안녕하세요, 여러분! 오늘은 한국의 독특한 전통 음식, 미역국에 대해 이야기해 볼게요. 혹시 한국 사람들이 생일날 꼭 미역국을 먹는 이유를 들어본 적 있나요? 이 음식은 단순한 국이 아니라, 깊은 문화적 의미와 역사를 담고 있답니다.

먼저, 미역국의 기원을 살펴볼게요. 옛날, 삼국시대 때 고구려 사람들이 고래가 출산 후 미역을 먹는 모습을 관찰했다고 해요. 고래들이 미역을 통해 건강을 회복하는 것을 보고, 사람들도 출산 후에 미역을 먹기 시작했죠. 미역은 철분과 칼슘이 풍부해서 산모의 회복을 돕는 음식으로 자리 잡았습니다.

그런데 이 전통이 발전하면서 생일 문화와도 연결되었어요. 생일날 미역국을 먹는 건 자신을 낳아주신 어머니를 기리고, 그분의 희생에 감사하는 의미예요. 그래서 한국 사람들에게 생일날 미역국은 꼭 먹어야 하는 상징적인 음식이 되었죠.

재미있는 점은, 미역국과 관련된 속어도 있다는 거예요. 한국에서는 "미역국을 먹다"라는 표현이 실패를 뜻하기도 해요. 미역이 미끄러운 식감을 가지고 있기 때문에, 기회가 미끄러지듯 사라졌다는 의미에서 나온 표현이죠. 그리고 아주 독특한 욕도 있는데요, 바로 “너네 엄마가 널 낳고 먹은 미역국이 아깝다”라는 말이에요. 이건 "엄마의 고생이 헛되었다"는 뜻인데, 절대 사용하지 않는 게 좋겠죠? 😅

여러분의 나라에도 생일이나 출산 후 먹는 특별한 음식이 있나요? 아니면 실패를 표현하는 독특한 말이 있다면 공유해 주세요!

Tai Chi slows down Parkinson's disease

This story uses words from '1000 most common words in English'. 


The morning comes quickly because Lemon has slept like a rock. He wakes up remembering his dream: an effortless glide through golden gates guided by angles and eagles.

“Mum, dad, I need to talk to you,” says Lemon. “I’m leaving… I’m going to go find this paradise. I need to see it for myself. I want to feel the soil between my toes and taste the unknown insects.” 

His parents are quiet for a moment. They see in his eyes that this is very important, and they only want what is best for their child. 

His mother speaks first. “You are a sweet child, little Lemon. You have a wonderful mind, brave and curious. You know you’re always welcome here. Our nest is always open.” 

“Mum, of course I’m coming back! I love you two so much and this is my home.” 

Lemon’s father says, “It has been said that there comes a point in a bird’s life when he needs to go beyond the mountains… It happened to my father and my father’s father, but never for me. That time never came. I grew up during the worst winter in known history. I had to work and sacrifice—there was no time for adventures… so, go on, Lemon. Get out there and live your life!” 

“You are the best parents a bird could ever wish for!” 

And with those words, the family hugs, a long hug which, even though freezing winds rip past them, seems to warm them to their very bones.
