Korea traditional bull fighting

in #festival6 years ago

I would like to introduce you Korean bull fighting in Jinju city today.
Korean bull fighting is a part of Korean traditional custom from Chosun period.
For the general public in Korea, cattle is the most valuable property in their family.
The general public has used cattle very usefully for agricultural purposes and for transportation, and has also sold in expensive price.

This is the special stadium for Korean bull fighting.
The stadium is similar to the Sirum Stadium, the stadium is covered with sand, and the Spectator seat is located around the stadium.

There are two doors to the cows entry, red door and blue door. The entrance is only possible through this door, and all entrances are blocked by strong log for the safety reason.

The cows come to the center of the playground along with their master, then attack each other by pushing their heads against each other.

After some attack, the weakened or frightened cow begins to flee from the opponent's cow.

Run away is to acknowledge defeat, the winner is no longer followed, and the game ends naturally.

Gamblers sit in the stands bets their money for every game, and they devide money when the game is finished.

This is a waiting place for fighting cows.
The cow that is showering with the hose behind the children is over 1 ton and is actually huge.

In the past, the battleship was very famous, but now it is a level that keeps it.
I hope that many people will be interested in fighting to continue the tradition.
