Description:
Öhö’s father died after being falsely prosecuted by the emperor. After that, Öhö refused to face the direction in which the emperor’s palace lay. Öhö’s mother hated thunder and lightning. Even after her death, every time thunder and lightning occurred, Öhö visited his mother’s tomb and tried to console her spirit.
