Lore
Obang Shinjang are the five color-coded warrior generals in Korean folklore, each guarding a cardinal direction (north, south, east, west, and center) to protect against evil and maintain cosmic balance. These spirits are depicted as fierce fighters, wielding weapons to repel malevolent forces, and are associated with the five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water). In shamanic traditions, they are invoked for protection and harmony, symbolizing the interconnectedness of directions and elements in maintaining order in the universe.
