In this print, Dong Yong is shown reaching out with an outstretched arm, gesturing towards a green-colored vessel. The legend behind this paragon's story tells of his unwavering commitment to his mother, even in the face of great adversity. Dong Yong's mother was gravely ill and begged her son to find a rare herb to save her life. Despite numerous obstacles and setbacks, Dong Yong persevered, eventually obtaining the herb and saving his mother's life. The green color in the print represents the life-giving essence of the herb, as well as the vibrant foliage of the lush landscape in which the scene unfolds.
