunung Bonpuli in that a man kills something with a bow at the request of a supernatural being.
Jakjaegeon has four sons, of which the eldest is Yong Geon, the father of King Taejo of Goryeo.
