I learned this aphorism from my book of aphorisms.
주린 고양이가 쥐를 만났다
ju.rin go.yang.i.ga jwi.reul man.nat.da
starving-PRPART cat-SUBJ mouse-OBJ meet-PAST-FIN
“The starving cat met the mouse.”
This is where the poor man finds an unexpected boon. A stroke of luck.
I’m not quite sure of the exact context of this. Does it just apply to financial or material luck? Or could it mean other types of luck, too? Did the cat meet a mouse when I won my unexpected victory against cancer?
