The Legend of Willow Pattern Plate


Two Hundred years ago there lived a mandarin and his daughter, Koong-se. Someone called Chang fell in love with Koong-se.
The mandarin would not allow it. He ordered a duke to marry Koong-se. Mean while Chang escaped and the king was furious. Then he started chasing them with a whip. Chang had some money so they went to an island.
A long time later, the king found them and he put them to death. The Gods turned them into doves.
