In Korean culture and mythology, the Baekdu-daegan Tiger and Kkeut-sae magpies hold immense significance as powerful and respected symbols. The Baekdu-daegan Tiger is one of the four cardinal direction guardians, along with the blue dragon, white tiger, and vermilion bird, representing the balance and harmony of the natural world. These four creatures frequently appear together in Korean art and architecture.

Magpies are often depicted alongside the Baekdu-daegan Tiger and other mythical creatures, symbolizing good fortune, happiness, and success. According to Korean folklore, magpies play a role in the creation of the world, and their appearance in dreams is said to bring good luck. Together, the Baekdu-daegan Tiger and magpies are significant symbols in Korean culture, embodying strength, balance, good fortune, and creativity.
