Korean Yong Lifespan: 1000 years The Korean Yong is a long thin dragon making it a subspecies of the Asian Lung. The Yong is the biggest lung species being 50 feet long and 8 to 10 feet high. They are narrower and longer than Chinese Lung and (contrary to popular opinion) can also be distinguished by having 4 toes relative to a Lung's 5 or Ryu's 3 and can also be noted to have larger scales than other species and fewer spines. Another thing that differentiates Korean dragons from other dragons is that they have longer beards. Also, you’ll usually see a Korean dragon with an orb, which is known as a “Yeouiju – 여의주” in Korean. This is a Cintamani, or wish-fulfilling jewel. It can be held in its claws or mouth. It’s believed that whoever holds a Yeouiju has the power of omnipotence and creation. Another feature that differentiates Korean dragons is that they have four toes to hold and wield the Yeouiju, as opposed to lesser three-toed dragons. However, unlike the western idea of d...
