General Dragon is the embodiment of "Gwanseumbosal," the god of mercy who grants the wishes of every creature in the world. People sought out "Gwanseumbosal" when they needed to make an important wish. "Gwanseumbosal" is said to have descended into the world of suffering as a dragon, to grant the wishes of those who failed to make a wish as a result of their own mistakes.
