There was once a beautiful mountain called Sun Mountain that was home to an old man who planted sun melons all year round. He was not only an honest man but also a compassionate man. He helped everyone, including beggars, with enthusiasm.

At the foot of the mountain lived two brothers who were poor and constantly hungry as a result. They heard about this kind old man and knew that he always took good care of the poor, so they had a wish to find him and live with him.
