A NOTE TO THE FRIENDS OF KOREA
Everywhere on earth the fairy world of each country is older and perhaps more enduring than the one we see and feel and tread upon.
So I tell in this book the folk lore of the Korean people, and of the
behavior of the particular kind of fairies that inhabit the Land of
Morning Splendor. Yet, if I live long enough, I shall write the wonderful history of the Korean nation and civilization, which once so enriched Asia, and made possible the modern Јарап such as we know today, of which fact the literature and art of both countries bear ample witness.
