Wild ginseng that was planted by Gingsengkebi a thousand years ago. They say that Ginsengkebi put a prank spell on this wild ginseng where if you don't shout "I hit the jackpot!" the instant you find it, it'll turn to dirt. Thus, you'll hear everyone who comes across it screaming "I hit the jackpot!" at the top of their lungs. There's only a one in a million chance that you'll ever find one, however, making it terribly rare and expensive, so no one has ever let it turn to dust.
