    "description_en": "The temple's statue of Wenchang Dijun came to Taiwan in the Japanese era with a merchant from mainland China, who carried it with him and worshipped it morning and evening where he lodged. After his business failed he lost interest in worship and left the statue in a thicket. One evening a woman found it by chance. Not knowing which god it was, she gathered several helpers to bring it back. An old man among them identified it as Wenchang Dijun, who keeps the register of official rank and fortune, and a small temple was built for it in Lane 45, Minsheng West Road. Many worshippers who came to pray afterwards found their prayers answered, especially those seeking success in exams and official careers. It is the only important temple dedicated to Wenchang Dijun in the district, and in exam season young students come to pray for success.",
    "description_ko": "원창궁의 원창디쥔(文昌帝君) 신상은 일제강점기에 중국 대륙에서 대만으로 건너와 장사하던 한 상인이 몸에 지니고 온 것이에요. 상인은 머물던 곳에서 아침저녁으로 신상에 절했지만, 장사에 실패한 뒤 신을 모실 마음을 잃고 신상을 덤불 속에 놓아두었어요. 어느 날 해 질 녘 한 여인이 우연히 신상을 발견했는데, 어떤 신인지 몰라 여러 사람을 모아 모셔 왔어요. 그중 한 노인이 사람의 벼슬과 녹봉 명부를 맡은 원창디쥔이라고 알아보았고, 민성시루 45골목에 작은 사당을 지어 모셨어요. 이후 찾아와 기도한 신도들 가운데 소원을 이룬 사람이 많았고, 특히 과거 급제와 출세를 비는 사람들이 뜻을 이뤘다고 해요. 이 지역에서 원창디쥔을 모시는 유일한 주요 사원이며, 시험철이면 젊은 학생들이 합격을 빌러 찾아와요.",
    "description_ja": "台北市文昌宮の文昌帝君の像は、日本統治時代に中国大陸から海を渡って台湾へ商売に来た商人が持ってきたものです。商人は像を身近に携え、滞在先で朝夕拝んでいました。その後、商売に失敗して信仰への関心を失い、像を茂みの中に置きました。ある夕方、一人の女性が偶然それを見つけました。どの神かわからなかったため、何人もの協力者を集めて迎え帰りました。その中の一人の老人が、人の官位と禄を司る文昌帝君だと見分け、民生西路45巷に小さな廟を建てて祀りました。その後、参拝に訪れた多くの人の願いがかない、特に試験や出世を願う人の願いがかなったといいます。この地区で文昌帝君を祀る唯一の重要な廟で、試験の時期には若い学生が合格を祈りに訪れます。",
