The song of the unification of North and South Korea, the confrontation between ideology and innocence : Korea's
MC : Hello listeners in North Korea , it's time for < Do Myeong-hak's Inter-Korean Literary Journey > . It's a red albeos in progress . At this time, we will talk about the literary works of North and South Korea with North Korean defector novelist Do Myeong-hak . hello teacher
Do Myung-Hak : Yes , how are you ?
MC : What kind of work would you like to introduce today? It sounds like you came out with a song.
Do Myeong-hak : Yes, the songs I will introduce today are two songs about the desire for unification. One is titled “Ride the Gyeongui Line” and the other is a song titled “Let's go to Tongil-ro!”
MC : These two songs seem to have been made in South Korea, how were they made?
Do Myeong-hak : Yes, both songs were made in South Korea, and they are said to have been made for national unification education, especially unification education for the youth. In addition to these songs, the Unification Education Center under the Ministry of Unification has produced many songs and videos useful for youth unification education.
MC: Shall we listen to the song first ? It is ' Riding the Gyeongui Line ' .
<Take the Gyeongui Line>
M-I’m going-!! Everyone ride the Gyeongui Line-
From Pyongyang to Sinuiju, to the wide wilderness-
Yeo-I'll come-!! Everyone ride the Gyeongui Line-
My brother, the people all over the world who miss me-
South - The Gyeongui Line that comes and goes, love blooms -
Yeo-The Gyeongui Line is overflowing with peace-
South Korea - Walking through the barriers of 50 years of division -
Yeo - A new day of unification -
Everyone-see you in Seoul-! Take the Gyeongui Line train
See you in Pyongyang-! Take the Gyeongui Line-
Ah- along the railroad tracks of Gyeongui Line unification-
Let's meet together-!!
MC : While most of the unification-related songs we know have a sad mood, these songs seem quite upbeat. Do you see these differences in the lyrics too?
Do Myung-Hak : Yes, since teenagers were made as the main target, I think it might have taken into consideration the psychological characteristics of their age. If you look at the lyrics too, they do not emphasize the tragedy of division, but emphasize the will to achieve unification and the hope that unification will soon come. Previously well-known songs such as “Our Wish is Unification” usually have a strong, sad, and tragic feeling, but these songs seem to have tried to differentiate themselves by making them feel bright and upbeat.
MC : What kind of song is 'Riding the Gyeongui Line' and what are its characteristics?
Do Myeong-hak : Looking at the contents of “Riding the Gyeongui Line,” the time of unification was set virtually, not before unification. They are deeply moved by the news that unification has come soon, so they strongly express their hope to take the unification train and go to the mainland via Pyongyang and Sinuiju, or to meet in Pyongyang and Seoul and live in a unified world full of love and peace. The song is good, and the fact that men and women sing alternately one measure at a time is very pleasing to the ears.
MC : This time it's a song called 'Let's go to Tongil-ro'. This song is also upbeat, but it seems to have more weight than riding the Gyeongui Line. Let's listen together.
< Let's go to Unification Road >
The crouching tiger stretches
The whole country is excited
Cut off the oppressed and trampled years
Wriggling from Baekdu to Halla
Let's go to unification, let's go to unification
Comrades, let's unite and go out
The sun rises, the morning dawns
The heyday of the nation unfolds
MC : What can be said about the characteristics of this song?
Do Myeong-hak : Yes, “Let’s go to unification” seems to have more weight than “Riding the Gyeongui Line” because it focuses on expressing a strong will to achieve unification. Light yet powerful.
MC : How is the literature on unification in South Korea different from that in North Korea?
Do Myung-Hak : Unification songs made in South Korea do not imply any ideology or political orientation. It's just to contain the wish and will for pure unification. However, the content of unification songs made in North Korea is a way to put ideological intentions around. For example, North Korean songs such as “Nice to meet you” and “See you again,” which are also well known in South Korea, contain the phrase “the sun and the stars shine.” South Koreans take this literally literally, but North Koreans know what the phrase means. “Hae” means Kim Il-sung, and “star” means Kim Jong-il. In other words, they are songs that aim for unification under the authority of Kim Il-sung and a unified nation led by Kim Jong-il.
MC : What should we pay attention to when listening to these songs?
Do Myung-Hak : I don't think there's anything special to pay attention to. However, “Ride the Gyeongui Line” and “Let’s Go to Tongil-ro” are upbeat songs, but they contain light hopes and will for unification. If you listen to it with a mind that reflects on the meaning of the song, you will feel more moving and hopeful.
MC : Today , with teacher Do Myung-hak, we reviewed two songs created to draw young people's interest in unification . Teacher Do Myung-hak, thank you for your hard work .
Do Myung Hak : Yes , thank you for your hard work .

I majored in Chinese culture and newspaper broadcasting at Sogang University, and Chinese drama at the same graduate school .
This is a book introduction posted on the Kyobo Book Center website.
“If you meet a person in the middle of Seoul who says his birthplace is North, would you immediately think of North Korea = immigrants? Even in the multicultural era of 1 million, the number of North Korean immigrants is about 30,000, and it is not easy to find the point of contact because they are a minority among the minority in South Korean society.
The story of a North Korean defector who ended up living in a free democratic country is popular in East and West alike. However, the stories consumed are limited. For example, stories such as the difficulties experienced in North Korea and the process of escaping North Korea are constantly recalled through the media. However, the 'present' of North Korean immigrants who have migrated to South Korea is not well communicated. In this book, the author honestly unravels his little special love story and marriage story.
Falling in love with Hong Kong movies, Chinese dramas, and Taiwanese singers, the writer entered Sogang University's Department of Chinese Culture as a Chinese language expert. With one dream of becoming a film director, he meets 'Min' who entered the Department of Philosophy, where director Park Chan-wook studied.
'Min' was born in Onseong County, North Hamgyeong Province, defected from North Korea in 1997, and lived in Yanji, Jilin Province, China. The two got married after dating for five years and are now raising a daughter, a second-generation North Korean immigrant, together.
Author Isak Kim is a genre novel writer and translator who continues to be active in his work. The author's first feature, 『Hanseongbu, on a bright moonlit night』 was exported to France, and was selected as a pitching film for the E-IP market at the Busan International Film Festival and signed a dramatization contract. The first essay by writer Kim Isak, who says he has a lot of interest in history, women, and supernatural powers while contemplating a narrative that restores the erased voice, contains his own life in contact with North Korean immigrants.”
MC : Today's inter-Korean literary trip ends here. See you again next week. Goodbye everyone .
