When Gang Ho-gyeong, the oldest ancestor of Taejo went to hunting in Mount Pyeon Na (Hangul:편나), he met a goddess of the mountain. She offered him to get married with her and rule theocracy together. However, Gang Ho-gyeong already had a wife. According to a story, he visited his wife in his dream, she got pregnant and Gang Chung was born.[1] Once day, Par Wong (Korean: 팔원; Hanja: 八元), who was a Feng Shui master in Silla visited Gang Ho-gyeong and said “If you plant pine trees in Mount Song ak (Korean: 송악; Hanja: 松岳) and hide rocky wall, a person who unify three Korea will be born.” Gang Ho-gyeong followed his prediction and planted pine trees covered rocky wall and Taejo was born.[2]
