It demonstrates the loving and caring \u00a0in this nation, and it is a patriotic song to evoke public\u2019s personal feelings. Those sounds, called the \u201cmenari note,\u201d are associated with children crying, the playing of willow pipes, the chanting of funeral casket bearers, and multiplication-table rote exercises. This melody is the archetype of sounds most familiar to and cherished by Koreans. () \u201cArirang is beloved by the Korean people and can be sung by virtually all Koreans, so it is clearly a critical factor to assure the unity of the Korean nation\u201d<strong>:<\/strong>The Korean In the early 1900s, Japan attempted to implement a cultural genocide in Korea.<u>Japanese efforts to control the Korean peninsula<\/u>\u00a0aimed to eradicate the Korean language, Korean family names, and Korean cultural practices. Korean men were coerced into enlisting as Japanese soldiers in World War II. Korean women were captured as sex slaves (known to many as the pejorative euphemism\u00a0<u>\u201ccomfort women\u201d<\/u>) in military rape camps until the end of the second World War.A tragic song of separation and lost love, Arirang is a national symbol not only of Korea\u2019s distant past, but also its turbulent modern history. It served as a symbol of Korea\u2019s struggle for independence under Japan, and its relevance has remained throughout decades of division and fraternal hostilities.\u201cArirang represents all the joys and sorrows in the history and lives of Koreans,\u201d says the National Folk Museum of Korea. \u201cIt is deeply rooted in Koreans\u2019 emotion as the cultural DNA.\u201d (Arirang, a song of joy and sorrow in modern times) People grow up with this music no matter they live in North and South, they all listen to this kind of music and it evokes their nostalgia feelings about their nations and cultural they carry with. The separation between two countries and the sad past make this music more exotic.<\/p>\n<p>(http:\/\/www.korea.net\/NewsFocus\/Culture\/view?articleId=104354)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\uc544\ub9ac\ub791 Arirang Korean original Romanization English translation \uc544\ub9ac\ub791, \uc544\ub9ac\ub791, \uc544\ub77c\ub9ac\uc694&#8230;\uc544\ub9ac\ub791 \uace0\uac1c\ub85c \ub118\uc5b4\uac04\ub2e4.\ub098\ub97c \ubc84\ub9ac\uace0 \uac00\uc2dc\ub294 \ub2d8\uc740\uc2ed\ub9ac\ub3c4 \ubabb\uac00\uc11c \ubc1c\ubcd1\ub09c\ub2e4.
