- Curbing Gohng-ooh’s Drinking Habit
- 7 Gohng-ooh often drank too much and caused trouble.
- 8 One day, Sahng-jeh-nim gave him many bowls of rice wine and said, “As you are so fond of drinking, let us see how much you can drink.” Gohng-ooh drank the bowls of wine one after the other and became extremely drunk.
- 9 Sahng-jeh-nim then said, “You are not much of a drinker. You can drink no more than a bowl.”
- 10 From then on, a couple of bowls of rice wine were enough to make him intoxicated.
