Gangnim
Korean · mortal · mythic · Recorded classification
THE CLASS IS REJECTED AND THE NAMED ONE IS INGESTED. The sources call the jeoseung saja 'a class of spectral bureaucrats' in as many words, which is the rejection this programme has applied to the Cwn Annwn, the Matronae and the aralez; Gangnim is the one the sources name, with an act of his own, and he is a record.
