Recently, I was watching a Korean drama " Druna Hotel ". The plot is exciting and the characters are bright, especially the endless fashion show of IU Li Zhien. It is indeed pleasing to the eye. Here, I also heard for the first time the beliefs of Ma Gu from Korea.

There are Magu gods in both China and South Korea. The difference is that China is a beautiful girl and South Korea is a group of mother-in-laws.
Chinese Magu fairy is the goddess of Taoism , symbolizing longevity.
Magu is revered as Magu Yuanjun, and its immortal class ranks second only to the few gods such as Madonna Yuanjun (Xuanmiaoyu Girl) and Jinmu Yuanjun (West Queen Mother), and his status is very lofty. After the Tang Dynasty Yan Zhenqing "The Story of Magu Immortal Altar" was rendered, the Magu faith of many believers gradually formed. In April of the sixth year of the Zongda calendar of the Tang Dynasty (771), Yan Zhenqing wrote the famous "The Story of Magu Fairy Altar" in Fuzhou. "The Story of Magu Fairy Tale" is not only a famous calligraphy work, but also a biography of gods. In the article, Magu is a beautiful girl of 18 or 9 years old, with long hair to waist, she is unparalleled in the world, and is the only girl god in Chinese mythology!
Magu's birthday, collected by Heilongjiang Museum
According to legend, the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar is the birthday of Queen Mother of the West. Magu is . A young girl with a charming face and shy language, she went to Yaochi to participate in the flat peach conference. Magu brought longevity wine, sweet and mellow. The ancient said: "Liquor is a gift." Magu's birthday gift is both elegant and unique, and it demonstrates the identity of Magu fairy. In Nancheng County, Jiangxi Province, the legend of Magu has become the intangible cultural heritage of Jiangxi province . Locally, Magu wine and Magu rice and Magu tea are collectively called "magu three treasures".
In addition to her beautiful appearance, Magu also has a pair of wonderful hands, the so-called "finger like onion root", white and tender and slender! However, some people were puzzled and used Magu's hands for itching. The story comes from Jin Ge Hong "The Legend of Gods", Magu fairy arrives at Cai Jing's house, Cai Jing saw Magu's hands, actually said that they are a pair of good hands, hoping to scratch the back. This is even more terrifying than burning a piano and cooking a crane. In Magu's anger, Cai Jing's eyes bleed! You deserve it, whoever makes your back itchy, just ignore it!
Cai Jing's incomprehensible style also has the allusion of "magu scratching". Many poets like to use this allusion, probably because sexual fantasy is superimposed on it. Li Shangyin There is a poem "Directly send Magu and Scratch the back, may stay for Sang Tian", which is the highest style among many scratching poems. Like Kong Shangren 's " peach blossom fan " in " peach blossom fan ", "Just worry about tonight, one less Magu will sleep on her back." It's too straightforward! In the end is the red sleeves to add fragrance, or to enter it flat!
The Korean people call Granny Magu "Tiantaishan Magu". It can be seen that the legend of Magu comes from China. Silla Cui Zhiyuan practiced in the Tang Dynasty and received the influence of Taoism, which may spread the Magu belief of Nancheng County to the Korean Peninsula. Ma Gu's predecessor may be a princess in the Tang Dynasty. After she came to Jeju Island , she was called by the locals as Ma Gu's mother. In the Song Dynasty, the envoy of Korea paid tribute to China and paid homage to the statue of Magu. There are also legends that Ma Gu's mother-in-law came from China's Mazu belief , identity or Guan Yu 's family. During the Japanese rebellion in Imjin, Granny Magu also appeared to help Yi Sun-sin to resist the Japanese pirates.

According to Korean legend, the Korean Magu mother-in-law is not only the god of weaving and birth, but also the multifunctional god created by heaven and earth. So, probably because Korea lacks the role of a female god in the process of mythological evolution, the image of the princess in the Tang Dynasty is combined with Taoist goddess worship, forming the myth of the Korean mother-in-law Magu, and the myth of the Korean mother-in-law Magu did not Written records are more likely to become the product of adaptation by the communicator!

If the legend of Magu in China is made into a movie, Li Zhienlai may be good!
