In Korean Kings’ records, it said a creature had killed people near the capital of Joseon. So the king, Emperor Jung Jong, had to leave the main palace for 3 years for safety. This creature was never seen after that, no one ever knew what happened. It has seemed that the creature had vanished. And there was no picture or description of the creature,

Joseon Dynasty

There were many sightings of a strange object and creatures in East Asia, like the sighting of the flying disk in the sky, all seen by Korea, China, and Japan. But one of the strangest stories found in the Kings’ records was the creature that has killed people. No one knew for sure what the creature was. But we do know that it was a too big a threat for the king. So the king, Jung Jong, had to leave the Capitals palace and had to live in a separate palace for 3 years. After that, no one knows what happened to the creature. It remains a mystery to this days.
