Lair of King Tongmyong's Unicorn : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kiringul
Kiringul (Korean: 기린굴; "Kirin's Grotto") is a cave in North Korea said to have been the home of the ''kirin'', a mythological chimeric beast that was reputedly ridden by King Dongmyeong of Goguryeo in the 1st century BC. In November 2012 the state-owned Korean Central News Agency reported that the site had been discovered in Moran Hill near the North Korean capital, Pyongyang. The North Korean government claims that the discovery proves that Pyongyang is the historic capital of Korea. Analysts outside North Korea have put the announcement in the context of long-running North Korean attempts to link the country's regime with the ancient Korean kings, and so position it as the legitimate heir to the legacy of Goguryeo. ==Discovery== On 29 November 2012 the North Korean state-owned Korean Central News Agency reported that archaeologists "recently reconfirmed a lair of the unicorn rode by King Tongmyong, founder of the Koguryŏ () Kingdom (BC 277-AD 668)." The discovery was said to have been made by the History Institute of the DPRK Academy of Social Sciences at Moran Hill, Pyongyang, only from the Yongmyong Temple.〔 According to the report, the words "Unicorn Lair" were found carved on a rock at the site.〔 The inscription is believed to date back to the period of the kingdom of Goguryeo (918-1392).〔 The report also states this "proves that Pyongyang was a capital city of Ancient Korea".〔
