Your little explorers will meet Min-jun, a clever boy with a beautiful pair of new blue shoes, and the Yagwanggwi, the "Glow-in-the-Dark Ghosts" who love to borrow footwear but aren't very good at math!. It’s a funny, slightly spooky, and heartwarming story that teaches us that being smart is often better than being strong.

In this episode, we meet Prince Lang Lieu, a humble farmer who enters a royal contest to become the next King. While his seventeen brothers travel far and wide to find gold and jewels, Lang Lieu discovers a magical secret in a dream: the most precious treasures aren't sparkly, they are grown in the earth!

Join us to find out how a simple grain of rice was used to create the square Bánh Chưng and the round Bánh Giầy, two special cakes that tell the story of the Earth and the Sky. It’s a heartwarming tale about kindness, hard work, and why the best gifts often come from the heart (and the garden!).
