All countries have something that is a strong symbol for their country. In New Zealand we have many such as the silver fern, kiwi, kiwifruit etc. Korea also has many different symbols but we are going to look at the tiger in particular. Korea sees the Tiger as a strong protective animal, and for a country has been attacked by China, North Korean, and Japan at different points in history the Tiger has been a symbol of Koreas resilience in these situations. We looked at a piece of art from Korea that is almost a satirical (making fun of something) image, but important piece of art to Korean people as they hang it in their house to protect their houses from bad luck.
We also looked at the story of a tiger that tries to trick a man, who is helped by a wise rabbit. You can watch it below. The Ungrateful Tiger from Ramón Luis on Vimeo.

We are going to look at different countries and see which things are similar to Aotearoa and which things are different. We are going to take South Korea as an example to see how we can later look at a country of our own choice.
