In Joseon Korea, tigers were often depicted as fierce and powerful in paintings. They were also associated with high ranking government officials.

Over time, as the government became more inept and corrupt, drawings of tigers changed to make them look more comical and foolish. This was to reflect the ineptitude of those in authority.

This is also a reference to how the mod of this server just hopped in to make one goddam karma-farming post while completely ignoring the state the server is in.

Share some of your fun facts about Korea :)

This is a pretty sick brewery next to 경복궁 that I especially like to visit when I am with friends frome out of the country . Its got a pretty dope Hanok vibe and the food is delicious! The quality of the wings surprised me here and the korean pancakes are quite good. The beer is nothing special but it is worth visiting for the vibe alone!

Again stop liking all of the marketing slop being promoted on this subreddit.
