Placenta/umbilical cord

[edit]

The intro mixes up the Korean words for placenta and umbilical cord. Placenta is "tae" (태/胎)and umbilical cord is "taetjul" (탯줄/胎줄), literally meaning "placental cord". The "taejang" applies to the "tae" which includes that portion of the "taetjul" that remains attached to the placenta after the umbilical cord has been cut. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.51.185.32 (talk) 03:16, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
